Overall, Kiffin is expected to bring more punch to Alabama’s attack. First, he’ll have to settle on a starting quarterback, of course, but beyond that he’ll bring a new flavor to Tuscaloosa, Ala., starting with a more up-tempo feel. Saban hinted at such a change last season when he told ESPN in September that, “It’s something we’re going to look at. I think we’ll have to.
“I think we need to play faster and will have to do more of that going forward,” he said at the time. “The only reason we haven't done more of it to this point is that our guys seem to play better when we don't [go fast] just because it's been our style and we've had reasonably good success moving the ball and running the ball.”
But that will change this spring. AJ McCarron is gone from under center. Kevin Norwood and Kenny Bell are no longer out wide at receiver. The conservative tendencies of Doug Nussmeier and Jim McElwain before him have been replaced by the more forward-thinking Kiffin.
Along with a quicker tempo, expect more playmakers to emerge under Kiffin’s rule.

There is nothing interesting about that quote at all.

I'm getting sick of Saban's whining. He needs to man up, and cool down on the diatribes.
The man's a baby, it's becoming more and more evident with every quote.

Lemme know when he goes HUNH - rush to the line - then meercat to the sideline - QB gets the cartoon signals from the board - then quick snap the ball.
