Just wondering if Saban ever hit a tree while driving in his neighborhood in Baton Rouge. Word out of Tuscaloosa is that he and wife Terry were coming home yesterday and hit a tree head on in their neiborhood. The tree won. No word on sobriety test or tickets being issued.

There was a small piece about that in the Atlanta paper this morning. It quoted a spokesman from the Tuscaloser Police as saying it was a "minor accident." My first thought was DUI.

How do you hit a tree if it isn't DUI? I'm sure that the Tuscaloosa PD will report it though.

If it wasn't DUI, then maybe he got a call that Julio Jones was going to Oklahoma and he lost control?

Or, maybe he got that return call from the NCAA about that little investigation that's been going on?

How do you hit a stationary tree and not be drunk on your arse?

How do you get a DUI in Bama from the Bama police if your CNS?

don't really know if winds get that bad in Tuscaloosa. I remember during Katrina some tree's fell, but no way it could cause it in December. I smell a cover up. The local BP has a wide selection of MD 20/20, hmmm.

Considering that Alabama and Georgia are in a drought right now, and the soil isn't that stable...

Hell, there are several trees in my neighborhood that are leaning over right now because of the water crisis.

I almost hit him on Dec 23rd in 2004. It was like 7 in the morning and he was over at that second house where his father-in-law stayed puttign a wreath on the mailbox. He just walked around right in front on Highland and was decorating. At the time, I was like oh shite, I just nearly killed our coach. Of course, 2 days later he said he was leaving.

There was an article in the Advocate this morning. Next thing we will have in the paper is an article about when he wipes or what he eats for breakfast,lunch and dinner.

I bet he was drunk. You don't just run into a tree in the middle of the road. There was not even another car around. Bentley was trashed.
