@neneshubby it really is. He indirectly legit has made other teams power houses plus all the rev$$ brought in to the schools. He “Makes teams great again” 1 example - Kirby Smart learned from Saban then went to UGA who now are on top. Dan Lanning learned from Kirby and Oregon is a top ranked team again
@neneshubbyАй бұрын
Brian Daboll - New York Giants Dan Lanning - Oregon Lane Kiffin - Ole Miss Kirby Smart - Georgia Steve Sarkisian - Texas Mike Locksley - Maryland Billy Napier - Florida Mario Cristobal - Miami Jim Mcelwain - Central Michigan Butch Jones - Arkansas State Charles Huff - Marshall Except Dan Lanning, Billy Napier and Brian Daboll (and he left for an NFL OC position) everyone of these guys left Alabama for a head coaching job. That’s a coaching tree. And I didn’t even mention Jeremy Pruitt, who left Alabama to take the Tennessee job because he’s not a current head coach. Anybody who tries to say this is not impressive is just a hater. I suggest you Google the words “Saban’s coaching rehab clinic“ and see how many hits you get.

The last statement that Coach Saban said, about coaching "the rookie that ain't quite there" is more serious now than ever before in college football. Because of the portal.
