re: So were you pulling for IRS or Saban in this one

so did he do all these dirty things when he was at LSU, or did he just turn into an evil little monster when he went to Alabama?

Of course he did. All big time coaches are skirting rules daily. However, this is what sets him apart at Bama. There, it's not just the football staff that he is controlling. He has a 1000% blind following from everyone from the university president to the local furniture story owner. He's built a network there driven by people that would have to take a long pause if it came down to saving the life of Saban over their own family and some would probably push their family member off the cliff without hesitation. People have to remember that you're not just battling Saban and his coaching staff.
