Just looking at the last 20 years.

Urban Meyer, Pete Carroll, Stoops and Osborne are both at roughly 81% winning %.

Bowden and Paterno are mid-70's.

Saban is in the low 70's with Tressel and Spurrier.

Below them is Mack Brown.

Just for comparison.

You can't spout MNC's like you can Super Bowls for Belichick. You just can't. Too much luck and opinion play a factor.

Case in point: Only ONE of Saban's 3 BCS Titles was undefeated...other teams could have taken his teams place in the big game and other teams could have won.

But they didn't. He's literally assembling a machine that will not slow down as long as 2010-like meltdowns don't happen. Every year everyone is going to realize this in the preseason. As long as Saban is here, Bama is the number one team every year until proven otherwise. No other coach can claim that.




And going back to Saban sucking in the NFL...so? Coaching in the NFL isn't harder than coaching in college, it's just different. A lot of successful NFL coaches probably wouldn't have been as good as Saban has been/will be in college.
