re: Don't fret, LSU fans...this run by Alabama will end soon...

What Bama fans might not be seeing is that Saban is bigger than the school. They know that they are winning 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.

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.
