Michigan State
LSU
Miami
All 3 places he left abruptly in a fashion that pissed off the fanbase and 2 times he outright lied to people about leaving. In LSU's case he left us on Christmas Day.
Why any Alabama fan thinks anything he says is the truth baffles me. He is obviously the best college coach there is right now and they should appreciate what he's done for them.

Was he actively recruiting making personal visits to players house and telling their parents he's not going anywhere during the Michigan or LSU departures?

Yes, there was no indication until he quit in the middle of the Iowa game.

This is normal Saban behavior, every time.

Y'all act surprised that coaches would act like this.
Tuberville literally excused himself from dinner at a restaurant with recruits, to never be seen again when he left Texas Tech. Coaches DGAF.

One thing Saban's resignation at LSU did was to show McNeil the harder side of college football, the one that is about the bottom line, and not the rah-rah, feel-good stuff you get in the locker room or in your living room. It opened the prospect's eyes to the realities of college football at its highest levels, and he can't exactly say that he liked what he saw.
"I guess the one thing that it showed me was that this is all a business, and that there is a little bit of an ugly side to it all," McNeil said of Saban. "He (Saban) sat in my living room two weeks before he left and told me that he wasn't going anywhere, so, I after hearing all that, I guess you could say that I wasn't too happy with the way that things worked out."
