There will be a price to pay for what au did today. Don't think for one minute that Saban will not play the game. He invented the game.
Ps laugh if you will,but bookmark it, there will be payback. He is just that kind of person.


Posts like this show why these coaches make $6 mil a year and you don't.

Unlike you, Saban isn't a pussy bitch that will let a bruised ego guide his recruiting decisions. shite I'd think the Saban fans would rather describe him as being a guy totally focused on getting the best players possible, not someone who flips players to "send messages" after having one of his flipped.

If he "invented" the game as you describe, then he's probably more than capable making rational rather than emotionally-driven strategies.

I believe this is what coaches are really about..

While I don't disagree with you, Saban does play the game. He signed Corey Grant out of Auburn's back yard with no intention of letting him play offense, rather intending to put him at DB and if he didn't do well, he'd process him out. Hell, look what happened to Petey Smith. Both of those guys were recruited to Bama to send the message that Little Nicky could get whomever he damn well pleased.

The fact that Chizik, a coach who is given virtually no credit by anyone outside of Auburn, has done as well in recruiting despite Saban's best efforts has to chap his arse at least a little. Especially now that CGC has flipped the script and taken Bama's top rated prospect away less than a year after Bama took Auburn's top rated prospect away.
