He was at FSU when they had the best run of Bowdens career for the last decade. He won a lot of awards and set up a lot of programs. Saban didn't start winning until he went to bama. No doubt he gave behind the scenes administrative support to the AD down there. In short he has given programs and especially the football programs what they needed to win. If DD doesn't start winning it's because he truly sucks. Also I feel good a top coach would feel comfortable coming here with getting effective support from a great AD. That's what I like. Hamilton never gave us true leadership.
