bigsixfive 328 Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 I'm beginning to wonder if the coaches at uat have their hands tied by higher ups. Its pretty obvious that Saban is Shula II, even if they were to beat Auburn next week (after all, we are in a down year ). Look at the trends between them, its scary. I think the emotional lift (that most new coaches bring in) has worn off by now, and they're playing exactly like they were last year with arguably better talent and more experience. Is ol' Mal the real coach of uat? What about their BOT? Obviously, it'd be a little insane to think they dictate all the play calling, but what about the roster? What about dictating disciplinary actions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamaphan 0 Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 so is Saban a good coach being hamstrung by the good ole boy network? we lost and the coaching should take a rather large portion of the blame. it doubt it was Mal calling plays from his suite or PBJ from his suite.

AUJarhead 70 Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Saban doesn't strike me as the kind of guy who would let Mal tell him how to run his football program. I'd like to hear the official reason regarding Hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarTim 3,456 Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Discipline? @ uat? I have never heard of such a terrible rumor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to hear the official reason regarding Hall. Money talks.... It just seems odd to me. I don't remember him being like this at LSU. Maybe he was and my memory is the problem.

SouthLink02 8 Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 There is not a chance whatsoever that anyone else is controlling the team other then Saban. He redefines control freak. Anyone that works around or with him can attest to that. If Mal or anyone else remotely tried to tell him what to do, I doubt that person would ever get the chance to say the same thing again to Nick...even if that person was a higher-up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a deity that is omnipotent and is incapable of flaw. Oh yeah, it's Shula's fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
