Nick Saban’s Comment On Henry Ruggs Is Going Viral

He had a players only app on his phone. All he needs to do is tap the app, and he gets a car service to drive him home, no questions asked. All players have it. The NFL was a very good friend to him, by giving him the app. But he has to use it.

In a video that is going viral today, the Alabama head coach explained the importance of being a good friend as well as a good leader. Without saying Ruggs’ name, he said that if Ruggs’ friends had stepped up and taken his keys away the night he went out drinking and ultimately killed a person in an accident, Ruggs would have been better off. “What kind of friend were you?” Saban asked. “What kind of leader were you when you allowed the guy to do it? But nobody wants to do that because they’re afraid of what somebody is going to think of them.”

Basically friends dont let friends drive drunk.

I think what he was trying to say is we should legalize marijuana... bc there is not a couch in this world that goes 130mph...

I think Saban overthinks things sometimes. I don’t know the circumstances that occurred before Ruggs got in the car, but regardless the responsibility is 100% on him. He’s an adult.

Perhaps if some leader at his college had noticed his drug and/or alcohol consumption he could have gotten some type of aid.

Saban pandering again

Due processed.

Did Saban know Ruggs had a need for speed off the field at Alabama?

Saban, you're not mentor to your former players. Bryant and Stallings, they were mentors. You little man have much to learn, but a little too late now.

Oh, boo hoo. So what. I'm certainly glad none of us made any dumbass mistakes when we were young.
