From this morning's teleconference:
@AaronSuttles: Saban: Josh Frazier did a really good job for us. Came in heavy, we had to get some weight off of him. Been rotating with the 2s.
@AaronSuttles: Saban: Both QBs have played well. It's our responsibility to give both players a fair opportunity.
@AaronSuttles: Saban: I'm not answering hypothetical questions about the quarterbacks.

"Coach, if Blake Sims and Jake Coker were held at gunpoint and you had to choose just one of them to live, which one would you pick?"

"It's definitely not cool to put a hypothetical gun to the head of your therapist!"

"Coach, if Blake Sims knocked up your daughter and Jake Coker ate all your little debbies would either action weigh on your decision on who the starter would be?"

Pretty sure it would be Morris in that case

"But what about Bateman, coach?"

"Coach, if all five scholarship QBs couldn't play, who would take more Wildcat snaps? Yeldon, Henry, or Drake?"

"Coach, given the choice of Trickett, Coker, or Sims being your daughter's first kiss, who would you choose?"

If he didn't say Sims they'd say he's racist.

Saban: Trey DePriest will sit out Saturday's game due to a "minor NCAA infraction."

Trey is apparently out of shape anyway, gives Ragland/Reuben a chance to show what they can do I suppose. We need Trey'd wisdom of the D though.

Kiffin will be on the field as OC, not in the box.

Saban: DePriest was not something we anticipated. Foster and Ragland will start. Hamilton and Lee will back them up.

Saban: Eddie Jackson is "available" for the game. He will be on the travel squad to Atlanta.
Posted on 8/27/14 at 6:26 pm to RTR America
Good news on Eddie. Guessing he'll be really ready to play by UF. No need to rush it first 3 games

Saban said he usually lets the coordinators decide. Told a good story about how he used to always be in the press box as a DC, but Belichick told him to get on the sideline. You can do more to affect players on the sideline. Saban thinks Kiffin will be more effective on the field than in the box.
I like it. I've never been a fan of OCs being up in the box.

I recommend watching Saban's presser when it's on youtube. It was a pretty interesting story he told about it.
Posted on 8/27/14 at 6:41 pm to WW
Probably a good idea for him to be on the sideline with 1st year starting QB(s). Plus we know Kiffin doesn't trust the headphones in BDS

I'm interested to see they dynamic of all of the coaches on the sideline together in the heat of battle. Saban likes to chew his coaches out when they mess up, I want to see how Kiffin reacts.
