Didn't really go into detail in the article, quite possible could have been a joke...but if real, is this really deserving? He's been there 2 years! Who's to say he doesn't peace out to go coach in the NFL in another year?!?!

Definitely too early. However, I think he stays at Alabama for a long time and retires their. He just seems like a fit, and is obviously winning.

He will always have Alabama as a top team, but the SEC is so tough and competitive that the balance of powers will continue to change from year to year.

I thought he was a great fit at LSU too.

Did he tell you he was staying at LSU while you were fawning over him in the locker room? (Ha ha)

I think they have a statue of every coach who has won a national title there, right outside the stadium.

They gave Tebow a plaque. If you're gonna do that might as well give Saban a statue. Gotta keep up with them there Gators in Tuscaloosa

Great coach, horrible person. A blatant liar, that can't be argued.

Correct, I remember hearing that Alabama builds the statue and then the concrete base for the next statue as motivation for the next coach to work to get his built.
