Do you think he ever feels bad about it later? Lots of coaches write apology letters after losing their cool on a reporter.

It's very funny but totally classless and undignified.

I can understand if the reporter asks a dick question, like Chuck Oliver did to Richt after the 2012 SECCG, but when the reporter asks a totally benign question and gets treated like a gimp, it's unprofessional.

The reporter and all his colleagues were literally laughing out loud at the exchange.

Someone should cut him off and say "hey coach, I don't work for you, and I'm not one of your players. I'm not gonna sit here an let you talk down to me like I'm a child. You're unprofessional and you are being an a-hole. And if you want to talk about it more later, just let me know, tough guy"

Initially the reporter would be disciplined or fired, but in the long run he'd have plenty of job offers and name recognition.

It would be brilliant. Maybe he'd even get his own radio show.

Being that stupid and clueless should be painful. Unfortunately, ignorance is bliss.

I'm hoping any "what a dick" backlash is just people showing their jealousy, because otherwise, what a bunch of cowering snowflakes.

Perhaps their brains are only big enough to take in humor from the likes of Larry the Cable Guy and CBS sitcoms.

Yeah. Saban has had some times where he might have gone over the time and legitimately been a dick. This was not one of those times. I hate the term snowflake, but anyone upset by this really is looking for an excuse to melt or just pathetically jealous.

I do too, but I do enjoy using it when people who love to throw it around truly act like one. It's one my passions.

I agree. It was totally classess and undignified for that reporter to even ask the GOAT coach to give out his plays for an upcoming game.

I know a lot of LSU, and other fans, act like Saban is such a dick for things like this. And he is...but how can you not love it? We all hate dumbass questions from the media.
