Athletic director Mal Moore said Alabama already is making plans to erect a statue of Saban near ones of the school's other national championship football coaches, including the late Paul "Bear" Bryant."


BTW, I'm not really cool with this.

I wish we would wait for him to retire or move on then bring him back later on.

It's an Alabama tradition to honor all title winning coaches outside the stadium.

If you are ignorant of these traditions, please refrain from making stupid posts about it.

Thanks.

If they make the statue of him throwing the headset down it will be the greatest statue ever.

Building the statue before the guy retires is stupid. What if he gets them on probation or starts banging his secretary and gets fired?



I hope he pulls a Tubbs on em and they end up tearing the statue down. That would be epic.

Well, Gene Stallings "got us on probation" and we didn't hesitate to build a statue for him...

Yeah, and if he won a NC, he could have had a statue too...

Of course, he'd have to beat Memphis first...

I don't know about anyone else, but I would kind of feel embarrassed, or cheapened maybe if LSU got a NC coach from another SEC conference. Say if we got Urban Myer, I would feel funny about that, going on the coattail of another rival University. Just my feelings. I guess that's what bothers me most about Saban going to Bama. They're not smart enough to find a great up and coming new coach.


ScootiniTiger, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on the SEC Rant is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

So says Curry. You wouldn't believe it, if you knew where the window was located.

I totally agree. It's even worse when you get one from a Big 10 school. When you guys won in '03 I couldn't help thinking getting him from Michigan State must be ruining this for all the fans. Couldn't find a great up and coming coach, they had to steal one from Michigan State and then to win another they had to steal a guy from Oklahoma State. Oh wait that's dumb.

I'll just say that whoever threw the brick has one hell of an arm. It sure as hell wasn't Curry's starting QB, Gary Hollingsworth.

Hopefully, they'll make the statue actual size and not exaggerate his height.

If they do that some drunk Auburn fan is gonna piss on his head sometime. At least give the little guy some KISS boots or something.

I dunno chief, you may not want to stick Nick in the Walmart. People might think he's a garden gnome or something.

Trust me, there isn't a soul in Title Town who doesn't recognize the best coach in college football.

Okay cool, but just to be on the safe side, tell them to keep him out of the fricking garden section. Electronics, women's hygiene—any section but garden. We just don't want to take any fricking chances.
