Nick Saban?

Question

does anyone else hate him? he claims he left LSU to coach miami because he had done everything he wanted for college football. he said he was a new opportunity. now we know he just did it for the money. the only reason he took the alabama job is because of his ego. he sucked with miami and he'll suck with alabama. no matter what coach alabama has they'll still suck.

Answer 1

i think he realized that the dolphins are a team in turmoil. it was a set up for failure.. he did the right move by leaving..

then again, he never shoulda left LSU.

Answer 2

GET OVER IT ALREADY!! Would you announce to the National Television audience if you were changing jobs????? Of course not, because you wouldn't want to get fired before the next deal was done. Coaches come and go everywhere all the time, so what's such a big deal with Saban?
Coaches are only as good as the players they have. If they refuse to do what they are told because they don't like to be told what to do, then no coach in the nation is going to have a good team. I believe Saban had that kind of problem with Dolphin players, and may well have the same problem at Alabama. I hope not.
Roll Tide.

Answer 3

Saban was just a so-so coach at Miami. His departure leaves them in a precarious position, with the entire coaching staff signed for next year. He lost all credibility with me when he explicitly stated that he would not be interested in Alabama and then jumped ship for the bigger bucks at Alabama. He was just saying that to get more money from Alabama and they were dumb enough to give it to him. But he doesn't turn Alabama around, he'll be hard pressed to get another big-time coaching job again given his reputation.

Answer 4

Why is everyone shocked when he leaves a job. He has done this forever and Alabama will just be the latest stop on his way to something new. He has been a vagabond his entire coaching career and the Dolphins knew that when they signed him so they shouldnt be surprized. Notice they didnt get him to sign a deal like Parcells had to sign in Dallas (if Parcells leaves he cant coach another team next year).

Answer 5

Like him and glad he came to BAMA. He took his chance at the NFL and did not make it what he wanted. He seen potential at Alabama and so he is here. Deal with it. Think about it, with Alabama's record he may not have the chance to leave on his own if he does not turn the program around. Bama has no where to go but up and Saban sees that and will bring yet another National Championship title to the college. ROLL TIDE!!!

PS - Spoken like a true Auburn fan...

Answer 6

Yeah, we'll see where this one goes- I honestly have not followed Saban much. Alabama has had alot of rough times in the past 15 years since their last national championship- lots of coaches came and went. It's a little disheartening, but I'm still loyal fan of Alabama! Roll Tide!! (and who can say no to 12 national championships? ;))

Answer 7

it wasn't right, the way He did it. a lot like Ricky Williams retirement but, after all, besides being a game, football is a business. are You telling Me that You wouldn't leave Your job if someone offered You a lot more money to, do the same thing somewhere else? My family's security comes first and, if someones feelings got hurt, in the process of Me providing that, too bad. this is the modern NFL. expect a new coach every two to six years.

Answer 8

He has RUINED any chance that he will coach in the NFL again. He broke two unwritten rules in NFL coaching... 1. He flat out lied. 2. He lied to one of the more powerful owners in the league.

Answer 9

It is not Saban it's Nick Satin

Answer 10

That was awful what he did to Dolphin fans. If you can't trust a man for his word, than what can you trust him for.

The Dolphins are better of without a person like that.
