What Bama fans might not be seeing is that Saban is bigger than the school. They are winning solely because of Saban. He won a title at LSU. He was them at Alabama. He would win them at any major program he went to. Bama is not winning because of its school, or its fans or facilities. It is solely because of Saban. When he leaves, it will be a void like never before.

He is only at Alabama because he was mediocre in the NFL. If he had any amount of success in the NFL, he would not be at Alabama.

Chicken,
Stallings winning a national title and Mike Dubois winning the SEC completely negates that. Is Saban the best coach in the land. Yes. Will him retiring or leaving affect Bama, sure. Will that turn Bama into Ole Miss, no.

I'm sure when Saban decides to do something else with his life, there will be a lull in Bama football. If I were him, I'd be wanting to go out on top, not like Bryant in his last years.

Why do I like Nick Saban? You'd have to be a Bama fan living through the dark early 2000's continuous coaching search when all the media was laughing about how no one wanted to be the head coach at Bama. CNS saw an opportunity to sow some seeds in a very fertile environment.

Going back to the end of segregation in this league bama has at least one undisputed NC in every decade except the 80's

While a drop off eventually has to happen, it's been proven time and time again that Alabama will be back sooner rather than later among the nation's elite football teams. No coach is bigger than Alabama, and the notion that saban could do anywhere what he's done at Alabama is quite frankly ridiculous.
