Saban left Miami because he wanted to sign Brees after the 2005 season and Randy Mueller overrode him and signed Dante Culpepper. Saban decided to leave the following offseason.
I know this because Derek Henry’s legal guardian is one of my regular customers where I work. He’s a Dolphins fan and when he went to Alabama with Derek Henry for his recruiting visit, he asked Saban why he left Miami. Saban told him the above story and that his intentions until he left were to stay and coach the Dolphins until he was done coaching.
I would say that the decision makers, specifically our GMs, over the past 2 decades are more to blame than any lame duck coach that we’ve had. Saban is the best coach that we’ve had since Jimmy Johnson left. I will say that what Flores did this year with the roster and injuries, is as or more impressive than what any coach has done since Shula retired.
