Cosign. It's all about the QB. Seattle, Indy, Washington for example all turned it around and look like great teams for the future because they finally got their franchise QB

Naw, bad coaching can kill you. Example San Francisco and Carolina. Carolina had no reason finish below .500 this year. SF was a .500 team till they hired Harbaugh.

Saban left the NFL b/c he could not pull the shyt he does in college in the NFL.


Nick Saban, the undisputed emperor of college football, has everything he could ever want in Tuscaloosa: Three national titles in four seasons; a great shot at another one a year from now; the best players; no static from anyone, including the browbeaten reporters who cover him; and the whole world kissing his feet.
Thus it's no surprise that I think Saban, whose name has naturally come up in conversations among some NFL teams conducting coaching searches, should stay in Tuscaloosa.


Yet there's another, far more compelling reason Saban should stick to the college game: He's too much of a hard ass — and too much of a lightweight — to survive in the big leagues.

Saban is the worst kind of bully, an autocrat so consumed with his power — and making the people under him feel that power, at every opportunity — that his ill-tempered insecurity supersedes all else. The lower level the employee, the higher the likelihood that Saban would pull a power trip. Yes, he was a wonderful boss.

You can get away with that boorish behavior in a college town where everything revolves around the university's football program, and where you can lord your authority over players whose scholarships and NFL futures hang in the balance.


Dictator Nick Saban indeed better off staying in school instead of returning to NFL - Yahoo! Sports
