Tidefans will just go in denial and the mods will just delete, delete, delete.

It actually makes sense that Nick would go. Very easy conference, only have to win 2-3 big games max with no conference championshiop, instead of the 7-8 in the SEC, just to get to Atlanta.

Timing couldnt have been worse.(or should I say better) All recruits that have not etched in stone their commital to bama has got to be rethinking. Saban already has a history of telling his potential recruits less than the truth about playing time and the like, and now this. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You undecided young men shouldnt touch bama with a 10'pole!!!!

While I enjoy any Bama meltdown, why would Nick leave Bama's delusional fanbase and go to WVU's delusional fanbase?

Isn't that why he's "unhappy at Bama"?

I thought he was unhappy because the boosters are getting far more involved then he wants.

There are many, many, many reasons to be unhappy at Bama!

Not as delusional, not as much competition to get to the NC or any BCS game, programs in better shape, and he's from WV... he's got to like morgantown more than tuscaluuuoomygodthisplacesucks.

Just think if this is true and he leaves the Bammers on Christmas Day! This will be ironic indeed, not to mention nostalgic, and the total implosion of the Bammers program. What a revolting development this is for the Bammers!
Oh well, you lie with a snake and the snake bites ya! That is all!

Bamascoop, how do you feel about the fact that Saban contacted WVU and not the other way around. It isnt a rumor either, WVU is confirming. Thoughts.

While this is probably just a rumor, this is the predicament that Saban has put himself in. Reputations like the ones Saban and Petrino have are earned from experience. Therefore, you can't just dismiss it out of hand.

I have not seen that it has been confirmed by the University, I may have missed that thread. If it is true, I think he is using it as a tool to get the last few remaining boosters at Alabama that continue to get in his business to back off. I think it is to his advantage to keep Mal Moore and Bryant Jr. thinking that he may leave if they don;t back off. Just my thoughts.

2nd update

*** UPDATE #2 *** Well, it’s not a stone-cold confirmation, but our friend Mike Casazza can’t verify that the story isn’t true. Pardon the double negative, but it looks like this baby certainly has legs.
