It order to see it, it requires people to extend NS the credit he's earned and deserves.

There are few on this board more critical of Saban than I am.

His resume at LSU speaks for itself:

75% win percentage,

The only 13 win season in school history,

First NC in 45 years,

First victory over Bama in TS since 1969,

Only the second coach to register multiple 10-win seasons,

First outright conference championship in 15 years - only the 3rd LSU coach to win multiple conference championships,

First head coach to lead LSU to 5 consecutive bowl appearances (although we've had runs over multiple coaches in the past - plus LSU/Mac got screwed in '69 or he would have led a run of 7)


Negatives - loses first non-conference game as LSU head coach - and to UAB, at that. Lost last game as LSU head coach - a bowl game. Constant flirting with NFL teams was a distraction every off-season. Was/is a gigantic prick.
