Its just befuddling why a fan cares about the personality of a coach.


As an alumnus, I want those who represent my Alma Mater in the public eye to be respected for their abilities as a leader. Which includes their personality and engagement with those around them.

As an alumnus, the football coach's personality does not matter as much as the results. Running a dirty program is one thing but mere personality doesn't matter.

You don't think Saban is a good leader??? Because he's not warm and cuddly???

Good god, man. Regardless of the warmth of a person, the true evidence of leadership is whether a guy gets those under him to consistently perform at their highest level. This is true for coaches, military officers, CEOs, etc.

Saban's teams consistently play with intensity, intelligence, poise, and with precise execution. Clearly, his players have bought in to what he's selling, year after year.

Yea, he's not warm and fuzzy. But to me, he's one hell of a leader.
