if the price of those national championships was to become that big a tool - would you make the trade? I say no - life is too short (and so is he).

With the Ok St. article, autograph (Manziel, Clowney, Bridgewater), and now the SEC teams, has the NCAA become paralyzed by all of this stuff? When are they going to drop the hammer?

If they were small programs they would drop the hammer.

In short, Saban was bullying the reporters and he can get away with it. This is what happens when you are untouchable.

I thought he did a great Sgt. Schultz. I know nothing.

Honestly, the folks that investigated this didn't even talk to him? He wants folks to believe he didn't read about it. OK, maybe. But does he really expect a decent press corps to accept that the university's investigation excluded questioning the head coach?

Bill made a statement and never once was Nick Saba asked about the situation prior to the statement’s release. To quote Dr. Evil, ‘Riiiiiiggghhhtt!”

But I bet the statement makes crystal clear sense to the NCAA.

he couldn't do that in the NFL - which is why he went back to college. These guys and their egos - they love being a big fish in a small pond (well, in the case of Tuscaloosa, a sesspool).

Whoa did Saban just storm off like that? Really?

You would think he could handle talking to the media at this point....


But then again this is a different kind of attention :oops:
