Re: Redskins have claimed LB Reuben Foster
The thought has occurred to me that the reason we keep accumulating Alabama players has at least something to do with a long term play to lure Nick Saban to succeed Jay Gruden.

Re: Redskins have claimed LB Reuben Foster
I heard Saban does want another crack at the NFL. He strikes me as the kind of guy that wants to prove he is the best anyplace anywhere.

Why would Saban ever leave Bama. He hated his time in Cleveland and failed miserably with Miami. He is a God in college. |

Re: Redskins have claimed LB Reuben Foster
Logically I agree, but human ego is such that there's sometimes a desire to prove you can do more. Maybe he will stay in Alabama, you might be right. But humans don't always do what makes logical sense.

Re: Redskins have claimed LB Reuben Foster
A shit ton of money, and the challenge of redeeming himself at the pro level.

Re: Redskins have claimed LB Reuben Foster
I guess the eagles were also interested in Foster:

Re: Redskins have claimed LB Reuben Foster
Saban is 67 years old, it would make no sense to leave Alabama for the NFL at that age.

Re: Redskins have claimed LB Reuben Foster
I would take Saban in a heartbeat but I doubt he leaves Bama, he's the king there

Re: Redskins have claimed LB Reuben Foster
While that's great...his friend Bill Belichick is still held in much higher regard in that coaching fraternity because its the professional level. I think Saban is aware of that and wouldn't dispute that fact.

Apples and oranges. Let Saban have the same players at Bama like a Tom Brady for a decade. He would never lose - he doesn’t anyway. Lol. You are coaching teenagers. You have to recruit. They have standards that must be met. Ask people in Alabama or down south for that matter if they give a fuck about the NFL. Nope. College is no cakewalk compared to the pros. He coached under BB in Cleveland so of course he would give him the respect but Bear Bryant is as much a legend as Vince Lombardi. |
