Rank coach Saban all-time.

[Smoke]

He's up there. Seriously. WAY up there. 4 Natty's in 8 years. It's remarkable to say the least.

 

[Kid Vicarious]

Eventually number 1 if he isn't considered it already.

 

[BadMotoWeazal]

The Bear is dead.... Long live Saban.

 

[Smoke]

4 Natty's in 8 years even taking 2 of those years off. :eek2:

 

[wildturkey]

#1 in my book. Way more difficult to win today. Anything before the 1980s might as well be ancient history. Better athletes, more dispersal of talent, yet he still dominates.

^^^agreed

Paterno,Eddie Robinson,and a few other "legends"don't compare with his bowl success IMO.

 

[ugafan6612]

#1 definitely but it won't be worth it when he's in hell for selling his midget soul for all of them

 

[Shanemansj13]

He's okkkay.

Someone said on the radio today, " Lets ask this question 10 years from now when we can review all the sanctions from his winning years"

The Elite Dozen, in order

1. Bear Bryant
2. Joe Paterno
3. Tom Osborne
4. Nick Saban
5. Bobby Bowden
6. Fielding Yost
7. Frank Leahy
8. Bud Wilkinson
9. Woody Hayes
10. Knute Rockne
11. Barry Switzer
12. John McKay

Spurrier and Meyer can both make it thirteen if they take another title. Saban goes to #1 with another title.

 

[iruletheskool]

Bryant, Osborne, Saban, Devaney, Hayes, Rockne



In no particular order, and I wouldn't proclaim any as better than the rest.. All equally deified in college football history.

Should ethics be considered in our rankings?

Should it seriously though even if it doesn't pertain to Saban? There are a half dozen coaches on Smart's list that have done ethically shady stuff over their tenures.

I think it should be considered, I'm sure some people look at that as much as anything. I just wanted to post that gif and that looked as good of a place as any.

 

[rolltide14_0]

I think right now he's up there with the best of all time, but when he's done he'll be #1.

 

[TexasMan]
