07/19/11 BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - Sorry, Nick Saban , but the most interesting coach coming to SEC Media Days is an offensive guru. No, it's not Bobby Petrino . Not unless a member of the Arkansas media shows up wearing a Florida Gator hat.
07/17/11 .0001 Percent Chance Alabama loses to Kent State: During Shula's tenure I'd give them a 50 percent chance of the upset but Nick Saban takes no team for granted, ever. He may not have Alabama well motivated but the players will be too scare of losing their starting jobs to loaf it on the Golden Flashes. It's always possible another F-4 Tornado could take out the team bus leaving random students ...

07/05/11 I am a football player and I play for the University of Alabama. I am sitting here watching TV and texting other people and other football players and Nick Saban at his house. Do you think he knows what I'm doing? I'm not a football player.
07/05/11 Although some big names like Mario Edwards and Johnathan Gray have already made their commitments, to Florida State and Texas respectively, most of the top prospects in the 2012 recruiting class are still available. Alabama head coach Nick Saban will be a busy man in the coming months, trying to lock up some of the nation's top recruits. The Crimson Tide are listed among the favorites for ...

06/23/11 When you're Nick Saban and you're selling the University of Alabama to linebackers it's a pretty easy sell. Saban is usually going to get who he wants given the pipeline into the NFL that he has created at that position. It may be easy to get great players, but finding great players who are also great leaders is much harder to find. However Saban hit pay dirt with this high school senior who ...
06/22/11 As navel-gazing offseason memes in college football go, 2011 has been dominated so far by the twin specters of oversigning and cost-of-attendance scholarships. But for a brief period in 2010, at just about this point in the summer, there could be no greater threat to the future of the sport than the corrupting influence of the pro agent . Nick Saban compared agents to pimps . Urban Meyer called ...

06/16/11 The Southeastern Conference has some of the premier coaches in all of college football. Coaches like Les Miles, Nick Saban and Gene Chizik have all brought home the BCS Championship in the last five years. Dan Mullen from Mississippi State and Steve Spurrier from South Carolina have led their respective programs back into college football relevancy. Although the SEC has these high-profile ...
06/13/11 Here are my conference champion predictions for the 2011 college football season. SEC Champion : Alabama Crimson Tide - Key offensive pieces Greg McElroy, Julio Jones and Mark Ingram are gone, but Nick Saban still has a team capable of winning the SEC and maybe even a national title.

05/31/11 What do you do when your kicking team is the 62nd best in college football? Well, you could be patient and hope the kickers come around, or if you're Nick Saban , you bring in another kicker to put in the mix. The Tide already has two "starting" kickers, sophomore Cade Foster, who was supposed to be the solution when Saban signed him two years ago and Jeremy Shelley. Foster is the starting long ...
