There is a phrase: NO COMMENT that can be very useful... I never trust lying SOB's like this guy, Barry Switzer, and Jackie Sherrill. Same category except as far as I know Saban is not a cheater. But if he can lie like a dog, he can cheat.

nicks doings the last few weeks reminded me just now of something, as did your post.
i used to watch nascar--turns out tho that i was a dale earnhardt fan, not a nascar fan...now with him gone, i coudln't care less... but i digress. what this reminds me of is when earnhardt shoved terry labonte the hell out of the way and won the bristol night race. i loved seeing that guy win, but not like that. he got a lot of boos that night, and i had a bit of a sour taste in my mouth from how he won.

saban regretted leaving college when he found pros not to his liking. but now he has to live with walking out on a team he committed to. he's hurting his reputation.

Make that TWO teams he committed to. He walked out on LSU too.

oh, i know. but everyone understood the desire to move on to pros. but it's a bitter taste knowing he only gave that two years. why bother if that was all he was willing/able to give?

i just get very frustrated when people walk out on a contract, or have a good year so they want to renegotiate--but have a bad year--can you imagine the reaction if a player was told we want to renegotiate because you weren't up to snuff?? but perfectly acceptable to put the owner on the spot. it's ridiculous.
saban is lucky he worked for who he worked for, huizenga is being quite a gentleman about it all.

haha, not where I'm from
cajun knows, but whatever
women have different rules
in trying to understand football

it's no problem samarta
I led the league in techs
when playing basketball
I'm used to having to sit
but I apologize if I said anything to offend you

c'mon though, regrets, I don't know
I left a job in November I could not stand
was making more money than the job I have now
but I'm much happier now
haven't we all taken a job that didn't work out?
you have to enjoy getting up in the morning
to do what you do everyday
and it seems like Saban just wasn't happy
in that situation

hopefully, he'll be happy in T-town
& successful!

happens all the time in the NFL. Contracts are NOT guaranteed and players are forced to take paycuts all the time.

Saban was greeted at the airport by this drunken fan...

This guy is a top notch recruiter. He was also linebackers coach at Nebraska under Tom Osborne.

Get ready, SEC.
