re: Saban Joining College GameDay Crew as Analyst

They're probably guarding against the appearance of using inside information. The broadcast team does interviews with both staffs during the week. I'm sure some coaches give them stuff that's not to be used before the game - "we noticed something about their punt protection packages and we've got something prepared to exploit it" "both our starting CBs are more banged up than we have let on" - that type of thing.

Yup, this is what I was getting at. It might be more of an issue for Saban and Bama if Saban is having in-depth conversation with DeBoer, the staff, and players that go beyond the typical broadcast team hanging around practices and interviewing coaches/players the week of games.
