Hate is strong word. The fact is most LSU fans thought Nicky was a prick when he was at LSU but he won ball games so we put up with it. Now that he's the HC at Bama there is even more reason to dislike the guy. Turn it around. You think Nick is a nice human being? If he wasn't the HC at Bama you'd be roasting the guy. Nicky is an egotistical prick who is generally an unpleasant human being to be around. He's tyrannical. His insecurity drives him like a demon to be successful. Enjoy the success he's brought to Bama but don't try and act like you like the guy or that he's a great guy.
Don't start this BS up again. Most LSU fans don't really give a chit about Nick. Those that hate him are few and evenly matched by Bamafans who hate Les Miles.
I've been away from the computer for a while but I see that Andouille pretty well summed up my feelings about NS.
Bull****....... if he would have announced his departure after the Cap 1 bowl vs. Iowa, and would have won that game i would have no hard feelings. But he announced before and then lost to an inferior Iowa team. He started Matt Flynn for god's sake in his first career start? WTF????? His head was in Miami, while he was in Orlando. Thats why i despise nick saban, not because he coaches in alabama, i was glad he took that job because it gave us an opportunity to kick his ass!!!
You do realize we win that game if Ronnie Prude doesn't blow a coverage, please tell me how Nick Saban caused a blown coverage? I don't like the way he left either. I don't like the man personally but I do think he is a great coach. Get over it, he isn't a great human being, and his track record has proved it, just like it has proved that he is a great college coach when he has great resources at his disposal.
