This is what's insane:
People actually being nuts about it.
They are just going to fire him too as soon as Auburn beats Bama a time or 2.

Did anyone catch the mass chaos when he got off the plane and he and his family were trying to just get inside?!?!?! It was a redneck rampage. He even got seperated from his wife and kids.... thats just plain disrespectful. Welcome to Tuscaloosa Saban

Oh I think he'll do a good job, as long as the boosters let him do his job. Its going to make for one heck of a 2007 SEC season. UA vs LSU and UA vs AU are gonna be veeeery interesting.

I loved the redneck woman in the crowd begging Mrs. Saban for her autograph and saying "Oh Jesus, I'll love you forever!"

Some woman called in to WJOX this morning and said she was so happy they got Saban and that she'd been praying that Alabama would get a good coach. Do you really think Alabama football is near the top of God's priority list?

It's just football folks!

The only saving grace of Saban is that he has no connection what so ever to the Bear. Thank god that finally the Tide has a coach that doesn't have ties to him.

Time will tell.
