Nick Saban Does Not Give One Single Fuck About The Solar Eclipse

AL.comThe great eclipse of 2017 has already been spoiled for the Alabama football coach. His daily morning ritual gave away the ending of Monday’s rare event.

“I watch the Weather Channel every day,” Saban said after Saturday’s scrimmage in Bryant-Denny Stadium. “They’re already saying what it’s going to look like in every city in America. So, what’s going to be significant? Watch the Weather Channel and you’ll see what it’s going to be like in Portland, Oregon.”

Been a long offseason, almost forgot how much I love Nick Saban.  Hey Coach how do you feel about the big eclipse coming tomorrow?  Everyone’s talking about it, pretty fascinating stuff, what are you gonna do for it, enjoy it with your family?

Already seen a computer simulated graphic of it on the Weather Channel.   Same shit.  Don’t care.  Ask me what defensive scheme the eclipse is going to run against us in the two minute drill in a conference game and maybe I’ll give a shit.

Leave it to Coach Saban to watch film on a fucking solar eclipse.

Asked if the team has any plans for viewing the event, Saban shrugged.

“We’ll set it up so if the players want to go out there and get some sunglasses, I guess they can,” Saban said. “That’s not something that I’m really that focused on right now.”

After noting his lake house in Clayton, Ga., was in the path of totality, Saban circled back to how his team should view the eclipse.

“Tell them to watch it on TV,” he said. “Maybe we should have a team meeting about how we want to do this. I haven’t thought about it.”

I love this man.
