This is what desperation looks like for Lane Kiffin.

That's why Froot is bitter. At MSU he must have used new bad-fashioned not-hard work, and being in the wrong place.Comment

Assistants don't last long under Nick, he hasn't changed in that respect. He is like Trump that way along with the obsession with his hair.Comment

As far as the wrong place, well, Michgsn State has a fine team, history, and place in college football, but I will say that it is easier to win at Ohio State, Michigan, Alabama, Texas, Oklahoma, USC, and a few other places than East Lansing."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

I just like to make fun of Saban, the dude is thin skinned, vain and really grinds his assistants down. It's the opposite of bitter. If you can't make fun of that, what can you make fun of? He's won about 10 titles and any little question sets him off. And he isn't getting tough questions.
He's actually on good terms with MSU, he helps them whenever they ask for his advice.Comment

Obsessed.Originally posted by froot loops View Post
At Bama, we had Kirby for 8 years or so until he got a head coach job. McElwain for 4 years until he got a HC job, and Kiffin for 3 until he got a HC job (even if it's a shitty job). The two OCs who were "ran off" were Applewhite (1 year) and Nussmeier (2 years). Applewhite took a job at his alma mater, Texas, and Nussy took a lateral to M to be a part of the Hoke braintrust.
I think Applewhite was overwhelmed. He was in his 20's, it was his first bigtime job, and, well, it didn't work out.
Nussmeier and Saban weren't a great fit, but they are reportedly good friends.
Meh. The whole Saban runs off coaches is wildly overstated. More myth than substance. At least at Bama.

Look, you post a nearly two year old article about what someone alleges happened over 17 years ago and I am gonna straight-up go to a nightclub and shoot my own thigh.
Wait, no I won't, but I will not respond to it in a serious fashion."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

Well that and Michigan State plays it clean. As far as I've learned apparently there was some MeyerSabaning involved in getting Mateen Cleves, but ever since then it's been above board.Comment

That was more directed to Froot Loops post about Saban helping MSU "whenever they want advice". I don't like Plaxico Burress, but he is everywhere as a spokesman for SpartyThat makes me want to take my hidden firearm out and shoot people.

Totally irrelevant, i'm guessing AlabamAlum has not even heard of roundball? Yes?As far as I've learned apparently there was some MeyerSabaning involved in getting Mateen Cleves, but ever since then it's been above board.Comment

True, but he's aware of unsupported rumor as he traffics in it regularly.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?
