Define tactical.

As someone else already said, this whole thread is moot. Saban would already know precisely what is allowed.

Exactly.

And has had his people make it clear to everyone what is and isn't allowable to keep away from anything that would trigger issues.

Tell you what...since this is obviously of high interest to you, since you started the thread, why don't you go Google the appropriate NCAA rules regarding consultants and what they can and can't do and then post for everyone to see? You're the one alleging that there was a violation...and maybe there was...but why don't you post the rules?


I never said any of this happened. I asked what repercussions exist IF the violation occurred.

I also already posted a part of the rule that would seem to suggest that the story (as told) would represent a violation

How he tells the coaches may be important as well. He probably can't say, "We need to run play X because the corner keeps turning his hips the wrong way." He could probably say, "The corner keeps turning his hips the wrong way when our WR does a double move." One is just stating a fact. The other is giving direct input on how to run the offense.

Forget about the guy in the houndstooth hat, those are some pretty sweet nachos.

My guess would be that there is no set punishment - probably something along the lines of prohibition of analysts or reduction of non-on field staff? Not sure it's ever been punished because it's so small a thing, new a thing and something that could only be proven if a staff was insanely obtuse, blatant and left a blazing trail of evidence.

Good 'ol Nick Belichick. Lol

practice with former nfl players

Hire former HCs as "analyst" and "Grad Assts".

Bumps into recruits during dead period.

He IS to be worshipped. Nobody does it better.

It would be as simple as stating hypotheticals. "If I were still coaching at USC, I would think about (fill in the blank)."

You're smart enough to know how stuff like that works. It seems you're the one being obtuse.


Did his idle comments assist a coach in making a personnel or on the field-related decision? If it did then he provided assistance. It's not a hard concept.

You guys watch too much TV. None of this would hold up in front of a judge

What does this even have to do with the above legal activities that Saban participates in to win football games?

Yea - I'm pretty confident in my abilities to assess a bylaw or agreement structure and then assess whether it is being broken, kept or followed.

This rule is written in a way that there are almost no specific ways to break it without being a total moron. It would be incredibly easy to litigate your way out of 95% of any issues brought up because of this rule.

Rules? Apparently Alabama didn't start following them until their head coach was buddies with the NCAA president



Nick Saban and Mark Emmert

Or a disgruntled Joey Freshwater who now works for another school wants to chit chat with the NCAA and is willing to sign his name to it.

None. We're Bama.

You should know that by now.

I'm sorry...I missed your post where you provided a link to any source specifying what the rule actually states.

Actually, I see a lot of people quoting what they think the rule says, but no one has provided a link to the actual rule.

That's how you get blacklisted from coaching college football anywhere and a tag put over your name of "unhireable." That's the ultimate unspoken rule of college football.

And he would have to throw Sark under the bus to do that. Kind of a shitty thing to do to a good friend, Sark, and the only guy who was willing to give you another chance, Saban.

I would just like to point out my original post was directed more at the validity of said "insider", whom often enjoy adding unconfirmable "tidbits" to make their info look accurate.
