Nick Saban was one of the two people Lane Kiffin called before finally making up his mind about going to LSU over staying at Ole Miss.
Saban wanted Kiffin to "follow his heart" and it didn't take a genius to figure out that Kiffin's heart was somewhere in LSU.
The legendary Alabama coach advised Kiffin to build a new program altogether when he had spent six years, probably the best of his coaching career, building something College Football Playoff worthy.
On Friday's Pat McAfee Show, Saban gave justification for his counsel to Kiffin, but it was highly un-Saban-esque of him.
