re: Just a thought,but....

The reason Fisher's offense was conservative under Saban was that Nick often wanted it that way. Saban has progressed from those days and tends to open it up a little more now. And as far as Fisher's last two years go, that again was Miles sticking his nose into things, particularly the Auburn fiasco of 2006 (which rumor has was the final impetus for Jimbo to decide to leave at the end of the season). And for all of you that have such disdain for Fisher, remember that the two best QBs that Miles has had (Flynn and Russell) were both tutored by Jimbo.
