Saban responds to student section sign "we'll stay for 60 if you stay forever"

TUSCALOOSA, Alabama -- A few minutes after Alabama put the wraps on its 45-10 victory over Tennessee, a reporter informed Nick Saban of a sign held by a fan at Saturday's game.

"We'll stay for 60 if you stay forever," it read.

Saban, who criticized the fans who left last week's rout of Arkansas, smiled and said it "sounds like a good deal to me" as he began an answer that sounded a lot like the one he offered last month when his name was linked to a potential opening at Texas.

"I love it here," he said. "I'm too damn old to go some place else and start all over, I can tell you that."

Re: Saban responds to student section sign "we'll stay for 60 if you stay forever"

If anyone heard Eli's broadcast, he mentioned CNS went to the 10-yard line, and thanked all the fans. CNS re-iterated that, in his post-game interview. He wants the fans to consider they are part of the team (and therefore, The Process), and he sounded pleased at the level of fan support.

His "outburst" may have been aimed primarily at the block seating frat rats, but it was no accident he did this before a big rivalry game. Especially one with so many recruits in attendance.

Can't speak for all of us who watched from their sofa, but seeing a packed house, for the whole game, was greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

RTR!

Awesome. Coach Saban is the Master. We are being processed as well as this young team.

FYI, I was there for Arky game and it wasn't just the greeks. There were more band members than regular students after halftime. There is not doubt the greeks are usually the 1st to leave, but the Arky game it was all the students.

Near the end of the game CBS showed a student with a 'I'm still here' sign. Love it.
ALSO... Seems Coach Saban is training the Frat Boys too. Wonders never cease.

Got to say I never really consider a game is over till the fat lady sings... ('Rammer Jammer')

It's always nice to hear him say it, even if it is once a month. Just reinforces it and keeps us happy

It was a night sight to see on TV. They stayed and looked to have a good time.

As someone who never attended the University, do the greeks consider themselves royalty or something? When I was at Okie State, anytime some frat kid stepped out of line, there was always ALWAYS someone to make sure it was handled. And this is true anywhere on campus, at parties, even in the classroom. One SAE guy tried arguing with our teacher, something about missed assignments and he told the teacher, do you know who I am, and the teacher looked at him, and said "i do not know or care who you are, if you have such an issue you can leave and drop my class" never saw him in class again, but i did see him at the stUnion, and i ran my mouth at him a little and nobody came outof the walls and strung me up by my boxers or anything. The way you guys talk about the Bama Greeks, well hell, not just you guys, but the Bama Greek general opinion is rather negative, i feel like if I ran my mouth at some of those guys i might have to say hello to a few of his 'brothers'.

Re: Saban responds to student section sign "we'll stay for 60 if you stay forever"

All I'm gonna say is I am proud of all the fans who supported the team Saturday.

You may not think so now but 35 years later I can still see Coach Bryant strolling the field during warm ups.

One day you will remember Coach Saban the same way. Coach Bryant was not shy about telling fans how to behave.

So, Thank You all, again.
