Napier humbled to compete against mentor Nick Saban

[NewsCopy]

He is the student about to square off with his guru, the one who quotes the famed Alabama coach for whom he used to work and goes about his new job with a blueprint borrowed from the architect.

He is Billy Napier, and he toiled for four seasons as an assistant under Nick Saban in Tuscaloosa — five if the season he spent there as an analyst is counted.

____es me off that the Advertiser uses ULL in the top of the screen title.

It will most certainly be a humbling experience. Alabama would embarrass 96% of D1 teams and very well may win another National Championship, so let’s not get too down if it’s really bad.

Hopefully, I forget it's am 11 am kickoff and check the score many hours later

I want players and coaches that expect to win every time out. I don’t care what the circumstances or who the opponent might be.

Billy needs to punch that little runt in the mouth. That would be a good start. He really needs to follow Damon Mason's lead.

BTW, I'm a Saban fan, but not this week.

Nothing but respect for Saban and his program.
However, I want people in our locker room that expect to win. At the end of the day, it’s still 4 quarters on a football field. Anything can happen.

50% of this game is 100% mental.

Aren’t many Damon Masons left in this day and age, unfortunately.

Thought this was a very nicely done article.

The Advertiser is a joke... everyone knows that.
