You might have heard Alabama head coach Nick Saban has a somewhat tenuous relationship with reporters, but he was grateful for at least one of them on Wednesday. During a news conference ahead of Alabama’s road game against Texas, a reporter asked Saban how he addressed the possibility of a “Horns Down” penalty against the Longhorns. Big 12 commissioner Greg Burks had confirmed the hand gesture mocking Texas’ own signature gesture would continue to be a taunting penalty earlier in the… Source link

Recruiting never stops. Less than two weeks after Georgia beat Alabama in the national championship game, both Georgia’s Kirby Smart and Alabama’s Nick Saban have continued their pursuit of prized 2023 quarterback Arch Manning by attending Manning’s basketball games. Saban was at Isidore Newman’s basketball game on Saturday along with Alabama defensive coordinator Pete Golding. Their attendance came just days after Smart was at a game along with Georgia offensive coordinator Todd Monken. NCAA… Source link

Alabama lost, but it doesn’t feel like the end of the world, at least in my household.

But, among the confetti, a future NFL draft pick named Jameson Williams watched on. Williams cemented his future in the NFL after transferring to Alabama from Ohio State this season. It turned out to be one of the best decisions he’s ever made. In his only year at the… Source link

Nick Saban appeared to be holding a cup of coffee — even though it was after 4 p.m. — when he stepped behind a University of Alabama podium on Feb. 1, 2017. It was National Signing Day and Saban was about to discuss a group of recruits that would prove to be among the greatest of all time — part of two national titles teams (and a 51-4 record) the past four seasons. Eleven of them were selected in the past three NFL drafts, including a whopping eight in the first round and six in the top… Source link

Alabama coach Nick Saban announced that he tested positive for COVID-19. The 68-year-old coach is tested daily as part of Alabama’s protocol, so this was a routine test. He said he currently has no symptoms. “I feel fine. I felt fine. I was surprised by this,” Saban said late Wednesday. “…So I am not really that concerned about my health, but you never know.” You don’t ever know. Saban is likely going to be OK, but COVID-19 is a cruel and unpredictable virus and word that it got… Source link

President Donald Trump again endorsed former Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville on Monday night ahead of Tuesday’s special runoff election in Alabama. In doing so, however, he may have severely offended every single Crimson Tide fan in the state. Trump, attempting to praise Alabama coach Nick Saban, repeatedly called him “Lou Saban” instead. ‘Really successful coach,” Trump said about Tuberville on a conference call, via Alabama.com. “Beat Alabama, like six in a row, but we won’t even… Source link
