Saban didn't get a single vote. Something tells me he was intentionally excluded.Mike Leach being on the list and Saban not being on it feels great.
The thing with Saban is that he can have the family and stability and still be able to attain his personal ambitions. If he went NFL and didn’t succeed again he’s tarnished. He can stay where he’s at help young people succeed and grow and continue to win titles and solidify his legacy at the GOATI certainly can't speak for anyone other than myself, but at almost the age of CNS I find myself not that interested anymore in climbing the ladder. I'm happy where I am and stability and family are more important than personal ambition.
BTDT and it's nice when you can exit the Rat Race.I certainly can't speak for anyone other than myself, but at almost the age of CNS I find myself not that interested anymore in climbing the ladder. I'm happy where I am and stability and family are more important than personal ambition.
Well, not so good isn’t exactly the characterization. I mean the man was about 500 with the dolphins without a serviceable qb , Jason Taylor thrived in Nick’s system at the Jack.Didn't he already try the NFL and was not so good, just sayin.....why would they think that would change ?? at his age, why would he want it.
I've never understood the idea that he failed in the NFL.Didn't he already try the NFL and was not so good, just sayin.....why would they think that would change ?? at his age, why would he want it.
I'd like to send the doctors a thank you card.I've never understood the idea that he failed in the NFL.
I remember how big of a deal it was that he turned the dolphins around his first year. I think they went from a three-win team to a nine win team immediately with no QB.
He coached an elite defense in year 2, and coached the DPOY up. They went into the season as a contender, after picking up Culpepper who wasn't healthy and struggled to 6 wins. Every coach in the NFL has likely had worse seasons that 6 wins. Unless you get that franchise QB, you will not be consistent. But, to Sabans talent evaluation credit. He wanted Brees after he was struggling and had little fan fair as a Charger, not the record setting QB Culpepper. The doctors wouldn't clear Drew.
He would've been great in the NFL. But I don't think it is as rewarding as being at a top college job. As a control freak...the challenges of the NFL due to the salary cap and other factors, such as having an owner is not appealing.
Nick had a very understanding relationship with Miami ownership. He probably had 5 years to turn the Dolphins into a contender. I think Nicks foray into the NFL, and the characterization as a failure had a lot to do with Steve Spurrier and his lack of trying with the Redskins. Nick quit the NFL right after Steve cut bait and from Washington so people viewed them about the same. The person we really have to thank for our coach is a small town girl from West Virginia. She wasn’t a fan of South Beach, preferred the smaller towns of college life. The talk was Ms Terry is more comfortable in small townsI've never understood the idea that he failed in the NFL.

FIFY.Saban didn't get a single vote. Something tells me Jimmy Sexton was consulted as to who could be considered.
