Nick Saban<\/p>\n

I know, having a picture of Nick Saban<\/strong> on VolNation is almost sacrilegious. However, I found this story too good to pass up.<\/p>\n

I heard this on a local radio show from Friday:<\/p>\n

When Nick Saban<\/strong> first came to Alabama, he saw a bunch of guys walking around campus with their pants low showing their underwear – as is the style these days.<\/p>\n

One of the first meetings he had in the spring, Coach Saban<\/strong> stood in front of his team and dropped his pants, turned around and did a 360 and then pulled them up. He then walks to the other side of the room, where everybody could see him really well, and pulls down his pants and does the same thing again.<\/p>\n

You can imagine the looks on the players faces.<\/p>\n

He then walks back to the front of the room and says (paraphrased to the best of my memory), “Alright guys, you’ve seen my rear end. If i see your underwear anymore you are really going to see my rear end and you are not going to like it the next time.” <\/em><\/p>\n

It’s almost like he took a play out of the Ed Orgeron<\/strong> play-book. The Ole Miss coach ripped off his shirt at his first team meeting when he arrived in 2006 and challenged the toughness of his players.<\/p>\n

I guess the question for Mr. Saban<\/strong> is, boxers or briefs?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
