If Nick Saban ran as a Democrat against Tommy Tuberville who would win?

1. Ohio State. nt

3. I hated Nick Saban for the way he left the Dolphins until this

BTW I read Jerry West's autobiography. He wrote about how his friends at the Belleair Country Club gave him the business for supporting President Obama.

5. I guess I have to like him. :).

6. That endorsement and ad changed everything for me.

7. Yes. I didn't realize this about Sabin. nt

12. Nope, Sarkesian is going to the Saban's school for rehabilitation of Coaches

And he's seeming to be driving himself up as Saban's replacement. Sark has been looking much better than he did at USC/UW.
(I'm from a PAC-12 family married to a Bama alum, so I've seen the evolution.
Also, two things: Saban is pushing 70; Miss Terri won't let him risk his health around that much GOP scum. She already limits his exposure around the Boosters after his bout with COVID earlier this year. And - he grew up with a strong sense of family and tradition; being from West Virginia, he is more likely to run to replace Joe Machine as a Democrat, which all Laz's Tuscaloosa relatives suspect he is, since he has a strict "no politics, no evangelism, only professionalism" component to his process.

Even though the Dolphin fans hate him for realizing he was a much better NCAA coach than NFL coach and leaving for the Tide.

15. Joe Namath went to Alabama and he seems like a liberal guy.

I know he stood up for his Black teammates when he was with the Jets and defended Kap.

2. 1950s style racism

4. He was better in his cameo in "The Blind Side" then Tuberville

So...

Ohio State.

8. He has also win 6 National Championships. Tuberville has won 0

9. Another excellent point!

[marble falls]

10. Man O' War would have won. He was just the best runner of all times.

11. I have to think that putting the cookie jar next to Tommy

may lead to a hand reaching into it. I also hope Biden's DOJ is ready for that moment.

[House of Roberts]

13. That all depends. For a political office?

If Saban won, he'd have to leave the head coaching job at Alabama. None of the Alabama fans would vote for that, but all the Auburn fans would.

14. Nick Saban is just as dumb as Tuberville. He's just a better coach.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

16. He's smart enough to be a Democrat.

17. Nick Saban is a smart guy, if you hav ever paid attention to him.

I love it when Bama gets beat, but Saban runs a clean program. Not evebn Gohmert is a dumb as Tuberville.

[tavernier]

18. I don't know who either one is

So take into consideration that there are other people like me out there, before you run a sports person as a political candidate.

22. Tuberville won.

Maybe you should broaden your horizons.

[TuskMoar]

19. Wow.... I had no idea

Is Saban really a democrat, or did he just endorse a childhood friend? I would think that a high profile person like him in a state like Alabama would make a difference. I firmly believe that the democratic party is really making a mistake by giving up on the South.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

20. He endosred a Democrat. That's marking a spot imho.

21. Tommy Tuberville would win.

Alabama is full of racists.
