I wound understand this if it was 'it's a God thing' Chizik. But have not seen this about Gus? I know his wife spoke at a religious event (Gus shut up parody), but Gus is a football coach.
I would like to discuss the Lord with his daughters.

Eventually one of these coaches will get the university sued for preaching.

No clue about that, but he is a devout catholic who attends mass every Sunday.

He is very careful not to discuss religion or politics publicly, though.

pretty cool of Saban to be like that

Does a coach being more obsessed with another school than their religion, like Bret is with Auburn, help a program? It sure seems to have spread to your fanbase because Auburn and Gus is all that you can think about anymore.

Butch Jones is a pretty devout catholic. Have heard him and prospects talk about it.

Personally I don't give a shite. I don't care if we have a christian, jew, muslim, or atheist I just wanna win some fricking football games.

People's religious choices shouldn't interfere with the greatness that is Georgia football. Ever.

God actually needs to be more of a part of our society. I don't care who this offends. Problems happen when God is removed from the equation. Fact.

America in the sense of Americans, is the greatest country on Earth. However, our society has become increasingly secular. Look at Babylon in the book of Daniel. When the king believed himself to be sufficient in running the country himself, then Babylon crumbled. When God was consulted, the kingdom was rebuilt.
