It may not be dishonest but it's damn sure misleading! I would expect more integrity from an established coach of a top five program. He knew this would tick off LSU fans...I would expect more class from this guy but if you talk to his ex-Miami players, maybe not.

How about listing the 53 NFL players Saban did NOT coach in Miami?

Demetrius Byrd is an outright lie, unless he literally counts "recruited" –I have no idea if Saban ever spoke with him. He came to LSU in 2007. I don't care to look at any more.

What is really stupid is that it says "recruited". Hell if you use that criteria you could list every single player he ever talked to or sent a letter. No matter if he signed or not.

I guess I understand why some are miffed, but this seems like a pretty smart thing to do to me. He's taken some license here, but I wouldn't call it dishonest.

@vuvuzela ...I don't think it's envy but it damn sure makes him look stupid that Miles coached the LSU PLAYERS haha too funny!

I love the fact that his picture states "Including 33 players from the University of Alabama." Should also say "and 46 players from LSU - half of which never played under him"

I can't believe he's claiming some of these guys. I can name 5 that he's never even met.

So who is going to do the same thing for Les Miles? We could count all of his Ok. St. players.

Saban def had a solid few from his Michigan State days. Dunno about Toledo.

What can you say? Honesty has NEVER been a strongsuit of either gumps or saban.

I'm surprised they didn't include every drafted player on the Miami Dolphins roster from '05-'06.

A couple of things

Wheres the list of "Medical" discharged for the kids that were culled?


And its must be $abuns fault that McClain washed out of the NFL. I mean if you take the credit for things you were not involved in than you should take the blame also.

A better study would be: how many actually got 2nd contracts with the same team

This list is horseshite. So, Saban take credit for recruiting players Miles coached. Miles could compile his list and would end up with most of the same players at LSU. I guess Miles should take credit for Brandon Weeden, Dez Bryant, etc...Bama claiming more things they don't deserve...Shocking
