Thompson's move was "blessed" by Saban
« on: January 14, 2015, 03:10:46 PM »
Are you shitting me?  Those inbred fucks ACTUALLY believe this kind of shit?

This is how the Thompson hire went down according to Bama's bobo honker at 24/7

First, it is important to note that this is "just business." It's hard for fans to separate being a fan and the business side of sports, but this is just a simple case of of the business side of sports.

We promised you the inside scoop on this developing story, so we will share with you what we can.

*** Multiple sources tell us that shortly after the Ohio State game in New Orleans, Nick Saban and Lance Thompson had a one-on-one meeting where Saban suggested that it would be good with Lance to "start looking for other opportunities." This is the way most of these situations go down.

*** Thompson and Saban discussed the possibilities of both staying and leaving -- there were no decisions made, but obviously Saban strongly made his point for Thompson to begin making some calls.

*** Thompson immediately received strong interest from several college and NFL teams, including Auburn. Remember, coaching is a business and all of these staffs are intertwined from previous relationships. Thompson was fairly close with several coaches on the Auburn staff, including Muschamp and Malzahn.

*** After the semifinal game, the entire staff went there separate ways and were scheduled to meet this week. Sources tell us that Thompson and Saban were scheduled to sit down once everyone returned.

*** On Schedule, Saban and Thompson had their meeting this week and nothing had changed. Sources tell us that Thompson expressed his strong interest to stay at Alabama, but Saban thought it was best for him to move on in another direction.

*** Sources tell us that Thompson told Saban that Auburn was his top choice and Saban blessed the move to Auburn -- he didn't have any problems with Thompson moving to Alabama's SEC West rival.

*** According to multiple sources, the meeting with Saban and Thompson ended extremely well and both sides have zero issues with each other -- it's just business. Saban and Thompson have a long, long history working together and it would not surprise us if they work together again in the future.

Who knows? Doesn't matter to me how it went down. It's The Guster's and Will's asses on the line so their decision.

However, I srsly doubt it went down as explained or that Bama made a push to keep him.

Something's a little too fishy here.

Saban didn't want Thompson and Thompson's first choice was Auburn, and Auburn just so happened to want Thompson.  Saban is okay with this and blesses the decision.  Alabama's beat writers are hinting they could work together again in the future.

Hmmm...

By golly, I think you've got it.

This guy is the #1 recruiter nationally, has put a lot of LB's in the NFL....and they tell him to leave? Not buying it. In case they didn't notice, their DL was a big issue against Ohio State and Auburn - not Thompson.

Multiple sources tell us? Give me a break. Reveal em or shutup. How would anyone know that convo took place? They wouldn't.

I don't know man. It's not just one source. It's multiple. I wouldn't have believed it about the rampant cross dressing among xer's if it were just one source. But I've heard it from multiple ones. So, where there is smoke, you know.

Reading a couple of articles on Corch Thompson and obviously, one of his big strengths is how well he recruits.  But, I found this little tidbit in one of the articles.

"His Alabama recruits included Julio Jones, A.J. McCarron, Mark Barron, D.J. Fluker and Trent Richardson, according to ESPN".

I'ma axe you to take off the orange and blue glasses first.  Then, I'ma leave that here for a while and let it soak in.

Is your point that 80 percent of his recruits are black? He's racist?

It's not 80%.  Mark Barron is a full blooded Cherokee Indian.
