Question: What was Saban so mad about?

[bamabryan]

I'm just thankful to have a coach that will get emotional and not just stand there and clap his hands.

Or a coach that just stands there with the deer in the headlights look.

It appeared to me that the other coach questioned him as to why he was calling a timeout and he very nicely told him that he was the head coach and he would do whatever he wanted. You could read his lips plain as day hehe...

I'm going to have to doubt very seriously that an assistant openly questioned Coach Saban for calling a time out. That would surprise me. Assistants value their livelihoods.

Would someone PLEASE post a clip of this incident on YouTube? Or a photo? Anything? It's hilarious how intense he gets.

edit - Hilarious for the spectator.

After it happened theywent to a commercial. When CBS came back from the break they showed it again in slow motion. It was awesome. I don't care what language he uses as long as it works, annd at 10-0 I think its working.

Having to waste a time out due to the wrong personel being on the field in the short yardage situatiion?

Bingo...

Knowing CNS's reputation for being demanding and expecting the very best from those around him, I would expect this to be his reaction in the morning when he wakes up and sees that his hair is out of place.

This just made my Monday so much better, and all because of the visual this envokes: Nick Saban standing in front of his bathroom mirror in his Jammies, screaming at his hair in the reflection that it "better buy into this process or face the consequences!", as he pulls a pair of scissors and a bottle of extra hold mousse out of the bathroom drawer...:smilielol5:

Anywho, staying on topic, I love the fact that he lets people know (loudly) when they screw up. It should aid in teaching the offender to not make the same mistake twice.

actually, I think the reason he got really upset was because he was signaling for timeout but they weren't acknowledging it. If you go back and look, he was calling TO and time kept running off the clock. It got down to 1:07 left. Then when CBS came back from break 1:23 was what the clock was showing.

That's what I thought happened. He was calling Time Out and no one was responding, the way he wanted them too, so he pitched a fit. He got the time back
