Can somebody find the transcript of Saban’s locker room rant after the Blue Grass Miracle when he told Jordy to GTFO then he went off on Bama being cheaters? Francione refused to shake his hand because of it.

Transcript of Coach Saban speech to team after game The Kid says: {PLAYERS CHEERING, BREATHING, MIXED EMOTIONS, LOCKERS SLAMMING} Alright... everybody get in here, take a knee. No I mean it get in close, I want everybody in close together, because I can barely talk. Jordy get the hell out of here. {PLAYERS GATHER IN} Everybody quiet...QUIET. Some of you juniors and seniors, it's going on three years and by now you guys know me well enough to know that there's no way in hell I can really be happy about this game. And I'm sorry. I know it's a big thing for everybody else -- and it's a great feeling, and it's better to be on this end of it than the other end. But for those of you who know me, you know that I can't be happy about this. Maybe inside of your own heads you can, but I can't. There came a point in this game where in the third quarter, both offensively and defensively when we should have put this game away. I give all the credit in the world to the players in that other locker room, but we should have dominated that team over there realtive to the strengths on this football team and the strengths on that one. And I'll tell you I'm angry about it. Unfortunately for us, they're going to be replaying this game all week -- you're going to hear about this game all the time. But instead of saturating your minds with this, I challenge each and every one of you to do something different. Instead of the 24-hour rule that we have, let's take this game, this game because what happened out there was so unusual relative to reality, relative to what normally happens, let's take this game and say "You know what, we're going to change our 24 hour rule into a 24-minute rule." Meaning that it'll be over as soon as we're done here. The reason I say that is because I can't think of any other way to re-direct my anger about what went on in the second half of that football game today. And when I think of the Alabama game, I see a tremendous oppotunity for us to rectify what went on here today. Of course, Alabama can't win the SEC Championship -- and we're the defending SEC Champions. So this is their SEC Championship. They're over there saying "Oh the NCAA stopped us from going to going to the championship, so we we're going to show them that we're the best team in the conference by beating LSU in Baton Rouge. Can you imagine the *****ng nerve. Can you imagine the ****ing nerve. Another words, we got caught cheating, so we're going to go out and show the rest of the conference that we're really the best team, even though we're cheaters. I'll tell you right now, I'mnot letting that bulls**t happen to our SEC Championsip. Well, that's our SEC Championship. That's our SECChampionship that we earned on the field. That's our SEC Championship that the kids over there with thousands of dollars in their pockets are trying to redeem their season with. I guarantee to you that will be the best team we've faced all year. Probably the only one that's so obviously broken the rules. I mean do we get to do pas intereference all game? Dominick, you look like you've been through hell today, brusises all over -- at the end of the game do I say, here's $200,000? Have I ever given you $200,000? Believe me, I'd like to -- but that's the rules. That's the rules. {SILENCE} {SABAN, HIS VOICE BEGINNING TO CRACK} I'll tell you the answer - No. Hell No. **** No. I am a competitor. I want win with what I earned,what we as a team have earned -- not with what I some ****ing booster gave me. Everyone in this room wanted to come here -- and maybe some of you were offered money to go otherplaces. What F** King nerve -- we don't want the team in Atanta to be the best team in conference????? Are you kidding me??? If no one else says it I'll say it. THAT IS BULLSH**T. Let me tell you something, the best will be in Atlanta this year. Whether it's us or somebody else. After we get through with Alabama, no one will doubt that the best team will be in Atlanta. And you know what, I don't care if Tyler Watts and every kid on that team is driving a Lexus... IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER I don't care if we have to physically make the referees look at the ****** Jumbotron on every F***king play IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER I don't care of if all of their players get a Chrsitmas bonus and a 401k plan... IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER I don't care if Matt's out for this season...If Toe's got a broken arm...If Damon leaves the team...If marcus is playing on half a leg... IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER If you're an American, if you like to compete, if you like football then those sh*tholes with numbers on their helmets coming into Tiger Stadium -- talking with all of their bulls**T about the best team in the conference should make you very, very ANGRY. This is a stake in the coffin game. Get close everybody. I know there have been a lot of distractions -- I don't give a sh*t abbout anything else that's going on. From a coaching standpoint, Coach Fischer and Coach Muschamp and all of us are going to put you in a position to win that game -- and I don't mean like last year when we kind of dominated the game, but only won by two touchdowns. I mean a total F** ing game from everyone on team. Is there anybody in this room who thinks we've put together a complete game this year -- anybody? No. Well, from this moment on -- understand it, feel it, know it that everything we do this week relative to preparation right up and execution of every moment -- right up until the very last second of that game will be focussed on total and complete domination.

He was such a dildo. Wasn't even real. That was the most miserable game I've ever been to in Tiger Stadium because it was bitterly cold with the wind blowing through your soul and LSU never did a thing on offense and got shut out. Bama hasn't beaten us bad in Tiger Stadium once since then. And Francione went to aTm, sucked and got canned.

If anyone has more back story on this, I’m interested


Gather round...

Full disclosure...that was my cousin that wrote that. He had written it and posted in on what was the free board outside the paywall on TigerRoar.

Thing was, it wasn't meant as a hoax. It was obviously a joke, but he did it so well and had Saban's speech pattern down, that it was kind of plausible if you didn't know. Only obvious tell was that he had references to the bill Murray movie, Meatballs, in places...IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER! it was meant just as a joke for LSU fans...never meant to be seen as some fake Saban speech or anything.

But, in typical BAMA fan fashion, they went insane when they saw it, and suddenly Saban was answering questions about it at press conferences. Because I knew the backstory, I spent a couple of days emailing some a-hole Alabama reporter trying to convince him it was fake, but the guy simply would not accept it. older guy too...can't remember his name anymore.

Eventually my cousin's dad did get to speak with Saban, who was pissed obviously. Think he called him the Sunday after BAMA killed us 31-0. And my cousin who wrote it had written a big apology by that point, but it was kind of too late.

It was funny as hell...and still makes me laugh thinking that there have to be a TON of BAMA fans who would allow Saban to rail their wives and daughters who, back in 2002, thought he actually gave that speech and hoped he'd die!

I'm glad someone found it! it's been years since I've read it, and holy shite he really had him pegged. All the "relative to" stuff. Only thing he missed was mentioning "the process" somewhere in there...

Bama couldn't do anything with the victory though because, surprise, they were on probation.
