Your entire argument sounds like it's based on "from afar observations" based on lazy stereotypes, misconceptions and old worn-out assumptions.

Nick Saban failed with an NFL team
That Dolphin team was in cap hell before he got there. A ton of bad money on old defensive players.
He was smart to leave, Miami was going no where then, and in the future.

you have to be an absolute moron to believe otherwise.... within 2 recruiting cycles, he be fielding a team of guys that would compete for a NC within their careers there....
they have the location, facilities, and legacy to be great.... they made bad hires after Carroll... that's why they are where they are...

Saban could win at any big time program within 4-5 years. This is why i cant believe Texas didnt send him a blank check to replace Mack Brown. Guaranteed championship(s) would be worth whatever they had to pay.

At USC, some celebrity will ask the athletic department if he can hang out on the sidelines and spend some time with the players. Nick Saban will say no and then they'll do it anyway, and then Saban will have to make a choice.
Saban would make it clear before signing that it is his way or he's out.

If Petey wanted the celebutards off the field, they would of been gone.
But Petey is a guy who loves circle jerking with celebutards and being in the limelight, so he was all about that shite.

They probably would have one last night and obviously would beat the exact same team that is being coached by Helton

If money was Saban's primary motivator, he wouldn't have taken a pay cut to leave Miami.

It's such a ludicrous idea. There was nothing they could offer Bama wouldn't match. Texas is wealthier but we're talking $10 billion versus $3 billion. What exactly were they gonna offer?

Nick Saban could take 22 swimmers and coach them to win the College Football National Championship.

Swam at Bama, can confirm

We should find out. If it doesn't work he should take the Auburn job.

Dude... easily
Give him 2-3 years at pretty much any major school and he would turn them into a contender. USC would pull in so many top tier recruits.

What does your response have to do with mine?

I say no way and no way he would even consider going there.
Saban couldn't do shite with the modern day USC culture. The players have always been the stars, not the coaches. There's a lot of outside influence that you don't get in the SEC. Alabama deals with crazy boosters. USC has to deal with boosters plus celebrities, wannabe agents, a much larger media presence that he won't be able to bully, plus institutional pressure from an arrogant athletic department and private school administrators.
We've already seen one time what happened when the players decided not to buy his Napoleon act.
He succeeded at Alabama and won everybody over because they already had a culture where a good head coach becomes a cult figure. The coach is encouraged to be a dictator.
USC has had great coaches, but they weren't celebrity coaches when they came in and they were often overshadowed by their Heisman-winning players. Pete Carroll was a mediocre NFL coach when he got there. John Robinson was a John McKay assistant. John McKay was a long-time assistant coach before he became a coaching legend.
Saban has had a couple of Heisman winners at Alabama, but the perception was that Saban got them those Heismans. But Ingram and Henry aren't iconic, larger than life college legends like Simpson, Allen and Bush.
So what kind of coach would win at USC? Probably an outsider who lets the kids have fun and embraces the "Hollywood" culture, but also commands respect and doesn't let everyone walk all over him.
