Bends and thrusts on the quarterdeck until CNS gets tired.The habits that make for championship level players are not common. Joining Alabama is a bit like joining the Marines, they have to learn a new way of thinking and develop the habits that lead to success. Hopefully this is nothing but a bump in the road for Cowan because we really need him to succeed.
Could very well be a message of "This is your final warning." You're right, he rarely mentions names in situations like these.Saban has rarely dropped the player's name in the interview when they are in doghouse. The fact he mentioned Cowan's name suggests that it's serious and he's sending a specific message to Cowan, which is "You better take your classroom serious or you will not play this fall."
I don't think it's just a message to the team, but it's geared toward Cowan.
