Fans blindly support Saban, Meyer

Fans blindly support Saban, Meyer

“Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men.”

That is one of the most famous quotes in the history of global politics, uttered by Lord Acton in 1887 in a letter to Bishop Mandell Creighton.
Which brings us to Urban Meyer and Nick Saban.
These are the two best coaches in the SEC, perhaps the entire nation. Collectively, they own three of the last six BCS titles.

Nobody would accuse Meyer or Saban of being warm and fuzzy, or even nice or pleasant. I’ve met both and you could catch a cold sitting next to either.
