    You like Saban? Man I'll give you he's a great coach, but unless you are a
    Bama fan I can't see what there is to like. He never smiles, he's pretty parsimonious with the quips, interviews, comments, etc. All business.

    I think Terry you stated some of the things I like. He's all business and he's been pretty gracious to opposing coaches as best I can tell.

    I do know he has some quirks, I didn't like him leaving my Dolphins etc.

    Probably a better way to state it is that I respect him and his accomplishments. If I had a team that needed a coach I would probably love to see him come our way.

    Respects for his accomplishments is actually a better way to put it.

    how can't you like Saban? He wins and he makes the media his b*tch. You gotta respect that.

    Saban

    <t>well, he does recruit well and he wins. Not someone you really feel an affinity for.</t>

    I would say Kiffin is the one coach in the SEC who needs to pay the closest attention to this new toothy rule.

    In fact you could almost call it the "Kiffin rule"....

    I'll bet he will be biting his lip often.

    Maybe Slive is a Gator? :D
