Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

The mods on the Georgia board were told that Bama’s AD Greg Byrne begged TRob to stay. No
This hurts, but good for him and UGA
Hopefully he doesn’t pull too much of our talent with him

Sounds more like he should be at Penn State.
Sounds like some homeboard shit.

Which one of you is this? 
I know you're kidding but I kind of believe you
He's deflecting.
Says the right things, we will see
He Dominated that press conference
On offense and on defense!
Just a guess from an outsider. If what was said earlier is true (rumors his wife is Ill), then I would guess Saban is really stepping away from things to he with her. That’s what I would do.
In that case these may just be statements that make everyone comfortable.
I think he had to make that statement right now to try and keep his new team together. If he frames it any other way, he’s immediately losing players. Time will tell how much he keeps Saban involved
Saban has said a couple times since he retired that no one is sick. I think he’s just being honest with himself acknowledging he can’t handle the grind anymore.
I mean why wouldn't you want unlimited access to the best that has ever done it? Saban is not going to do anything to cause issues with the team. But talk about sealing a deal on a recruiting visit than dinner with the GOAT.
Not a corch in waiting situation
Yea. It could go bad, but it could be a huge bonus too. Saban is out and did it on his own terms. So he might not interfere and just be happy to give some advice from time to time.
Which one of you is this?
There’s some gold in this thread today. Holy shit. Well done gents.
Tell me he's our new DC..... please sir
It’s a real possibility
Good one there
Tell us now your prediction of the next 3 years or so. Let's see your crystal ball
I agree. He could still be an ambassador for the school like Spurrier did. But Napier doesn't listen to SOS
Make the playoffs 2 of 3, but come up short. Undefeated against UGA and both UTs, but lose to the cocks by 20 each time
