A tad bit slanted of an article.

I did like how Finebaum said, "In other words, should he give up on becoming the next Don Shula in Miami and try to become the next Bear Bryant at Alabama?"

I think using that comparison is a major reason why coaches would be leery of going to Alabama, especially an established coach.

Sudden Sam wrote:I thought someone with the ego of Spurrier would jump at the chance to reestablish the Tide a s a national power. I'm afraid Saban won't stay more than 3-4 years.

That link I posted in the other thread yesterday seemed to indicate the same thing and was the reason why Bryant Jr. and company blocked UAB from hiring the guy they wanted. If that scenario was true, then that is totally unacceptable.
