A little known...or forgotten.... fact is that Nick Saban was on the football team & he & 2 of his roommates had planned on going to see the protestors. Specifically, to the area where the National Guard shot & killed protesters. One of his roommates changed his mind & didn't want to go, so all 3 bailed. Such is history.

That’s story makes everything seem so small and connected.

i wonder what nick sabans view of the draft was. they were drafting back then by birthdays. if your birthday was one of the first 50 or so picked each year, you were going to vietnam. i guess if you went to college you got a deferment. anyway, many joined other military branches instead of being drafted into the army.
