Does Nick Saban hire incompetent coaches?
Does he keep people around his program that don't produce?
Is he dumb enough to hire people that aren't qualified for the job twice?

One poster said saban was laughing about getting rid of Steele even though he had him on staff making around 1 million dollars.

He demoted Steele from DC after his first season and the rehired him to an administrative role, he's been the lb coach at Alabama for less than a year I think. Dudes not a good dc, which is why he was demoted. Oh and you're obsessed with Saban

He hired him back to be a position coach and maybe he's a fantastic one but his track record as a DC and HC is poor, poor enough to lose all of those jobs.

If we hired Steele as a LB coach, I would see your point.

Remind me again why he wasn't their DC??

No. He demotes them, as he did with Steele in 2007.

He hired kiffin and had Steele on staff so I would say yes to your question that he might be a moron

Nick Saban has Lane Kiffen as OC and Kirby Smart as DC.
Two of the best coordinators in the business. Miles has Cam and Steele. Bama fans laugh at your shitty comparison.

He didn't rehire Steele as DC after he was fired from Clemson.

He hired him the same way you hire a recruiter, give him a job title and a coaching position he never coached before.

At least do this:
Steele: LB coach
Orgeron: DL coach
Brick: DC

Well he was CO-DC in 2008 when Bama went 12-0 before losing to Urban Meyer.

He fired Steele when he was the DC in Bama.

Clemson hires Steele as the DC. Gets fired.

Alabama hires him to an administrative position. Then they needed a LB coach so Steele did it.

So he hired him then fired him. And then the AD hires him to an administrative position. Then he coaches LBers, a demotion compared to being a DC.
