While this video is 7 years old, I just saw it for the first time thanks to my brilliant son. All I can say is if this philosophy was mandatory for every person in a position of authority our world would be a much better place. To the people who have ever made a mistake and needed a second chance, I can only hope you’ve had someone like Nick Sabin in your corner. #GreatManGreatCoach
This why he recruits. This is why he wins. There is an SEC High School senior (and his parents) on the fence that just decided to commit to Alabama. I am a UGA loyalist but Bama has the best leader.
Christopher Stevens btw if it is weak why is LSU, Georgia, Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Texas a&m ranked in the top 25 and having 5 of them ranked in the top 10? Name a conference with more than that please sir
Na more FATHERS need this attitude out there More MEN need this attitude Not enough people have life experience to understand what others go through Especially at a young age
“Do you want to condemn them or have their children go to Princeton”? Didn’t mention a lavish life for one’s own, but mentioned what it could do for a generation. Say what you want about the man, family is imperative to him.
Nick Saban is embellishing this story about Muslin Muhammad. It was actually Mohammed’s prior coach at Michigan State, George Perles, who didn’t kick him off the team after the gun possession incident. Muhammad played for Perles and continued to play when Saban got the Michigan State job.
Don’t compare this shit to cancel culture, yes sometimes it gets too far but I wouldn’t want my kids alone in a room with Harvey Weinstein or Kevin Spacey
I think the principle is about restoring. Consequences, punishment, should come but how are we giving opportunities to restore and redeem. You can tell when someone is putting forth the effort to redeem themselves. Punish but restore if they don’t want to cut them.
Couches Saban , Stallings and Bryant were more about education and graduation than anything. Sure they want and guide players to standout on the field but not at the demise of curriculum.
