re: Why do Alabama fans refer to Saban as Coach Saban here?

I think the real question is..Do you think CNS gives a rip what we call him? I guess it just sounds better, I like to refer to Les Miles as Coach Les Miles it just sounds better I suppose.

Names that dont sound right:
Coach Nutt
Coach Shula
Coach Dubose
Coach Perkins
Coach Price

Names that sound right with out the "Coach" tag:
Cholly Mac
Bear Bryant
Muschamp
Fat Phil
Barbara Dooley's kid
