Two practices. Two tar-and-feathered questions. Two Nick Saban rants.
So far this spring, the Alabama head coach has vented about why Alabama shouldn’t have to have a starting quarterback named even before spring practice begins and why Alabama isn’t deep at the running back position as the numbers there might mistakenly indicate.
So what will be the next question to boil Saban’s blood and invoke a sharp-tongued monologue? We’ve got an idea. Here then are the Top Ten Worst Questions To Ask Coach Saban During A Spring Press Conference:
10. Do you plan on wearing a suit to the A-Day game again this year?
9. How worried are you that there may be inclement weather, such as heavy rains, during this year’s A-Day game?
8. From what you’ve seen so far this spring, how does this current Alabama team compare to the LSU team that won the national championship in 2003?
7. How excited are you that Alabama is being ranked in the top five in some of the preseason rankings that have already come out?
6. We know it’s just the spring and the season hasn’t even started, but assuming Alabama and Florida both make it back to the SEC Championship Game next year, what do you plan to do to try and neutralize Tim Tebow?
5. We know you don’t like depth charts, but if you did like them, how would you rank the current group of running backs?
4. It might be too early to tell, but based on what you know right now, how soon do you think you’ll bring national championship No. 13 to Alabama?
3. Do you think you’ll ever invite Lance Thompson to come speak at the spring coaches’ clinic?
2. How happy are you now that Alabama is finally back among the nation’s elite programs?
1. Why don’t you ever wear a ball cap during games or practices? Mike Shula did.
