This must of been on Gameday Final. I missed this and didn't see anything on the site about it. What exactly is Granny trying to say here?


 
I do get what he is saying, but just cuz his mental makeup was that way does not mean Coach Saban's is. I do think that the routine Coach Saban has developed allows him to deal with this better than Domers or Bevos.
 
I was going to watch, but I decided to stare in the pine trees in my yard instead. Pretty sure I gained more insight into sports, college football, Coach Saban, the Crimson Tide, and life itself than I would've watching Lou.
 
What Reece says bothers me more than crazy Lou. Is it "more fun to build it than maintain it?" CNS has been a builder...let's hope he doesn't tire of maintaining it now.
 
Oh, goodness gracious, did he not see the joy of last week's victory in Saban's post-game interview? We lose one game against a well prepared, highly motivated team with a great athlete at QB a week after an ultra emotional win over a huge rival, and CNS should retire? Give me a break. I won't be one bit surprised if we mow through the rest of our games and get a couple of breaks and wind up in the BCSNC game again... and win.
 
He's just wishing (like most of the college football world) that Saban would just go ahead and retire. Lou, listen to me, "not gonna happen"... (in my best Dana Carvey does George Bush impression)

I agree. Lou Holtz needs to retire. His brain has gone to mush. The only reason he WANTS Saban to retire is because he knows ND doesn't have a shot at a NC as long as Saban is around. I think Saban enjoys coaching. Just because he doesn't jump up and down all the time doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy it. How many times did the Bear jump up and get excited?
I just think Saban enjoys the process more than the outcome. His true happiness comes from making a difference in those kids lives. When winning means more than building young men, you need to retire...Lou!!
 
I like Holtz, but believe he was incorrect. The joy on Saban's face when you guys won in January was clear, and in stark contrast to the look on his face when you won it all just two years before. I think Saban is enjoying what he has built, but gets frustrated when his players forget what made them good in the middle of a season.

CNS said that himself not too long ago. That doesnt mean he's considering retirement. You can watch the man talk about the game and see how much he loves being part of it. If anything, maintaining a level of excellence is the only challenge he has left. He's "built it" - twice.
