Jadeveon Clowney Talks About Nick Saban Recruiting Him
Troy Taormina-USA TODAY Sports
Texans DE Jadeveon Clowney was recently interviewed for Nick Saban's new book "Saban: The Making of a Coach", where he described what it was like to get recruited by the Alabama coach back in December, 2010...
quote:

“I don’t see no big deal like everybody else. They’d say, ‘He’s the king of all of football.’ The guy ain’t nothing but 5-5. He’s a short guy. Everybody’s going crazy on Nick Saban.

“He talked the whole time he was there. I was dozing off. He can talk. A lot. He talked for a whole straight hour.”
Clowney had 7 tackles in 4 games this last season after an injury ended his year.

I swear this same article was posted here when he was a freshman at usce. He wasn't impressed with Nick.

Nick probably would've processed his lazy arse anyway.

Not surprised Clowney disrespected one of the best coaches of all time.
