Just my opinion here, but one thing I'm not seeing in this thread is the fact that this is pro football's 2nd best team that reached out and wanted our OC. It seems that many people are totally convinced that this happened because CNS wanted him to move on... and that could (in part or in whole) be true. In the past, when Saban tired of coaches and the time came for departure, it was an obvious lateral move (think certain OC's to other college teams) - and this is not what we're seeing here. Whether we'd like to admit it or not, being a successful OC for Atlanta is a better position for CSS than being a successful OC for Alabama (he's "been there and done that" at USC in the past)... especially if he aspires to one day coach an NFL team.
