Had 2 run ins with him
1- I was walking back from class when they dedicated the locker room for Jeff Boss with some boosters and I just walked up like I was supposed to be there. Emmert was there as well and he invited everyone to walk around the locker room so I did. Emmert and Saban stood by the door shaking everyone’s hand as they left. He definitely had an inkling I wasn’t supposed to be there but I was some high rollers kid as far as he knew so he just shook my hand and looked at me like he wanted to punch me in the face.
2- I was walking into Superior for the coaches show as he was walking up. I said hi and he basically brushed me aside.

Friend was a walk-on at LSU during the Saban years. Never sniffed the field and was just a practice body. For many years after his playing days, Saban would call him on his birthday to wish him well and get a quick life update from him. I was shocked by that
