More shit Nick Saban doesn’t have time for: doing any vetting on hiring Jeremy Pruitt.
“Didn’t interview anybody. Didn’t talk to anybody. Just hired the guy. He worked here for six years. Maybe I should have called some people to find out how good he was, what he could do well and get some kind of recommendation on him, but (I didn’t need to).”
Makes you wonder how much thought he put into signing Jonathan Taylor.
As a side note, even Saban knows what Kirby Smart’s decision to coach ‘Bama in the playoffs means for his new gig.
“It speaks volumes for Kirby, the character he has to want to come back and finish, when it may not be the most advantageous thing for him and his future, to do right by the players and finish for the guys who have done well for him,” Saban said. [Emphasis added.]
That’s nice.
