  • What is nick sabans discipline plan like? Do y'all's players have strict curfews or do they just behave? Just curious to see how he does it honestly it seems to work...

    The REC pays off the cops. Bammers get arrested all the time you just never hear about it in the bammer media.

    This was a serious question. I was just curious if anyone knew.

    Honestly, I understand that he has players(mostly upperclassmen) that are voted to be a part of a team council. They hold the other guys repsonsible and actually take a vote and make recommendations on punishment when rules are violated. Obviously, punishment is ultimately decided by Coach Saban but I thought this was a great way of hold players accountable to their peers and fellow teammates.

    I'm sure he emphasizes from day one the standards and code of conduct he expects from each player. There is a great emphasis on education and off the field behavior. They know the consequences if they misbehave.

    To a degree though, these are 18-21 year old kids. We have just been fortunate to have very few problem kids the past 3-4 years. That's just reality.

  • It starts in the type players you recruit. While Auburn and Alabama have fought over a few kids each year for the last 4-5 years, we have recruited a large majority of different players.

    Thank you for answering my question.

    That's how it should be done.

    Wrong.

    Saban scares the hell out of them.

  • lol bammer had a ton of players arrested during Saban's first two or threee years and then he met with the Tuscaloser mayor and chief of police and ordered them to stop arresting bammer players. That might seem like a joke, but it is absolutely true.

    That is why you have had two bammer players sued by regular students for beating the crap out of them, but the players were never arrested by the police. That is why you have also had a couple of bammer players arrested in other cities. That is why you had a bammer player beaten unconscious at 3 o'clock in the morning earlier this year on the Tuscaloser strip and the police never released any details of what happened

    This is a great and accurate post.

    There is a ton of consideration during recruiting as to the character of the young man. Saban has made very few bad choices in his recruiting as far as performance on the field, and leadership on and off the field.

    Anyone remember Duran Carter…..never took the field.

    Saban also does not "air the dirty laundry." Humiliating a young person does not solve anything.

  • There is a "point system" in place that takes into consideration such things as class/tutoring session attendance and performance as well as on field/practice effort. There is also a team leadership council and a group of team rules that if violated, carry specific punishments if not adhered to. My father-in-law had a very similar discipline system when he was coaching. It worked well at both universities he coached at. It is not perfect but very effective and a system that his players considered to be very fair.

    Sounds about right to me. That's what I would do.

    Had to get rid of the bad apples. Oh and please elaborate on some of these "players" you speak of. Funny how none of us have heard of most of these. Oh yeah that's right because they never happened.
