  • I'm just shocked that people are asking for examples of Saban being evil.

    http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/shu...rn=nfl,wp13450

    Jeno James, our best offensive lineman at the time, comes in and collapses after practice, uh, vomiting all kinds of stuff that would make a billygoat puke, eyes rolled in the back of his head. Myself, about four other lineman are trying to carry him from the locker room, to the training room.

    Obviously it's a moment of panic, everyone, you know, we don't know if this guy's, you know, gonna die, I mean, the whole deal. But he's so big and sweaty and heavy that we actually have to set him down in the hallway between the locker room and the training room.

    Nick Saban literally just starts walking in, steps over Jeno James convulsing, doesn't say a word, doesn't try to help, goes upstairs, I don't know what he does. But then obviously they get Jeno 'trauma-offed' to the hospital.

    Saban calls a team meeting about 10:30 that night, comes down and says, 'You know, the captain of the ship can never show fear or indecision, we've always gotta have an answer, and so I had to go upstairs, that's why I walked over Geno like that, I had to collect my thoughts and decide what's best for our team.'

    And I'm thinking to myself, I think along with Jason Taylor and Zach Thomas and Yeremiah Bell and all these other guys going, 'Did he, does he really believe what he's just saying?' He showed no human emotion for one of his best players.

      I know this is hard for BYU fans to understand, but winning games at the University of Utah is not the worst sin that anyone can commit. You can dislike a Utah coach simply because he is your rivals coach, you don't have to demonize the coach to justify your hatred.

      By the way, I do acknowledge that Urban Meyer is a horrible human being, but it has nothing to do with his fabulous 2 year career at Utah.

        As for how dirty Saban gets with recruiting, the answer is pretty much that there may be his equals (Meyer being a potential equal), but no one is worse.

          So we agree then.

            I wasn't asking, I just don't follow Alabama / Saban very closely. That story is pretty rotten of Saban, I'll give you that. Still, it's not like Saban put pictures of Cosmo the Cougar in the urinals or treated BYU jerseys like doormats. Talk about evil...

                    You can bet that Urban will throw the book at him, I'd be surprised if he plays for Ohio again.

                      Maybe it is urbans practices. Maybe his players are so invested in the "us against the world" mentality that it is hard for players to turn it off once they leave practice.

                      • It's almost surprising when Urban's players don't commit crimes.
                        I'm like LeBron James.

                            As long as this thread continues to get bumped, I think the other Big-10 folks around here & I should work together to shit-bomb this thread into bolivian.
                            As much as I'm grateful for what Urban did for Utah, I hate Ohio State.

                              As a fan of another Big Ten team, I'll contibute to "s-bombing this tread into bolivian" by stating that I really don't like Bolivia's flag.

                                Excellent point.
                                I've been to Bolivia twice. Got really sick the first time. The second time was better.
                                It was pretty cool, though, going over the Zongo pass and seeing a condor flying below us.

                                I hope this thread ends up in the puke-part of bolivian.
