re: Is Nick Saban the Paul Crewe of Louisiana?

I'm just saying is all but...Didn't Paul Crewe end up gaining the trust and confidence of his teammates and end up winning the big game, even earning the respect of his opponent?

Are you saying that Coach Saban is going to be the real winner in this scenario?

I guess you forgot the part about meeting Eddie Arnold (the Warden) at half-time. The Warden threatened Crewe and then promised him that none of Crewe's inmate buddies would be hurt by the guards if Crewe threw the game. Crewe agreed and Crewe set out to throw the game indeed. Crewe only changed his mind and started playing to win the game once he saw the Warden lied. The guards were up by more than ten points and yet they were still trying to kill the inmates in the game by playing dirty. Crewe reverted to his selfish, take care of number one attitude, and threw his whole team under the buss to take advantage of the Warden’s promise of an early parole. Guess who that sounds like…Nick Saban…

What a selective memory you have.
