Especially given the loss in the Iron bowl this weekend... Say he leaves...
Is Saban vilified by Bama fans like he was by LSU fans when he took the Bama gig? Will they turn on him like they did their kicker this weekend? Will be become the devil incarnate? Will the statue come down?
Or will he (maybe with some time) be held on a pedestal? Enter the Bear Bryant pantheon of Alabama Sainthood? Will Bama fans talk about him like the negatigers do, with such lust for a bygone time?
What similarities/differences will we see with their fan base and ours if and when he bolts for the Austin pastures.

1. Jesus Christ why?
2. They shouldn't be bothered by him going to Texas. Its out of conference as opposed to same conference/same division.
I'm hoping he eventually goes to Tennessee and some of the more extreme wacko moron Bama fans would off themselves and everyone else would be better off.

Dear SabObsessed LSU Fans,
PLEASE STOP!
You're making us all look like jealous wussies with sandy vaginas.
I, like many LSU fans do not have a vagina, sandy or otherwise.
k - Thanks in advance.

You'd suck his dick to have him back.

The man has won 3 national championships for Bama. That's more than most teams have in their entire history. He is already an Alabama legend and his status as such is as secure as it could be. Next question.

There may be some of the lunatic fringe that villify him, but I gotta believe most fans will respect what he's done for our program.

Enter the Bear Bryant pantheon of Alabama Sainthood? Hell no. Bryant would have kicked the 30 yard FG, and Mary Harmon would have never bitched about feeling "unappreciated."

While it's true that LSU fans turned on Saban when he took the Bama job, who could blame them? He lied multiple times about being interested in the position, even going so far as saying on more than one occasion "I will not be the head football coach at Alabama." When he left Baton Rouge for Miami, most LSU fans wished him well, despite the fact that he broke the news that he was leaving on Christmas Eve.
I think there are also some feelings of "what could've been" as well. If Miles had bolted for Michigan in 2007 as ESPN had reported, I think there is a good chance that Saban would've ended up back at LSU.
