There are a ton of good reasons to believe he's staying. Every credible new source points to him staying. But they are convinced otherwise. They are ignoring the credible obvious signs and buying into the dubious spurious ones.

It really is quite amazing. That kind of delusion on such a level.

So this is a "baseless" rumor? Comes from the Coach of a prestigious HS.
They don't want to hear that do they? They are pathetic.

I've said so myself in different words and he never
really answered me.

I'll probably move on to other forums or maybe reddit after this cesspit of rumors.

There were downvotes
Such petty hero-worship lemmings

Hello again Swamp rats! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

What do you guys do for a living that you can live on a MB 24/7 and track flights all over the country?
So sad to have a fan base whose entire well being is centered around the downfall of a team that doesn't even consider them rival worthy. Is that the problem?

Ive been reading this board a lot longer than I have been posting, always enjoyed getting some of your perspective, especially thru the Shula years. This Site has grown much larger and faster than probably Chicken ever imagined. It is the best place to come and get info on the SEC. I would hate like hell to see this board wither away because of issues with moderation.

Knock off the bashing of Chicken and the site admins.

There are rumors floating around everywhere and more leeway is given on the Coaching Changes Board regarding rumors. Many rumors get debunked quickly and are deleted. Others are deleted right away.

We do not read every post and can only react if there is Request Admin Request or if we actually read the post.

This will all shake out in the next few days.

Saban may be heading to UT and he may stay at Bama. The Coaching Changes board is where we are trying to contain all of the discussion. It is a very hot topic right now and we are not going to hide all of the discussion.

Quick question: Why was the LF's coach thinks Saban is not leaving thread deleted? I don't think most of us mind all of the rumors, so much as the discrepancy between what stays and what gets whacked. It seems that anything that debunks the rumor gets whacked with the quickness.

Appreciate all you guys do

An Auburn fan posted that he had a source saying Saban was staying put, and it was deleted?

As was the post where the head coach at St Augustine in NOLA said he believed, after talking with CNS, that he was staying.

Edited: just saw this had been mentioned. Still don't understand why that is a "baseless" rumor that gets whacked. It came from an interview with the coach.
I am sadly disappointed. I came to SECrant b/c of the idiotic homerism on the Bama boards.

This was the thread about Saban visiting at St Augustine HS and the Coach saying he talked with Saban and he believed Saban was staying at Bama. Also the interview said that Leonard's family were told he was staying.
Why was this whacked?

So the 100% lsu trolls are not being banned though other fanbases that did the same would be banned.

So many of the threads that discuss the positive notion of Saban staying are deleted while all of the ones that are negative are left to stay + the ones that aren't even rumor threads but complete troll threads.

Yea no reason to blame the mods guys I am 100% positive it would be held the same way even if it were Les Miles under the same duress. Hell we saw how they handled the TM7 (Norwood's honeybitcher) rumor situation. Everyone was allowed to create threads about it and no rival fans were banned for poking fun.

This.
Bama fans are huge supporters of SECr. This mess is ridiculous.

This is okay……

That is a 5 page thread based on a UT fan twitter account

Threads with comments from recruits that have actually spoken with Saban the last 2 days….whacked

Are you embarrassed for your fellow fans? You got to be. They seem to have realized that they will never beat Saban, so now all they have left is their hollow hope. Im really going to enjoy when that is shattered as well.
