What an idiot.

But then again now he's going to get talked about in the news cycle, so maybe it's calculated.

He's still an idiot, though.

quote:

You don't call Nick Saban, 'Nick.' Don't call me Deion," Sanders told Nick Suss from the Clarion Ledger.

"If you call Nick (Saban), Nick, you'll get cussed out on the spot, so don't do that to me," Sanders later added. "Treat me like Nick."
That’s a bit silly.

And I’m pretty sure some reporters do call him Nick, no?

Isn’t the first name thing a sign of respect? They’re saying you’re legendary enough to be called by your first name and people still know exactly who they’re talking about.

What a drama queen.

As if Coach K or Coach O or Pop is so much more formal

Yes, and Nick doesn't care.

Address him as Coach Prime and do not look him in the eyes.

Get on his level as a coach, and then you can demand to be called something different that what everyone has always called you.

Why tf would they call him anything but Nick?

They're not going to call him Mr. Saban. He's not their coach, so you also wouldn't call him Coach Saban.

So what else would a reporter call Nick Saban, I don't get it.

100% false. He's called Nick in literally every presser and does not care.

Media days are pretty useless now in the age of twitter DMs and teleconferencing

Plain Dealing High School had a media day

Dumbass. Calling him “Coach” is disrespect.

Now I can’t take JSU serious.

Way to show your insecurity, Coach Sanders.

You'd think being in the Hall of Fame would make someone secure. I guess not.
