He coached under BB in Cleveland so of course he would give him the respect but Bear Bryant is as much a legend as Vince Lombardi.

The interesting thing about Bellichek is that (except for Brady) he turns over players as fast as any college team. It would be interesting see Saban recruit at New Mexico St. Its the name Alabama that's the main draw. College is way easier than the pros. College teams play maybe 4 equal games each year. The rest are conference patsies or a lower division team on a money grab. The talent mis-matches are so big in college that coaching isn't as crucial as it is in the pros. That's why most college hot-shot coaches wash out in the pros.
