Proud Tiger 4,261 Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Slick Nick held a press conference today. He wore a yellow shirt which perfectly complimented the purple one he wore to the BB game Tuesday night that got a lot of comments. Slick basically told the attendees that he was going to be busy recruiting and other things for the next several weeks so to ask any questions they had now and don't bother him until March. Spring training will be delayed (read until I get a staff and get organized to do it). He said no one has been offered the job as OC (and his nose grew at least 3 inches). He admonished the media to be careful what they report as "offered" vs. being "interviewed" since it can circumvent the process he had rather not be made public (heard this before? I think this guy was born to be at bama). I guess we have to believe Slick Willy, er. i mean Slick Nick (I'm not going to bama) rather than Jimbo Fisher. He chastised the host of a local radio program who asked him about player evaluation. He sent a clear message he has little use for the press so don't annoy me. This may work in the short term but he will see the press turn on him when the honeymoon is over. The bammers are reacting like masochists..... enjoying the pain and hollering for him to whip them some more. This is going to be sooooooo funny to watch over the next year.

This is going to be sooooooo funny to watch over the next year. Haha, good point! The Sports Radio guys around here are all like "Man, when you try to talk to him in the hallways he totally ignores you, it's so awesome!" They'll soon regret this attitude, I'm certain.

80Tiger 904 Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 On a radio program this morning Jimbo Fisher said he was "offered" the OC at UA and he just made a decsion to go to FSU instead. He had a choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUesquire 1 Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 The problems with the press will NOT go very far at Bama. Even their own fans got tired of defending Shula for staying mum about the things that fans want to know about the most. In this day and age of the information superhighway (For lack of a better term) people want to know and they want to know now. Bama fans will grow tired of this cat real quick if he refuses to cooperate with the press and give them some scoop on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleDrill 178 Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 But only if he loses. If he doesn't hurry up and get some coaches and start recruiting, he may not even play a game next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tigrinum Major Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 It was more of a periwinkle. No, wait, that was at the triumphant arrival. The one Tuesday night was more of an eggplant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SEC will cancel the season if "The Coach" says so. The recruits have already started the pilgrimage so don't worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wore a yellow shirt which perfectly complimented the purple one he wore to the BB game Tuesday night that got a lot of comments. The one he wore tuesday night wasnt purple. Quote from a bama poster on a bama board........"He is an intimidating bastard for the media, The yellow (gold) shirt he wore today compliments his purple shirt from the other night." And on a completely different bama board and by a different poster just as the basketball game was about to get underway........."he's in the stands and, unless he changes it, he has on a PURPLE SHIRT." (the caps are the poster's, not mine). So I guess you should go to the bama boards and tell your buds it wasn't purple. I suppose it's all in the eye of the beholder. I could not care less.

AUChizad 0 Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Just found this. Looks kind of maroon to me. However, next to the guy in Crimson who's kind of behind him in that picture, I can see that looking purple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In every pic I've seen of him lately he looks like a whipped puppy who is pissed he has to endure all this crap with a FB coach making 8 times (?) what he is making.

tiger88 934 Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 It's closer to purple than crimson thats for sure. This guy is turning into a real peach. Talks down to his secretaries, ignores people who try to talk to him. The karma builds. I guess jimbo fisher is a liar since saban says he hasn't offered anyone.

Guess we can say he's clean, if nothing else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthLink02 8 Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 I am telling ya'll, I can't wait to see the fight he has with the media when he losses 3-4-5 games next year. He is going to go off on some people and/or kick out other media members and.....whatever else. I am not sure what he will do with Finebaum if Finebaum starts mocking him.

If he loses 4-5 games next season just sit back and shut up. Slink, you need any bricks for the NO rebuild? Suitcase Saban may have a few he wants to move if he loses that many games.
