Saban not wavering from LSU being the better choice

Saban obviously told him last night that LSU was a no-brainer.

Have we as LSU fans done a complete 180 on Saban? Coaches at LSU wins a National Title. Goes over to an arch rival, wins 6 National Titles and beats the crap out of LSU most seasons. Retires, becomes much more likable in my eyes, and steers the biggest available coaching name in all the business towards LSU? What a turnaround.

Did Saban say something?
Posted on 11/29/25 at 9:36 am to fifthdeadlyvenom
He is one of Kiffin’s mentors and wants him to have a great legacy. He knows what’s possible at LSU.

I think he’s always held LSU in high regard. Let’s not forget he tried to come back and Skip chose Les.

Saban doesn’t frick around. He isn’t a pussy like Marty.

I always liked him, even at Bama. Didn't hold it against him at all he went to pros although it hurt like hell to see him do it. No different than a lawyer in New Orleans getting called up to Bennett Williams in DC and made a major partner.
I damn sure didn't get my panties in a wad as Warner and McKay did and call him little Nickie and Nictator. They allowed their hatred for him to cloud their judgment and were more petty for it.

I never disliked Saban. I disliked that he was in Tuscaloosa and not Baton Rouge.

I think it's just that Saban is no nonsense. Winning in CFB is about having resources. He probably told LK "are you an idiot? What is there to think about? Go to LSU."

See what you did there

Not I. I have always thought he was the GOAT, I just hated he was doing it at that other school.

It's like presidents. They're twice as popular immediately before they announce they are running and right after the next cat takes over.

I think Saban wants to live vicariously through Lane Kiffin.
Posted on 11/29/25 at 11:05 am to TigerLifer18
i like him a lot more now than he isn’t coaching Alabama and says nice things about us yeah
Posted on 11/29/25 at 11:09 am to fifthdeadlyvenom
What did he say?
Posted on 11/29/25 at 11:12 am to fifthdeadlyvenom
Saban always viewed us as a threat due to the respect he had for the program.
He knows what it can be, regrets leaving, and wants to see Lane do what he never got to see through.
I hate Alabama, but will always respect Saban as a coach and leader.

Basically reiterated what he’s said for weeks: having to buy a new team through the portal every year isn’t sustainable and the fertile recruiting base for Louisiana/LSU is more conducive to long term/championship success.

Ah, well, it remains just as true. Thanks.
