J. Jenkins: Saban was "awkward" laughed at Chizik
quote:
Hamilton, Georgia defensive end Jordan Jenkins was one of the top targets for both Alabama head coach Nick Saban and Auburn's Gene Chizik in the 2012 recruiting cycle, but the Crimson Tide and Tigers weren't able to woo Jenkins away from the home-state Georgia Bulldogs. According to an interview with the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Jenkins said that part of what kept him from committing to the Tide was a lack of personal connection with Saban. "I was a lot closer to Coach (Kirby) Smart than I was with Coach Saban," Jenkins told the AJC's Micheal Carvell. "When Coach Saban is around a bunch of football players, he's more open than he is when it's just you and your family. Coach Saban is a great coach but he's a quiet guy. It sometimes felt awkward being around him." Jenkins said that his family's lack of confidence in the long-term stability of the Tide coaching staff also played a role in his decision. "My mom didn't know ... she was always uncertain how long coach Sal Sunseri and coach Kirby Smart were going to be at Alabama. And then, a few days after [I committed], Coach Sal was gone to Tennessee." Jenkins also commented on Auburn head coach Gene Chizik's recruiting tactics, saying he found them hard to take seriously. "When coach Gene Chizik was comparing Auburn and Alabama, he put up a slide that showed they had more wins, more this and that ... then he started talking about Florida and how Will Muschamp follows in his shoes. I started busting out laughing. He said 'When I was at Auburn the first time [as an assistant] and after I left, Muschamp came here. Then I was at Texas and after I left, Muschamp came there.' He went on and on. He said 'Muschamp just follows in my footsteps' and it was hilarious the way he said it." Jenkins was rated the top player in the state of Georgia in 2012 according to 247Sports.

People are still talking about this kid and his recruitment?
Jordan wanted Bama
Family didn't want Bama
Compromise was made and UGA got a really good player.

Like most written articles, without seeing the video the meaning can be interpreted differently...
For me, I choose to interpret it this way:
Saban was a jerk and Chizik was relaxed and fun...
