Personally I can't believe CFB and the NFL blackballed Saban as a player. Teams usually bend over backwards for a 5'4" CB.
Luckily, you don't have to be taller than 5'4 to finish better than 3rd in your division.

Looks like you do have to be taller than 5'4" to be successful outside the SEC though.

Harbs isn't doing anything to help prove that. 6'3 + 11 draft picks in a conference that went 3-7 in bowl games = 3rd in his division. Mark Richt feels your pain.

Not sure I've ever seen two people so rustled by someone else's success like this. Envy is a hell of a thing, especially when it comes to the weak minded.

5'4"+5 years in the B1G = 0 conference titles, 0-3 in bowl games, 0 season with 10 or more wins.

Harbaugh thru 2 years in the B1G: 20 wins
Saban thru THREE years in the B1G: 19 wins.

Is anyone shocked he jumped right back to only place he was successful as a coach after testing out the NFL and failing?

Just shut the fuck up. By your dumbass standards Bill Belichick's a lousy HC because he didn't have a winning record in Cleveland. Will you ever stop hugging on Jimmy Jam's junk?

How many top 10 recruiting classes did Michigan State have when Saban started there? What kind of sanctions was Michigan under when Harbaugh took over?

Anyone who can lead Cleveland to the playoffs and win a playoff game is a first ballot HOF'er. As a matter of fact, the last HC to win a playoff game as HC of Cleveland is........Belichick.

Thank you for helping prove my point. As long as Saban can be in the SEC, surrounded by the richest recruiting territory and bringing in the top recruiting classes -- he is a great coach.

In the B1G, he was no better than George Perles and much worse than Mark Dantonio.

But he had a losing record. So he sucks just like Saban right? Will you ever remove your head from your ass?

So Harbaugh walking into a dream situation with a wealth of talent on the roster proves that he is a better coach than Saban walking into a program with next to no talent and hit with sanctions? You have got to be trolling.

Why would I care what Saban did in a completely different, tougher situation 20 years ago? Harbs has twice (if not more) the talent in a weaker conference than Saban inherited at MSU and still can't do better than 3rd in his division. Apples to oranges. I bet Richt is glad Jimmy is taking the whole "doing less with more than anyone" title off of his back.

I just figured out yet another bullshit excuse why Jimmy Jam owns Saban & is a better CFB coach. Saban went to Kent State. Jimmy duh Great went to meeeechegan. Why can't you just acknowledge the ann arbor asshole's greatness?

At least Richt has won preseason Mythical National Championships. Harbs can't even win one of those even with all that NFL talent.

I honestly feel bad comparing the two tbh. Richt has always seemed like a good, normal kinda guy. Complete opposite of Harbs in that respect.

NC...hell, Jimmy Jam can't even win a preseason B1G championship.

Must be tough to be second banana to a coach Saban rejected for a job.

Raise your hand if you are surprised that @TrustMeIamRight took the cock out of the OP and put it in his own mouth.
