Celebrate Alabama's #1 Recruiting Class in Style!

Found January 16, 2012 on The Hoover Street Rag:
PLAYERS: Nick Saban
TEAMS: Alabama Crimson Tide

Allstate_sugar_bowl_1ec6
So Nick Saban is it again, grayshirting Atlanta RB Justin Taylor with an loophole-errific promise of a job offer while he's not playing football. If Crimson Tide fans can celebrate their "national championship" with obnoxious T-shirts, Tide haters should get to celebrate this turn of events with a T-shirt of their own. In honor of the reports that Saban and Taylor signed a contract on a napkin, we offer up this stylish homage to Alabama's national championship shirt: The "script A" logo is a trademark of the University of Alabama. Use protected as parody.

Nick Saban Gets The Celebratory Pizza Treatment

Via Kegs 'n Eggs  |  January 16, 2012
The statewide celebration of Alabama’s 4,567 national championship is on, and the BCS Coaches’ Trophy is making its way around the state for photo ops that will undoubtedly result in hilarity and other emotions down similar avenues.

University of Alabama head coach Nick Saban announced Wednesday the hiring of Doug Nussmeier as Alabama’s offensive coordinator. Nussmeier spent the last three seasons on the staff at the University of Washington, where he held the same title. He takes over for Jim McElwain, who was recently named the head coach at Colorado State.

Is Nick Saban opening up a new front in the oversigning wars?

Via Get The Picture  |  January 16, 2012
Nick Saban tells a kid who verballed to ‘Bama last February that his time hasn’t come yet, and that he’ll have to wait until 2013 to sign with the Tide.  That damned new SEC hard-25 rule claims its first victim. But here’s the most interesting part: “Coach Saban said he wished he would’ve been able to tell me this in August instead of now.  He said the...

Oversigning and Justin Taylor

Via Bama Sports Report  |  January 16, 2012
I've defended Alabama's signing practices in this space (and via Twitter), many times in the last few years. And, I've been repeatedly savaged for being a Nick Saban "apologist". I've always countered that there are things that trouble me about oversigning (most notably situations like what Les Miles did to Elliott Porter), but I felt that Nick Saban'...

Doug Nussmeier To Take Alabama Offensive Coordinator Job

Via Crystal Ball Run  |  January 17, 2012
Nick Saban is no stranger to having his staff picked through in the offseason as he's lost guys like Major Applewhite to Texas and Kevin Steele to Clemson in recent seasons. This year is no different as Sal Sunseri heads to Tennessee to take on their defensive coordinator duties and Jim McElwaine heads to Colorado State to become the head coach of the Rams. It seems that Saban...

In ironic twist, 'Bama "grayshirts" new OC after oversigning coaches

(from MZone wire reports) TUSCALOOSA, AL -- The MZone has learned that newly hired Alabama offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeir is being asked to sit out the 2012 season and join the Crimson Tide staff next year because Nick Saban has signed too many football coaches. Nussmeir, who had been the offensive coordinator at Washington, found out only after he and his family arrived in...

No hard feelings, Derek.

You’re Nick Saban.  You’ve been grooming one of your top recruiters and position coaches to fill the Kirby Smart slot that will open up when some other school takes a shot at hiring Smart as its new head coach, only to see one of your former protegés step in and make him an offer he couldn’t refuse.  All that hard work, gone to waste.  Then, to top it off, he...

Les Miles Reflects On Losing Kiel And The BCS National Championship Game

Via IMAGE CPR  |  January 17, 2012
LSU head football coach Les Miles was in a reflective mood as he reacted to quarterback recruit Gunner Kiel’s decision to enroll at Notre Dame instead of playing for the Tigers. "Young people make a variety of decisions for a variety of reasons,” Miles said. “A guy in the Midwest wanting to stay close to home was his right decision. I can understand that. We need...

First things first, I want to thank the guys here at Cemetery Hill for contacting me and inviting me to participate in the strength and conditioning podcast a few weeks ago. Not long after the podcast, I wrote a follow-up article to further express my concerns with the player development issues at Clemson.
