Dear Nick Saban,
This is a letter I knew I’d have to one day write, but I’ve been telling myself it would be years before I’d have to write it. But I was wrong. And here I am, trying to put together thoughts and words as if somehow I’ll be able to somewhat convey how grateful
Let’s be honest, Nick Saban changed Alabama Athletics forever. For the better. He set the standard for ALL Alabama sports.
Tuscaloosa is FOREVER “Title Town” because of this man right here.

If you weren’t in Alabama on 4/27/11, I don’t expect you to understand why so many people are nervous on days like today. But I do expect you to be respectful. Many lost family and friends that day. Alabama will never be the same again when it comes to severe weather.
Let me tell you my favorite thing about Nick Saban.
It isn’t the # of SEC titles he’s won at Alabama.
It’s not the # of national championships he’s won at Bama.
It’s not the amount of $ he has donated to charity.
It’s not that # of top recruiting classes he’s had at Bama.
With all the drama surrounding Auburn and Bryan Harsin, I’m just thankful that Nick Saban has been at Alabama since 2007 without causing a single issue. Saban is a man of integrity, class, and character. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Grant Nelson and Mark Sears were 2 years old the last time Alabama made it to the Elite 8.
Rylan Griffen was 3 months old.
Sam Walters wasn’t even born yet.
Let that sink in.
We’ve waited 20 years for this.
For Nate Oats.
For this team.
For a shot at it all.
I can no longer remain silent about the Brandon Miller situation. The amount of defamation and slander this young man has had to endure is mind-blowing. First off, laws are laws. And according to laws in Alabama, Brandon did nothing wrong. Like it or not, he is innocent.
This is one of the big differences between Nick Saban and Dabo Swinney:
Dabo built his entire offense around Lawrence.
Saban built his entire offense around NO one player.
That’s why Dabo is rebuilding and Saban just has to reload.
#RollTide
I’m not about to beg a player to stay. Not even Caleb Downs. If he doesn’t want to be here, that’s on him. This team doesn’t need anyone with one foot out the door. We need players who are 100% committed and focused. Not hesitant and wishy washy. Downs has the opportunity to help
To all of those mad at my last post about Travis Kelce and messaging me, let me just say this: if ANY Alabama player had ever put their hands on Saban like that, they would’ve been kicked off the team immediately, and you know it. It is inexcusable behavior. I don’t care how good
ALL SEASON, Florida fans have whined about how Mac Jones is only “a good quarterback,” because of his receivers, haha.
My my my, how the tables have turned. 😂😂😂
Also, until there’s OFFICIAL word, do not tweet that Ryan Newman is dead. We don’t know his true status. Have respect for him and his family.

Can we please take a moment and appreciate the fact that a FEMALE agent just secured the biggest deal in NFL history?

11 years ago, Nate Oats was the head coach at Romulus High School in Michigan.
Tonight, He led Alabama to their first Elite 8 (NATE) in 20 years!!!! 🔥🔥🏀🏀

These are your Alabama team leaders for 2024.
Can’t wait to see this team play this fall! They’re playing with a chip on their shoulder and I’m PUMPED to watch them win it all!!!! Teams that play
If you really think that Alabama was going to showcase a lot of flashy plays yesterday, than you don’t really know Nick Saban. He’s smart. Logical. Analytical. And He knows better than to give his team’s week two opponent, Texas, anything to prepare for on film.

Here’s his stats for 2023:

53-53 on extra points
Scored 113 so far.
ANDDDDDD
HE also broke the NCAA all-time points record.
Auburn fans right now: “Bama barely beat GCU tonight.”
True. But we’re still in the tournament. And you’re not because y’all lost to YALE in the opening round.

It’s a dang shame that Brandon Miller has been attacked by the media for WEEKS by journalists who are hungry for retweets and clicks and clout. So much so, he’s had death threats, is in counseling, etc. These media outlets/journalists should be held accountable.
#RollTide
Four major positives:
1. Our defense looks 🔥 and that makes me happy. Focused, disciplined, and PUMPED up!
2. Will Reichard is the MVP. I no longer get scared when we attempt a field goal, haha.
3. Offense looked much better overall. Milroe can run. That’s for sure, haha.

Alabama softball needs to hire a hitting coach. ASAP. This has been an issue for years. If Murphy would hire a hitting coach, Alabama would finally be able to win another national championship.

Remember how we lost to LSU in the regular season in 2011 and then beat them for the national title that same year?
Same thing will happen against Texas this year!!
Alabama vs. Texas for the national championship.
Alabama wins 38-31 for the national title. Just wait.
We need Caitlin Clarks in the world. But we also need Hannah Stuekles.
She played the game of her career tonight.
She played the game of a lifetime tonight.
She’s the epitome of a team player.
She’s got the heart of the game.
But she’s not often in the spotlight.

"If we lost to an unranked conference opponent by 30 plus points we wouldn't even be having this conversation."
ONLY Alabama fans think it's a failure to go 10-2 and not make it to the playoffs. That says something about Nick Saban and the success he as created at Alabama.

I’ve gotten some of the most hateful messages I’ve ever received in my life because I’m sticking up for Brandon Miller’s rights as an innocent man. Its mind blowing. I’ve been told to kill myself. That I’m an ugly *****, that I deserve to die, and so on. All because
