Probably for the best. Harsin gave a very strategic answer that pointed to giving his players autonomy for a medical decision - despite this autonomy potentially costing him games. Saban basically said the same thing. PS. I am vaccinated. But I believe it's totally legit to not get it if you aren't comfortable. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The author's feelings is no different than what a good bit of our posters and other fans feel. Whether people agree with it or not isn't the point. It just seems like this thread was created to extenuate your personal preference or vendetta against this author.

It is all tied in one. This thread made it seem like Goodman said some scouring thing about CBH, when in reality a good bit of what is being said could be applied to what has already been said in that thread (There are some potshots obviously.)

Popular Post WalkingCarpet 1,379 Posted July 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2021 What BH said is only controversial among the journalist class and the permanently aggrieved who reside on places like Twitter and Reddit. Unfortunately these people are also the loudest complainers. 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well based on what I've read NS has said it is a personal choice, however, it would seem he advocated for getting the vaccination based on his tone. You can read it on the other thread. Probably why his team has a 90% compliance rate. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, if CNS was more demanding, it's selfish. What would you rather hear as a player? A. "Hey, I don't care if you're scared of it or not. You're getting that vaccine because I need to win games! B. "It's your own personal medical decision. We won't force you one way or the other." 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the difference would be the vax rates between UoA and AU. Harsin missed a good opportunity to sound well informed. In the very least he should have just spoken about how and who was leading the vaccination process at AU as I am quite sure it’s not the football coach. If it is, AU President has messed up IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I hate getting into this stuff with you because you either just make up stuff on the spot or just want to argue. Did I say NS demanded anything? I said he agrees that it is a personal decision but unlike CBH he is advocating for his players and others to get it. He wasn't non-committed. He also mentioned that the players could possibly affect their teammates and personal goals based on their decisions. That is more than enough of information for them to decide what they want to do. I know he got it and that says a lot. Edited July 23, 2021 by DAG 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
