I've heard that Belichick is gruff with the media for a reason but he's a somewhat normal guy with his team and in his personal life. I think there are similarities between Belichick and Saban but far more differences with their personality.
saban is scared of nfl players now i think. almost getting his ass whipped in miami a few times changed him like les changed with jlee. he has bad memories of the nfl and wants no part of it. well if he didnt have to deal with people then yes. this is my version of the story so its probably true.
