One quip.
“From July 28th to the end of the season we get 2 days off. That’s Christmas Eve and Christmas. Last year my phone rang on Christmas Day and it was “Coach”. He said he wanted us to come in to look at some film, he was ‘uneasy’. Of course you say yes. I asked what he had been doing on his day off and Saban said he watched film on 12 Sophomores Christmas Eve. Now they needed to look at game films today.....” They did.
