🏈 Saw this article about Bill O'Brien

[jlabit]

I certainly hope he is wrong about his predictions. It scares me a little. Can anyone shoot holes in his theory? I firmly believe Nick sees things I and others do not see.

Need a link!!

If you are referring to the one on RollBamaRoll by some guy named Erick, then it is safe to say that he isn't a fan of Bill O'Brien and that he assumes that CNS will let him simply drive the Ferrari off of the cliff!!

Prefatory throat-clearing: Salty language follows. If that sort of thing offends you, mosey along. What follows is my opinion, and it is mine alone. I take no joy in it; I devoutly hope I am...

Erick knows Alabama football very well and what he points out here is certainly cause for concern. It's hard for me to see Coach Saban making such an error and surely he knows something we don't. One of those cases where you just have to trust the GOAT.

This was a better thread without the link to the article. What a prick, he is.

He started as a lawyer, and although I appreciate what he does and writes, he does have an inflated self worth.

Sounds like NS hasnt a clue what he is doing....lol
Or...
BOB pissed this guy off because he refused an interview or something...
.....but he is right about one thing.....
Probably will get a lot of looks at end of year for teams wanting a HC

It seems that Erick needs to stick to the old saying “opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink!” He seems to take this hire personally, like maybe CNS didn’t consult with him first or something.

Yeah, like many non-practicing lawyers, it took him a few bullet points before he was referencing his law pedigree.

 

[Justneedme81]

The article is too biased and Not the first time he has done this. Read his other articles.. he did similar one for Sark... I wouldn't trust 100 percent of everything he said in the article.

Very Clay Travis of him, which if you're familiar with Erik, that would slice him deeply.

As for the article, I was expecting #5 to be reason #1. And it probably is reason #1 for him writing the article to begin with. I have no problems with Erik, and have enjoyed some of his work in the past, and likely will continue to do so when I come across it. But that article reads like something a more well-read Joseph Goodman would write.

 

[ElephantStomp]

Cant say I’m overly excited or happy about the hire, but Coach Saban knows more than I do.

As for the article, it came across as Clay Travis or Skip Bayless to me

Saban has and can make mistakes with hires but he doesn't do it often and when he does he quickly learns from it and fixes it. I will trust the historical evidence from Saban.

I know a lot here don't like some of the coaching staff! I think Coach Saban can work anyone into a coach!
