re: Harbaugh a Great Coach, Saban a great recruiter?

Harbaugh is one of several coaches the past decade or so that, if given the same advantages as Saban both on an off the field, would do just as well if not better.
Saban, despite every advantage imaginable, has only gone unbeaten once, and needed officiating help in several games that year to do it. Saban has a roster of players where his second string could beat the majority of P5 teams. Saban doesn't have to worry about compliance issues. Saban had a Bama alum in charge of conference officiating. Saban had a Bama alum in charge of conference scheduling that was changing big match ups before the season began due to "bridge scheduling". The list goes on and on.
And when Saban still inevitably loses those big regular season games, the media swoops in to change the narrative every given year to give him a chance 120 other coaches would never get.
Reality is, with this set up, Bama should have MORE titles and more unbeaten seasons than they have. Coaches like Harbaugh, Meyer, Smart, among others, could do just as well with all of those advantages.
Not saying Saban isn't great. He is, especially when he has a competitive advantage. When he doesn't, he loses to teams like UAB and ULM.

Meyer and Smart are bad examples, they rely on talent advantages just as much (or more) than Saban does

I love how this fricker has whined and whined for over a month about the CFB committee being corrupt and "unfairly" putting Bama over FSU, yet here he is sucking off a coach that only won his first NC in the midst of a huge sign-stealing, cheating scandal. What a dipshit.
