Nick Saban (ex-HC Alabama Crimson Tide)

[osugrad21]

Think this will still apply?

Dec. 8, 2003 in regards to Oklahoma after they lost to Kansas State and LSU and USC
were vying for a spot in the BCS title game.

"Anyone who doesn't win their conference has no business playing in the
national championship game." Nick Saban, Alabama (12/8/03)

Heh.

 

[osugrad21]

Heh.

Eh, it looks like its either an internet lie or an ESPN coverup.

Either is possible these days.

This story/allegation kind of reminds me of Craig Krenzel's story of Nick Saban screaming at him when he informed Saban he was committing to Ohio State (Krenzel said it re-enforced his decision to go to OSU).

Doubt this story gets any play from ESPN/CBS (SEC contracts) or anyone else really.

Jeno James, our best offensive lineman at the time, comes in and collapses after practice, uh, vomiting all kinds of stuff that would make a billygoat puke, eyes rolled in the back of his head. Myself, about four other lineman are trying to carry him from the locker room, to the training room...

...Nick Saban literally just starts walking in, steps over Jeno James convulsing, doesn't say a word, doesn't try to help, goes upstairs, I don't know what he does. But then obviously they get Jeno 'trauma-offed' to the hospital.

LOIs arrive at Nick Saban's office

It's the UCLA Buffalos, in Westwood, Ontario.

I hate him with a passion..what an ass.

If stepping over your convulsing player to go read e-mails from your agent about new job openings is wrong...

Obviously an ESPN coverup.

Nobody lies on the Internet.

Just pointing out that that 21 was talking about the Saban quote about the NC game participamts., not the story about him ignoring the convulsing player when he was at Miami.

But if you think about it, if that's what Alabama has at the fax machine, just imagine what they have on official visits.

Better pic. I think I'm still ok here, but if not Mods can move.

Be thankful they aren't in your conference gentleman.

Saban just owns NLOI day and Bama has legions of little ideas like the lady above.
