 Fair enough. Gamesmanship.  But I would love to see Saban say "it doesn't matter who our QB is."

Saban overeacted to a legit question about what he saw from his QBs.

The reporter was doing her job.

Saban could have answered the question politely without, as he said, disrespecting either player.

If he doesn't want to answer legitimate questions perhaps he should not represent a University.

Okay overreacted I'll agree with that.  He overreacted. A little bit.


Not a Gundy 'I'm a man' overreaction. Or an Iverson 'Practice', Overreaction.

Certainly not a me responding to Stevie or him to me overreaction.



No, a short 'stop askin' me overreaction.



Pretty wimpy stuff compared to what we fling around in here. Where's the wink emoticon?   


I think the press got their nosey little shorts in a bit of a overreaction about it also.

If Coach Saban really thought it through he may come to the realization that the interest built by the press over-reacting to college football over the years pays him $10MM a year to teach football compared to a tiny fraction of that earned by some of his other tenured colleagues at the University of Alabama.

And I overreact here for the fun ot it, but for $10MM a year, I'd put some real heat behind it.

also its not the best look to look like a bully to a woman who's only trying to do her job.

Southern chivalry?

I assume that C.H.U.D. was suspended 3 games w/o pay, otherwise it would be a hollow affront to the dignity that he does not possess.

Like when your husband hits you and is not suspended by the head coach??

See that’s a shot to the dignity.

Adding insult to injury for paid leave?

Where do I sign up??

Agreed, he was a meanie.


10MM puts a lot of pressure on a man. The ordinary dude can't handle that shit. Every once in a while cracks appear.


Okay, slap him up I guess.  :=)

Meanie?

He acted like a guy who never had a mike in front of him and IMO was defensive about a question any reporter would ask? What were your impressions of the QBs, coach?

I can understand his wanting to protect his kids, and avoid a QB controversy, but he should be ready for scrutiny in his chosen very public arena.   

He could have set a better example for his students than he did by doing a bad Belichick stonewall.

Finger-wagging done.

Looks like the Hokies came into town expecting to play some football.

Cutach*k sucks, and the worst is Pop, where you are only expected to give 1-2 lines, not a press conference, but a line going to the locker room at the half or whenever:  “What do you think about x...”...wait for it “We need to do better x...” and jogs off, fucking hilarious, how arch!!

Popovich is all schtick. Everybody knows it and nobody has a bad word to say about him.
