They can kiss his arse goodbye anyway. He won't be at Bama for the length of his contract.

At no time since he joined Alabama has Saban seemed happy. It's almost depressing to watch.


In Alabama's defense,has the poor bastard ever looked happy ? Those pictures of him holding the crystal after beating Oklahoma look like some guy who finally made it to the can after that 'next exit 12 miles' sign.

Croom is a class act. I was crying right along with him when he won the bowl game this year. Bama screwed up by not getting him. I'm serious and believe he would have Bama in better standing now than Nick.

And you guys do realize LSU plays Washington soon? Saban would be surrounded by crazy cajuns once again, this time realllly laffing at him.

I've wondered that ever since the ULM fiasco. Saban and Emmert are tight as ticks. If it hadn't been for Emmert,no way he would have come to LSU. Joe Dean was looking at Memphis State's OL coach.


The real story: Sexton contacted Joe and Mark, Joe said, "We need to find out how much money he wants." Mark said, "Money Hell, we've got to find out if he really wants to come here, money we can get!"

Haha we heard the same thing last year when WVU was looking for a coach. You guys are rumor mongering, and frankly I'm not surprised.

Washington? That's the best you can think up?

C'mon, he won the Big 10 his last year there. When was the last time that happened. Could it possibly be that LSU was just a MUCH bigger opportunity?


No, he didn't win the Big 10 his last year. That team went to the Citrus Bowl.

All of the LSU fans that know Saban personally, is this (getting to know him) something that happens for all fans as he coaches a couple of years or just a select few? I would really like to get to know the guy and let him know we are not all crazy. I ask because there are a lot of you that know for a fact he is unhappy. Like one of your own said, when he smiled after raising the trophy he seemed to be thinking about the guy he had to go see the following week for recruiting. The guy is and will always be all about the job.

For the one that said he was a failure in the NFL, so was Spurrier, Carrol, Stallings, Petrino...need I go further. Some people are just better in college. Some are better in the NFL, Pitt's coach Wandstedt(sp?) and Weis come to mind.

Mike Price never won 10 games at Bama. I stand corrected. He is "Rollin'" at UTEP though.

Nothing better than a bunch of Gumps in denial. The implosion would be priceless because they all think there is no way it would EVER happen to their glorious program.

The Meyer stuff probably has to do with some of the rumors floating around since Saban started recruiting there. The stuff about the Red Elephants, car dealers in South Alabama, etc. is exactly the kind of thing that nearly sunk Bama before and the stuff that a coach cannot control.

They brag about the 10+ win seasons that they're coaches have had, but why do they all run away from there. Remember Franchione? He just had a 10+ win season and said Adios to them.
Bill Curry had bricks thrown at his house when he finished 10-2.

Sorry about that. Forgot about Wisconsin. Mich St. ended up 10-2 and #7 in the country. Yes facts do matter to me.

Thats the way these rumor threads work. One message board posts a link to another message board as "verification" that the rumor true...because "everybody is talking about it"

Wait, say what? The last time Mich. St won the Big Ten Conference, 1990. Also nick was 0-for in bowl games up there. FYI
