Title: Great article on Coach Saban Post by: 2Stater on December 03, 2012, 05:25:48 PM http://www.forbes.com/sites/monteburke/2012/12/03/five-leadership-lessons-from-nick-saban/
Quote A side note: I have to relay one story I heard when reporting my story on Saban that’s always stuck with me. The story: Saban and Mal Moore, the Alabama athletic director, were flying to Tuscaloosa on the plane from Miami when Saban was hired to coach the Crimson Tide. As the story goes, Saban turned to Moore and asked “what do you think you’ve got with me as a coach?” Moore stammered a bit, then said: “I think we got the best coach in the country.” Saban responded: “No, you didn’t. But you got the best da#@ recruiter that ever lived.” :clap: Title: Re: Great article on Coach Saban Post by: Old Tider on December 03, 2012, 06:47:02 PM It is a great article, 2. Many thanks.
I still enjoy our enemy who said in that first year to enjoy Saban, because he'd be gone in a couple of years.

I read his book "How great do you want to be" I was ready to run through the wall and take control. I use some of those things with my staff.

One of my business partners has been telling me for 6 yrs that Saban will be gone the first time somebody offers him more money. :lol2: |
