    Nick Saban goes to Heaven and enters the Pearly Gates, God takes him on a tour. He shows him a little two-bedroom house with a faded Alabama banner hanging on the front porch. "This is your house, Coach," God says happily. "Most people don't get their own houses up here." Nick looks at the house, then turns around and ...looks at the one sitting on top of the hill. It's huge, beautiful two-story m...ansion with white marble columns and little patios under all the windows, LSU flags line both sides of the sidewalk and a huge LSU banner hangs between the marble columns. "Thanks for the house God," Nick says. "But let me ask you a question; I get this little two-bedroom house with a faded banner and Miles gets a mansion with LSU banners and LSU flags flying all over the place, why is that?" God looks at him seriously for a moment, then says, "Nick, that's not Miles' house; That's mine.:usaflagwa

    Sorry, but that story has been told with darn near every coach and school in the country over the past several years.

    That is really a Coach K complaining to St Peter about Dean's house story. But it works in your version, too.

    It's been around the block a few times, but any shot at Saban makes me chuckle.

    Yea, that was the first version I heard. I also remember the Fullmer/Old Ball Coach version; the Fullmer/Saban version; and I'm sure there are many others.
    Still enjoy it.

    Up until last week, there was a version where Paterno lived in the big house on the hill. Up until last week.
