It needs an award. Better yet, it needs to be made into some motivational BS poster to put up at work. Here's one, "Never forget what its all about"
We expect Coach Miles to be at LSU until "Mamma calls" him back to Michigan in a few years. When that happens, we'd love to have Saint Nick back in Baton Rouge until he retires from coaching.
Saban Responds... Oh the heartbreak for the Bamer fans... Saban Not Interested Good quotes... Saban said he hasn't been contacted by Alabama and doesn't want to be. "This has been the case for years," he said. "When I was in college it was always about coming to the pros. This is the challenge I wanted. I had a good college job. Why would I have left that if I was going to be interested in other college jobs?" (Exactly) "Mike Shula is a good guy. He's a friend," Saban said. "I think he has done a good job there and should have been given an opportunity to stay there."
but wait, my guy who spoke to him directly says differently. he and saban had jack and coke with donuts the other morning and saban was not only interested, he's the one who contacted him. you dont have to believe me, i dont care. he said he would take 3 mill less a year and give up total control for the chance to coach at the almighty tuscaloser. call me if you want all the details. unreal.
No offense to Terry or anyone else but unless someone has direct contact with Paul Bryant, Jr. they DO NOT know what is going on. Did anyone mention that his plane flew to Austin, Texas early this morning. That is a FACT!!!!! IMHO, bama will not get Saban or Spurrier but it always flatters the egos of the alumni to think that they even considered the job. If anyone wants to take me up, I will bet a steak dinner at Ruth Chris Steak House in Huntsville, AL if Spurrier or Saban is the new HC. I also firmly believe if bama could have announced a big name coach today they would have done so. Doesn't that make sense considering all issues like recruiting, public relations, etc. Even the bama players are being quoted in the Alabama papers with critical comments and bama is taking a beating in the national media. Finally, anyone who thinks Bill Oliver has any influence at bama is in a state of delusion. JMHO. Glad to see you guys knock off the pigggies. Good luck with whoever you play in a bowl game. I assure you I will be pulling for you.
certainly sounds like he contacted them doesnt it? that quote pretty much invalidates all the bs talk spewed beforehand.
FACT.. PBJ owns a racetrack in Austin... I will post his planes tailnumber if anyone wishes to track him. He also had 4 flights to Arkansas to his hunting club on Saturday. On Fox 6 sports tonight in bham quotes Saban saying he was not interested in the Alabama job and would not take it. Said he thought that Shula got a raw deal.
Not to mention putting yourself up against the most unrealistic expectations in all of organized sports.
