According to this article, it started in 83, removed in late 80s and didn't return till Saban
The article is incorrect. 82 was the first year of the Eye. It was Broadhead's doing. DiNardo and his amazing performing Ego, removed it during their tenure. Saban brought it back and it will stay. The current EYE is a little too small and a few of the painting details are not being done properly, but it's still the most creative mid-field logo in college football.

For it to be painted free hand every game I think Eric doesn't a damn good job.
I'm actually thinking about putting it on my concrete at the front of my driveway

Actually, Curley Hallman brought the EYE back after a few years of hiatus. Then when Coach Dinardo came into the fold, he and Herb decided to let go of the past losing symbols, calling it "Curley's Eye".

Saban was right to bring it back, as was Dinardo for bringing back the white jersey for home games.
