No sources or rumors, they just believe that Saban finds the Alabama job more attractive than the NFL and he is just taking the night to compose himself and make sure he is making the right life-changing decision.
The NFL Live Crew really believes Saban is coming...
- Thread starter rgw
- Start date
Not only did they all say he was coming, they all thought it was a good call. Since when does ESPN like us?
NFL Live: Talking heads believe Saban to Alabama
I just caught the first 5 minutes of NFL Live on ESPN and the talking heads there all believe it's a 'done deal' and that there's no reason for delaying the announcement other than respect for WH...
Personally, I want to see CNS at the podium before I rest easy...

Maybe Mal is buying drinks and passing out $100 bills to ESPN reporters/personalities?

I know Kirk Herstreit was on Finebaum a few weeks ago and basically said Saban is exactly what Alabama needed. A big ego that could handle the pressure and put discipline back into the program.That's the exact opposite of what the College Gameday crew said (except for Rece of course :wink

Yeah. He called Alabama one of the best jobs in football. A place where you should be fired if you don't win 9 games because kids will line up to play for you. Don't know if I'll go that far, but with Saban...I'd expect some 9+ wins seasons in our future. He really just flat-out gushed about our job comparing Saban coming to Bama potentially to what Carroll has at USC.
i have been laughing at ESPN all day...
ok, 2 weeks ago when Saban said "I will not be the head coach at Alabama"... ESPN mocked us saying that "Alabama can't get a Nick Saban, he is too high of a caliber of coach"... they talked about how Alabama wasn't a top-15 program anymore and how we needed to get a Jimbo Fisher or equivalent coach...
Now here we are a week later, it seems as though Saban is leaning toward Alabama and they are all "see, told you alabama is still a top notch program!"
I also liked how they said our job wasn't a "high profile job" but its ALL they talk about, when you have pro teams looking for coaches and all you can talk about is that nobody school in the middle of Alabama, that should tell you something...
what is up with that???

That's nice and all but Salisbury is the biggest blowhard of all the NFL talking heads. Good call by Herbstreit with the "big enough ego" comment. That's exactly what we need to keep the armchair/big pocket coaches at bay. Saban's a pretty thick skinned guy too.
two weeks ago, didn't all of us think Saban was out of the question too? I know I did....now I'm thinking differently (I actually think he will take the job)....same thing with the ESPN guys
