Semi-agree about the last touchdown, but the thing that makes Saban a great coach is that he pushes himself and his players no matter what the "accomplishments" are that have been reached. I read his book, very inspirational and some great pointers to succeed in anything. He's the only coach in 70 years to win a MNC at two schools, pretty impressive.

The secret ingredient? MY BALLS
HA...anagrams.
Chef, you really don't know anything about college football. Does anyone here actually agree with this quoted passage? Do you have any clue how many years of college ball Colt McCoy started for Texas? You may think College is a simplistic game compared to the NFL, but this quoted passage is ridiculous to even consider. Bama gave up in the 3rd Qtr. Bama woke up when the score got close in the 4th. They woke up and smaked down Texas and the freshman QB. That's what happened. It would've been a different game and maybe a Texas win if McCoy played the entire game.
Your example what ifs are nothing more than inaccurate hypotheticals too, btw. When has someone been knocked out of a championship game and the backup has come in to win the game? Tom Brady had an entire season to replace Bledsoe. He didn't come in during the Super Bowl and win it for the Pats.
I think Pete Carroll would be a complete FOOL to jump to Seattle merely to be the coach. Yes it's basically a huge pay raise but if he doesn't get player personnel decision-making...he's a bigger dope than I thought he was:dunno:

Florida State gave up 14 Ws for team-wide academic fraud. Bush's situation and Joe McKnight's situation hardly merit anything more than giving up Ws and, fine, Bush gives back his Heisman which is a Reggie Bush/Pete Carroll humiliation moreso than a USC humiliation. There have been quite a few players being academically ineligible under PC throughout the years, but that is an internal school issue, not a broader NCAA issue.
If the NCAA were to put the team on Bowl probation for 2 years, that wouldn't be a death blow to the program either.
No drugs, no violence, no academic fraud....USC might need to be slapped around a bit but that's it. Tim Floyd was a much more of a loose-cannon corrupt coach than PC was...

It just make sense to me.

The Falcons were interested in giving him total control. The Chargers were too. I think he even met with Wayne Huizenge of the Fish at one time...
I have no problem with him getting complacent at SC and looking for a new challenge. I guess I'm surprised he'd settle to be just the coach :dunno:

To me, it's a quality of life issue.
I don't know of a single coach that enjoyed the NFL over college. Hell, even Jimmy Johnson said he enjoyed college more.

Hmmmm....I'm not sure, t-rock. I mean, McCoy only won more games than any other QB that ever played college football. I'm not sure that would have made any difference really since Gilbert did have quite a bit of experience under his belt....26 total passes before the title game I believe!
All cynicism aside, Gilbert did an admirable job of filling in under extremely difficult circumstances but the absence of Colt McCoy was without question an immeasurable influence in the outcome of the game. I'm not saying that Texas would have necessarily won had he been in there, I'm only saying that their chances of winning would have been substantially enhanced.
Time to move on....it's over.
What if Payton Manning isn't the QB of the Colts?
I'm pretty sure the Colts would still be one of the most dominate teams this decade. He is just one guy.

C'mon Will. With Curtis Painter as their QB???? Surely you jest....Manning IS the Colts!!! His importance to that team cannot be overstated IMO. Perhaps the greatest QB talent to ever play the game and he ain't done yet.
The hardest position to play in sports is QB. No other sport relies on one person other than a goalie in hockey or soccer among major sports, but they do not run either the defense or offense.
