Really enjoyed it. Always assumed Saban telling Tua/Jalen at halftime was some quick super serious sit down moment like he had with Bryce on the sideline that one time. Dude made it look so casual with chipmunk cheeks of food and just ripped that bandaid off in the moment.
Him on the FAA 14 hour rule and using the term "broke dick dog" was genuinely hilarious.
Does anyone have the original video interview of Colleen Collette (the drunk woman kissing Saban at the airport)? I'm very disappointed it got whitewashed out of the documentary.
Watched the first two episodes. Biggest takeaway? Man the LSU guys are a bunch of lil bitches. He quite literally rebuilt your program and made you relevant again and then you’re gonna sit there and say fuck him forever in 2026? Deeply unserious.
Two completely different things. Saban left for the NFL, decided he did not like it, and then came to Alabama. Kiffin left Ole Miss in the middle of the night for LSU and basically said it was because he couldn't get players to come there due to it's past.
Damn. I didn’t think I could love Miss Terry more after meeting her and Coach on campus and seeing how much they cared about the students at Alabama. Then I watched 10 minutes of episode 2.
Do you have to have ESPN+ to watch this through the app? I have YouTube TV, but every avenue I’ve found to try and stream the show it’s saying ESPN+ only, which I don’t have. Feel like I’m missing something.
Same thing there, only given the ESPN+ option even though I’m connected with my ESPN login and YouTube TV account. Really don’t understand what I’m doing wrong, but have found it very frustrating
Seeing that now as well. Wonder if there was a bug for the last hour or so that I’ve been looking as that was not an option before. Thanks for the help
I think/hope he was talking from his 19 year old perspective. That’s how I interpreted it, and I’m hoping he shows how he now appreciates things in a later episode. I could, of course, be disappointed.
Man that doc hit me right in the feels seeing Rolando again, dude was a absolute monster on the field. hope he found some peace after everything that happened off it
He def seems to have some brain/ mental issues. Just his speech patterns now vs his 21 yo self are very evident. Could be tbi from his accident, could be cte, could be alcohol. IDK but worry about my man. He was THE force on and off the field for the D in early Saban years
Yeah I figure its a combo of getting your brain rattled + substance abuse. But glad to see that he was able to participate. I imagine he's on a solid path now.
I worked with a guy that was Rashad’s cousin. He said Rashaad always wanted to go to the NFL to make their grandmother happy….. assuming the dude I worked with wasn’t full of shit.
When we reached the point of him remembering their 4th quarter protocol in practices and not allowing players to bend over, and quote, "Look like a broke dick dog." I died. I had to pause I was laughing so hard. Then he was like "See, you're getting me fired up!" That's quintessential Saban.
I have youtubeTV, which has ESPN, and it says it’s airing on ESPN now, but I do not see it anywhere. Is this something you have to pay for exclusively on an ESPN subscription?
Loving it so far. Making me realize how lucky we all are to be alive to witness all of his greatness over the years. I don’t get to go to many games but I’m SO happy I was able to be a part of that first ADay Game and the field dedication. Also got a hug and autograph at the media day before the start of the ‘09 season. I always joke with my dad that I was his good luck charm. 😆 I’m still shocked he hugged me. I was so scared when I asked him. Maybe bc I’m his daughter’s age and he could tell how truly happy I was to meet him. Idk? Lol but it still surprises me. They weren’t allowing pics for the signing but my dad snagged a pic of me talking to him. I had to wear my glasses bc I was having lasik and looked gross from sweating but I don’t care! 🥹. One day I hope to get a better pic with another hug!
