Now that the
drama has settled down a bit between Nick Saban and Jimbo Fisher, who will be the one holding a grudge against the other? Well, ESPN's Paul Finebaum believes A&M's Fisher will not be getting over this feud any time soon...
quote:
“I think with Jimbo Fisher, it is real," Finebaum said, via 247Sports. "He’s a very proud guy. Both he and Nick Saban are from West Virginia and they take things like that very seriously. I think Saban wants to move on. I think Saban will admit privately that he made a mistake. He said something that, in context, was accurate, but it sounded very badly.
“Jimbo Fisher I don’t think wants to move on. His fan base is behind him. He thinks this is a big moment for him. He stood up to the biggest bully. … I don’t think he wants to move on. I think he’ll follow the proper decorum today and tomorrow, but deep down, he likes this fight.”
Alabama hosts Texas A&M on Oct. 8th.
