🏈 Saban Rumors...Again?!? When does this ever get old??

[bama alum]

PTI's Kornheiser said today that he thinks people in Tuscaloosa (Bama fans in general) should be scared of this rumor. Then when Wilbon prompted him, Kornheiser said he didn't think Saban would leave.

Saban said earlier today that he didn't know where the rumors were coming from (his agent, right?) and that he is "totally committed to Bama".

Ugh I just can't imagine him at TEXAS .. So gross. It would be kind of cool if he went to a small school.

Alabama coach Nick Saban on Texas report: 'No one said anything like that'

"There's nothing new or different that's ever happened. I'm very committed to the University of Alabama," Saban says.

Not true, the rumors are coming from a "source" that is claiming that a booster/alumnus TALKED to Saban's agent, none of this comes directly from him.

 

[JoshB]

Both times Saban has been asked about it today he laughed each time. At his press conference a lil while ago he said he has no idea where these reports are coming from but none of what was reported has been said by he or anyone. Take that for what it is I guess.

Uhhhh Terry you might wanna re-read what I was saying... I was saying you aren't going to convince me that it IS a coincidence.

Ohhhh guess I missed that key part of the puzzle. Thank you for clarifying!

I think the most recent rumors are quoting things from an e-mail, again from someone saying that Sexton said these things.

Sexton is a merchant of chaos, stirring the waters to get more money for his coaches in place, and find better jobs for those willing to move.

 

[It Takes Eleven]

Exactly, I mean there is no reason for people to get angry, or make like Alabama cant move on. Coach Saban has done one heck of a job here, I would hate to lose him, but it aint the end of the world. I would wish him well also, and look forward, as always, to the next chapter in Bama Football.

This. We are not LSU.

Yet, he's not the one stirring this chaos here, Tim.

I'm shocked there are so many fans who fail to realize this is the third time this story has made the rounds...this fall ALONE. And, what kills me is we knew about this back in the spring...knew they'd been told there was no interest...and yet there are still people fretting.

To your point...

Another in the growing list of "things not pointed out" in stories like this:

A lot of this is fueled by the site OrangeBloods (Rivals) and specifically Chip Brown and Geoff Ketchum.

What hasn't been pointed out about Ketchum is a week ago he was spouting off about how Meyer would be leaving OSU. Yet, no one is saying "wait a minute?"

 

[Mahout]

Totally classless if the Sexton and house hunting stories are true...classless. I can't imagine Bryant or Stallings or Bowden or any of the icons of class letting something like that happen with another coach...

I'm tired of it. Tired of hearing about Saban's insatiable ego. If he wants to leave. Please have the class to let us know so we can retain those assistants that we want. This is still Alabama.

But, I would like to talk about LSUi without using the "S" word.

I'm on Saban overload for one week. As Vinnie Sunseri said in the 60 minutes piece " I've been Sabaned". Ready for ALABAMA football without the coach's personalities of the two teams. Put that in the "National Inquirer" and let's play ball.

LMAO wow anybody else wanna touch that one?

I bet you would like Paul Johnson at Alabama, huh?
