Link Nick Saban literally just starts walking in, steps over Jeno James convulsing, doesn't say a word, doesn't try to help, goes upstairs, I don't know what he does. But then obviously they get Jeno 'trauma-offed' to the hospital.
They are going soft at Bama. A young Bear Bryant would have kicked the kid, though admittedly not the beloved old Codger I saw coaching in the 1970s..
He's enviously successful in the coaching ranks and comes across as smug sometimes so I can see why people don't like him.... but at the same time there's really not enough info in that article to say one way or the other without Saban's side of it.
If Vince lombardi did this, we would talk about how badass he is. Saban wins, and people hate on winners. Pure envy.
Mike Leach locked a kid up. Saban didn't do anything to this player, and he's not a medical professional, so i'm not sure what he could have done to help him. Saban is not a humanitarian, I'll grant you that, but the coaches that have repeated success are a-holes. Aka Parcells, Billichek, Saban, Meyer, etc
What Leach did was borderline-humorous, and not anything NEAR walking over a person convulsing who ended up in the hospital.
Why psychopaths make great CEOs Sounds like he's found his niche -- winning football games and championships at a place that places a huge value in that. But he's not necessarily who I would want to turn my 18 year old over to.
