More Saban/Massie drama

[bburger991]

**And yet, even more Bobby Massie tidbits. He was asked to give a good Nick Saban recruiting story, and he had a pretty good one to say the least. Bobby said he called Coach Saban the night before signing day to let him know that he was going to sign with Ole Miss. Bobby did not even inform the Ole Miss staff that he was going to be a Rebel until the night before signing day, per Bobby, but he did say, “I had a pretty good idea where I was going in December.”

Anyway, Bobby calls Nick and Coach Saban stops him before he tells where he is going and said this, “Bobby, do not even tell me where you are going, because if you are not going to Alabama I am turning you into the NCAA. You know you have a chance to start at Alabama at right tackle as a sophomore, and nobody would turn that down unless they did something illegal.”

Bobby was stunned. He said he just listened to Coach Saban rant and never said another word about it. He was offended to say the least. That is why he made such a scene at the press conference when he threw the Alabama hat on the ground and put on an Ole Miss hat.


Per Ole Miss's scout.com site, and straight out of Massie's mouth.

Saban is pure filth.

Oh junk - but to be fair - the Massie story all seems a bit odd - would not be the least surprised to see something illegal come of it.

And if Kiffin even allegedly did that, it would be on ESPN all day and all night.

Saban was having visions of a fluker/massie lineup. Glad the kid spoiled his party. Odds are pretty good that saban gets alabama put back on probation before he's done there.

Another quote from the article about that


**I asked him if he were ever leaning towards Alabama and he said, “no, they told me that D.J. Fluker was going to play left tackle, and I was going to play right tackle. And they did not think I would start to my sophomore season, so they were never close to signing me.”

Do you have a link to the article? Wouldn't mind reading it.

It's on Ole Misses scout site. A guy on another board was copy/pasting parts of the article. It's by Yancy Porter. Thats all I really know about it.
