In fact he buckled and couldn't handle it in the nfl, is this the guy you want leading a team? A liar and a quitter?
"Ten years ago today, Nick Saban quit. The NFL got tough, and he ran away to Alabama.
After telling us all he would not be the head coach at Alabama, he was the head coach at Alabama. The next day, he held this press conference:"

With 1 championship Harbaugh will be a better coach than Saban, ever will be.
Saban is a one trick pony.. A real coach can win anywhere.. not cry and run home when he can't..

True in the nfl one ran home and the other 44-19-1 before an idiot owner fired him?
You must admit quitting looks bad on a resume? No?

Yet he won an nfc title? Orange bowl? Are those not big games? Turned around multiple franchises that were in the dumpster and made them relevant?
He has the #1 defense in the nation? He has the roster loaded in year 4, we fired him in year 4 didn't we??? We are playing hot potato with coaches while he built a contender in 4 years.
Homer really? I could say the blind love for baalke is being a homer? No one couldn't say anything about baalke during that time.. He was untouchable. I got suspended multiple times speaking the truth, our gm was trash.
One is successful, the other isn't? One turns franchises into winners, the other is no where to be found.
Our GM was terrible...eventually. But during JH's tenure, that roster was widely considered the best and deepest in the NFL for 2-3 years. The talent was clearly there at a championship caliber level. Teams had won superbowls with far less talent...like the Ravens.

2012-2014 Super Bowl window...
2012-2013 were arguably the worst drafts.. 2013 0 players?
What do you expect a coach to do with 0 to replenish that defense? Trade away Alex Smith and not replace him? Was this help or a coup????

You might feel that way. Nobody else will. Harbaugh has a ways to go before he's in the ballpark of Saban who has been college football's version of his mentor Bill Belichick.

Not get completely outcoached in the SB by his brother while having one of the most stacked rosters in football?

Saban quit and lied in the big leagues? He ran back to Alabama...
So quitting trumps 44-19-1, the most wins in a 3 year tenure?

The defense was beat in the nfc title game... Tank Carradine was on the bench.... 2 drafts pissed away... Cowboy was playing with one arm because our GM decided to draft flops...
There was no bench. Only Aj junking and Tank. carradine and a bunch of flops... It was an embarrassment and he still gets a pass?

When Harbaugh gets that title, we are going to see how much we value quitters, compared to 44-19-1.
"Nick Saban calls out Blake Barnett for transferring from Alabama, forgetting he once totally lied and then quit on the Miami Dolphins"

Couldn't handle the big leagues.. Did everything possible to run back home..
