Remember, Napier isn't Nick Saban, he only worked for him. Why make enemies when friends are so much better?
    That’s not how we do things any more around here Don

    Yep. That one was easy to find. I’d like to see the interviews with the coordinators anyone know where to find those?

    I know the press would like to have been able to speak to the QB’s. I would have liked to hear their comments as well. I bet were a clear cut starter the situation, he may have been available. Coach likely did not want to add pressure to the two main guys and not have the risk of one saying something which could be interpreted in a way he would not prefer.

    I’ll take more Ws and less interviews any day of the week.

    What world altering thing is a player going to say anyway? Even a coach for that matter?

    Let them prepare for their season and stop whining.

    Yeah I agree with you, either one of them could have slipped up and said something that the coaches don’t want everyone to know.

    When the man said he would deploy the Saban model, he wasn't kidding.

    Exactly. Those interviews are always just full of coach speak. I don't even watch or listen to them anymore. Too predictable. If anyone goes off-script I'll find it here 🤗

    Has he never seen a Nick Saban interview? Can't get any worse than that. I'll take the W's, too.

    How many media members cover a Cajun presser? 2 newspapers, 2 TV stations, a few radio stations and a blogger? If Napier and staff don't want to divulge anything, just cancel them and have your SID office release a daily practice report. That is not how I think a head coach should run a program starving for attention and relevance, but we are all in on the Saban way.
