But on the first day of auditions - that is, preseason camp - Nick Saban sounded more like a coach who lost four players to the first round of the NFL draft than a coach who had a record 16 players earn preseason All-Southeastern Conference recognition. "We had probably the best test results around here that we've had in a couple years, based on how many guys passed the test," Saban said Friday following the first practice. "We had the lowest number of guys fail the test I think for three years, so that's encouraging. "Still, we have to go out on the field and really need to play. There's a lot of opportunities at a lot of positions for players." http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2011/08/crimson_tide_football_practice.html Title: Re: Crimson Tide football practice field a land of opportunity Post by: Jamos on August 06, 2011, 12:05:19 PM I sure would like to know more about "the test" and what all is required of the players.

In other words they showed up ready to go and had a good practice.

In other words they showed up ready to go and had a good practice. At least that is what it seemed like to me after watching the interview where he talked about it. It kind of takes on a different meaning and is a little out of context when you read the direct quotes from the article.
