A New Book Details The 2016 Sideline Explosion Between Saban & Kiffin

by Larry Leo

June 20, 201724 Comments

Remember the above riff between Alabama head coach Nick Saban and then offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin? Well, Senior Bowl executive director Phil Savage has written a book called “4th & Goal Every Day” that will soon be released and inside it details that explosive encounter from last September. Per Savage's book...

quote:
“Kiffin said into his headset ‘dumb players make dumb plays,’ which all the Crimson Tide coaches heard. Saban snapped back with ‘no, dumb offensive coordinators call dumb plays.’ There were probably a few expletives left out.”

A saban protege writes a book (with Lord sabans permission) and blames the dust up on someone else? I am shocked.

That wasn't a riff. That was an arse chewing.

Saban has eleventy national titles. He is beyond reproach

Up 28 points in the 4th and he is chewing on his coordinator. Guess that's why he is one of the best.

OGTiger•101 months

It doesn't appear that Kiffin even had a headset on. Or did I miss something?

BestBanker•101 months

Yeh you missed the embellishment. I don't see a headset either. Good pick up.

"Kiffin said into his headset ‘dumb players make dumb plays,'"...except the video shows Kiffin with no headset on head or in hand.

That was literally said 7 hours before you dipshit. Stop trying to look like you have half a brain.

Probably the wrong package... ha ha ha. I mean wrong players in the game. Had to burn one.... I mean had to call a timeout.

Hester Carries•101 months

Who? Cares?

Kiffin could be the most compassionate guy in the world, I have no idea, but it wouldn't surprise me if he is the type who would throw someone under the bus for a mistake he made. He probably deserved getting yelled at like a daddy yells at his teenage son for doing something stupid.

Short man syndrome has carried Saban pretty far.

BabyTac•101 months

Does Saban have dat binder tho?

Would fire again and make his arse walk home at O-dark thirty. Would not pour freshwater on him to put him out if he were ablaze.
