Anyone think Nick Saban leaves now?

It wouldn't be the first time he went job hunting after a big win.

only tards expected him to leave so I doubt they've changed their minds since they are as I mentioned earlier, tards

I think it's more that LSU fans want Saban to leave Alabama.

The only place he's going is to the National Championship

There's nothing more football related I want than Saban to leave Bama.

He stays at Alabama forever. Why leave -- set for the rest of his career.

After LSU won the title, Saban never seemed the same. He was looking for another challenge.

you don't know Saban very well.

And you do? How many times have you met him? Do you personally know him or his family?

Ego is a hard thing to figure, and even the dumbest, red cool aid drinkingest Tide fans should be able to see Saban has one of the biggest. It's part of what makes him, great, but it also makes him unpredictable. People with a big ego are always looking for a challenge and don't tend to get complacent. That said, I think there are only two moves that are different enough to intrigue him.

First, I wouldn't be shocked if he gave the NFL another shot down the line. Not anytime soon, mind you, but that is the only blemish on an impressive resume. I wonder is he can resist if a better situation pops up. Say, if Belichick retires and leaves a stocked Pats team. That's a little different story than the Dolphins a few years ago.

Second, USC. It's a totally different situation than Alabama and the SEC. Saban could absolutely own the PAC-10 and I'm sure he knows it. There is more media exposure there, and there is a huge recruiting base in the state that a recruiter like him would own instantly. Just look at how ESPN drools over ND and USC when they are good. LA is the biggest TV market in the US and they don't have the NFL. It is a prime time job, and if he gets antsy sitting in the same place for a long time at Bama and Carrol leaves, it is the only college job I could see him taking a leap for.

I'm not saying that Saban definitely ever leaves Alabama, and even if he does, I don't think it will be anytime in the next few years. However don't be stupid and shortsighted enough to believe that Alabama is the best and only job on Earth. Saban had it rolling here and would have gotten anything he wanted, but he was blind/stupid/ego-driven enough to leave for the next big challenge. Don't think he won't ever be tempted again.
