![]() Those 3 National Championships probably take most of the sting out of the zing. Saban's the best coach in the country, the total package, the numbers don't lie.

![]() To be honest and fair, I really don't think this is Spurrier zinging Saban as much as it is Spurrier zinging the recruiting process...

![]() Let's hope so, but I think Lame Kiffin might be there as a fall guy.

![]() There's always the ignore list, or the option of not clicking.
Thank you, drive thru...

![]() I'm not allowed to comment?
Maybe it's me but I don't think Saban cares much. He's too much of a robot and those national title rings are in the way |

![]() Few coaches in the history of college football have as many national championships as Saban does. And he's still got a lot of years left. The guy is doing something right.

![]() I would like to think that if I were given the choice, I would pick the guy who was more balanced in life, making time and demanding that the other coaches make time for their families. Someone who knew that sometimes losses happen, and said that even when they do you can learn valuable lessons and move on.
But then again, if the workaholic who makes all the other coaches on staff stay late at night got us multiple National Championships, I doubt we'd say anything close to what I said in the first paragraph.

If C2 doesn't trust you..

![]() To me it reads that Spurrier lets his assistants do their jobs. If Alabama is paying all these assistants and advisors all of this money and Saban is knee deep in everything, what good are they? How are they going to develop as coaches?
Whereas you look at our staff and guys like Coach Elliott, Ward, Mangus, Brown .. these guys have blossomed under Spurrier. I may be wrong but it appears to me like he does a better job grooming assistants. The only thing I wish Coach Spurrier would do more of is staying close enough to campus to swing by and see recruits. IMO, there is no reason for any big time target (or commitment) not to see him while in Columbia. I understand if there is a family vacation, emergency, or he is at meetings in Florida but other than that he needs to be around to shake these prospect's hands. He has done a pretty good job of that so far this year it seems though.

![]() To be fair, we would've won a National Title by now had we had the #1 class every year. We do pretty damn well with the #15 class every year. Saban's method isn't necessarily better.

![]() No way in hell you can say that. Maybe, maybe not. Saban gets the #1 class every year in large part because he works his ass off to do so. Never lose sight of that.

It's a hell of a lot easier to sell Bama than it is USC. They have a lot of history we don't have.
