would like to see us cheer or clap for him, put this damn thing behind us and move on , we have a great coach now and we appreciate what he did for us, we had a mutually beneficial relationship


I completely agree. He did a lot for us. Period.

I was talking with a friend, and he said that if he scores tickets to the LSU/Bama game, he will consider tossing money onto the field.

Hey you know what? In a perfect world, that sounds great. WELCOME TO REALITY. People are going to boo that prick not because we're not grateful for what he did while here, but because of his actions right at the end of the 2004 season, and his actions the first 9 months of being at Bama.

I have a whole wish list of things I wish people would do or not do. But man come on, don't be so naiive.

I don't plan on booing him either, but not for the same reasons expressed here. Booing would show that I care that he is at Alabama, and we feel he should be at LSU.

I despise the guy now like I despise Dietzel, he the best thing going in his life and he left LSU for what seemed like greener pastures. It did not take either of them long to realize that they left the best situation they could have had. Now for the first time in his life he completely failed in Miami, and he is stuck in a living hell in Alabama trying to be the second coming of The Bear. Good for him.

I am happy with Miles, he had the opportunity but had the wisdom to look at the situation and say, "These guys have been great to me here, what better could I have by leaving."

Saban deserves the situation he has now, and I don't care about his arrogant arse anymore.

I agree. I would really like it if when Bama pulls up to teir locker room, NO Tiger fans are around at all. Why get them even more fired up than they will be already? Thnk about the looks on all of their faces as they get off the buses and nobody is screaming at em...
Psych em out this way...it's better than trying to intimidate them.

To be honest here!! LSU fans should be more worried about WINNING the game than whether or not to BOO Saban!!! Just sayin.

Would anyone consider not booing when Saban comes to Tiger Stadium in November?


I will probably shout "Tiger Bait", but to Alabama, not Saban in particular.

Saban played huge role in LSU's 03 NC and at least a small one in 07's. Yes he coaches for a rival and we need to kill Bama on the field but would it be viewed classy if we showed him more respect than he showed us?


If I run into him on the street, I will show him due respect. If he is on the field coaching the opposing team, I will treat him the way I treat every coach for every opposing team...as the enemy.

I AM GOING TO BRING A WORLD OF PAIN DOWN ON MYSELF, BUT HERE GOES.

We should give him a standing ovation at the introduction. A raucous, conquering hero cheer.

Then we should proceed to make more noise and boo his arse every time he steps near the field, talks to a ref, runs off the field, etc. we should make more noise that day than we ever have.

We should acknowledge his EPIC contribution to LSU , not only because he won a BCS title and put us back on the map, but because it reflects upon US. And ya gotta admit, it would really unnerve him to get exactly the reception he wouldn't expect. It might throw him off his game.

We should follow the SPURRIER example even if the circumstances are different.

Get up by 14 then give him whatever. Personally I say give him a hand when he arrives and then kick arse accordingly.

I will never cheer a opposing team or it's coach
in Tiger Stadium
If I were to meet him on the street I would thank him for his years at LSU

So on 11/08 = BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

for those "worried" about winning the game remember....unless you name is Alexander or Francois you're not really a factor in winning the game....there's enuf to worry about that I have control over. Besides, I'm just introducing topics for fans to discuss. I trust the actual team will be ready for bama

good point 32....I'd be mature and not boo her when she walks into the room. I rise above it and act like a real man.

and Beaker is my favorite muppet.

I plan to cheer when his name is announced.If he had not come here and launched the tigers on this journey this board and everything else in tigerkingdom would still be stuck in the 90's.How much of you had anything good to say in the 90's.....................I thought so.

+1

Imagine she is a gold digging bitch, she dumps you for the older, richer man, and then dumps HIM, and goes out with a guy you fricking hate. Would you seriously give her a hug and a nice smile if she comes over to your house for dinner?
