Asked once again about the reception he'll receive in Baton Rouge from LSU fans, Saban delivered another gem of a retort as he continues to diffuse the subject: "I don't know why anybody is upset that I left because they've done better since I left than when I was there," he said

I won't cheer b/c he's the visitor .. but i won't boo the guy either. He won a national championship for LSU .... got a job offer from the NFL .. it didn't work out. Bama was open, he got a great contract and took it. No treason there ... just how things go.

Our defense definitely wouldn't be in the shape it is now. We certainly would have never seen a bonehead Mallveto C0-DC type of experiment....

Yep, doesn't bother me at all.
I hold alot more anger for Curley Hallman and Gerry Dinardo than I ever will for Nick. He runs a clean progam, doesn't come off as a cockbite(see Urban Mayer and Mark Richt) and has a real passion for the game.

That and I think we probably win one more NC in addition to last year and definitely another SEC title.

You've never had a good time with a girl, then at some point later said "frick that crazy bitch"?

Anywhere other than another SEC West team. That's just wrong man...if he would've went back to the Big 10, I don't think many would have a problem with him. Going to Bama though is crap.

Because he DID NOT man up before boarding the plane for Orlando for the Cap One Bowl, answering the questions about leaving in Baton Rouge.

He waited until he got to Orlando and with the team in the other room, announced he was leaving. Yeah, I am sure he is the world's greatest in his mind, Nick was a pretty good guy until he acted like he did on his way out.
