re: Saban vs. Petrino.....

Say what you want Saban finished the year. Saban just admitted he wanted to return to the college game. Petrino bolted when things got tough. I don't think Petrino's leaving had much to do with wanting to return to the college game as much as it was that he couldn't man up and get through a tough time in Atlanta's franchise. Saban didn't interview for jobs when the coach hadn't been fired yet.
