My Theory - Saban will Take a Hard Look at NY Giants Coaching Job

He is driven by his extraordinary ego, and with NY being the media epicenter, and he would crave the publicity frenzy that would be heaved on him in NY. The Giants and the Cowboys are two teams that he would want to coach (maybe a new LA team - Rams), but the room is not big enough for Jerry and Nick. If he doesn't pursue this, then he stays at Bama to close his career.

You should start a partition to make it happen.

My theory...LSU tears will be at an all-time high when Saban doesn't leave yet again.

If he were to go anywhere (college or NFL) I would think he would look for a place where the media crush and the fan zealousness are lower. Let him do his job and not be hounded all the time by the press.

Much like Belichick, the man loathes dealing with the media. Do you really think he would leave Tuscaloosa where the media fears him and treats him like a demigod, to go to New York where absolutely every move he makes will be scrutinized on a national level? I suspect New York would be one the LAST places he would consider going.
Over the last 15 years he's been a coach in Baton Rouge, Miami and Tuscaloosa. BR and Tuscaloosa are small potatoes as far at the media is concerned and they walked/walk on eggshells around him. Miami is pretty much ambivalent to their pro sports team. Now all of a sudden he "craves" public frenzy? Your theory makes no sense.

I would think that ship has sailed. I think he could have done it after the 2009 title saying he learned a lot from his time in Miami but I don't think he has the drive to try to turn an NFL franchise around.
Today's NFL is won by the QB and GM. Saban's brief tenure in Miami showed he was weak at both spots. He wins in college by having un-wavered support from the school, boosters, and conference. He creates an advantage before a down is played. In the NFL, with the salary cap, those advantages are neutralized.

Saban is retiring from Alabama...he tasted the NFL and didn't like it. Plus he probably watched the Steelers/Bengals game to confirm his feelings...

He won't ever leave, he'll just keep the possibilities open so he can keep getting raises. Remember when he played Texas?

Saban will not go back to the NFL. One of the major factors for his success is being able to stack the deck in his favor. He can and has done that at Bama and he's smart enough to know that he CAN NOT do that at any NFL team with the way the rules are set.

I doubt it, but I am certainly starting a thread at halftime.

I've said forever he would consider the job but it has nothing to do with any of the nonsense in your post.

I don't think he's going to the Giants, or anywhere else. Media isn't that big a deal. Your media obligations are your media obligations. He has enough concentration and focus to deal with that.
What he wouldnt have in New York is personnel control. They didn't want to give it to him in 1997 and they're not going to give it to him now. And Eli is what, 10 years older than Andrew Luck in the job that didn't open up? Not happening.

This is said every year for the last 3 years. These threads seem to forget it.
