re: Does espn really expect teams to give Nick saban access to practices

For college gameday coverage for a potential matchup with bama that week when he still has an office with the tide?

Coaches don't think like fans. Coaches care way more about money, opportunity, and their perception in the coaching fraternity than they ever will about any particular program.

If Saban went to watch Oklahoma practice during Bama week and saw Barry Switzer out there helping them install the fricking wishbone to surprise the Tide, he wouldn't say shite about it to DeBoer, Wommack, or whoever.
