Nick Saban issues message to Alabama residents urging them to stay home
The COVID-19 outbreak continues to dominate global news, and now there is increasing concern that the 2020 college football season could be in jeopardy.
Thus, many college football coaches are working with state leaders to urge citizens to take the Coronavirus seriously and stay inside.
The latest college coach to issue a message is Alabama’s Nick Saban. You can see him speak in the video below, posted on Alabama Football’s Twitter account:

Let’s beat this thing so we can get back to sports and not have to worry about contracting a serious disease.
Coaches like Ed Orgeron and Nick Saban are taking it seriously, so the rest of us should too.
LOL I can just imagine the fine folks of alabama struggling to comprehend this. On one hand lord trump has said its a democratic hoax and to keep working because its not that bad. On the other hand, the actual lord and savior Saban himself is saying to stay home. Must be a tough choice. Let me help with that, its probably the guy who actually has a college education.
Bringing politics into this and lying about what has and is happening is just pathetic.
Willybob demonstrates just how powerful the liberal Media is. They have the ability to control the message like no other. Professional Journalism is dead.
It’s been dead. Cable news saw to that.
Speak for yourself, sir. When I want informed epidemiological and geopolitical analysis, I come to a college sports blog for a guy named “willybob” to set the record straight.
Willybob…this site is about Football, SEC Football. Obviously you clicked on the wrong site…to spew your political rhetoric. There are sites that are devoted to politics…I suggest that you find one. This is NOT the place.
Get lost moron.
Little Willy, I bet educated South Carolina fans are real proud of your posting here. Real proud.
Like everyone had said, including honest libs, no one could have seen this coming. It has evolved and exploded. The President has taken proper action which has been criticized by his opponents.
Maybe you would like jokester Joe to run things?
If trump didnt disband the National Security Council’s global health security office then this probably wouldnt be nearly as bad for America. So no he actually has not taken proper action, I would say he did the exact opposite. What has he done proper anyway? He just said today to keep working while experts are advising to stay home. Who do you think knows more? But dont worry i’m sure trump will do everything to bail out the companies who buy back stock and pay execs huge bonuses while normal joes like you and me suffer.
More talking points from the liberal media. Swell. No doubt that our government was late to the party with testing and supplies. That was a huge mistake. But, when Trump banned incoming flights from China, the liberal media said that was an overreaction. It clearly wasn’t. We have certainly made mistakes, but now is not the time to look back and try and place blame. It’s time to look forward and try and find the best way to get through this. Your type doesn’t care about that. Y’all just want to make the president look bad. That’s a sad testimony.
Get your facts straight moron, he didn’t “disband the National Security Council’s global health security office.” You are a liar, it didn’t happen! Quit listening to the liberal taking heads putting out disinformation and outright lies.
Get him Snapshot!
You’re pathetic.
This was not the first virus outbreak in world history. China had there 1st case in November. Because the world did not learn their lesson from the Corona outbreak SARS ten years ago. In the USA the Senate could have decreed testing of all international travelers (they didn’t). In the House they could have decreed the development of test kits as soon as the virus was identified and that was almost immediately. The executive branch could have done this also and more. Even the supreme court could have heard a case against government for not protecting the constitutional responsibility of government to the people. A private USA corporation reacted quickly and even developed two drugs that had some effectiveness, sending the formula to China in late January i think.
So no, sorry gentlemen, our government couldn’t call a play and run it before the play clock ran out. Don’t let me read anyone writing “this is a party problem”, no, it’s a government problem, they are absolutely convinced we are unimportant and their only job is to stay in office and keep lining their pockets. We need term limits and laws that promote independent candidates.
I usually don’t agree with anything you post but this comment gets a thumbs up from me.
I didn’t read his comment, but this is quite a breakthrough. Glad COVID can bring us together.
This would have been the perfect reason to use the Sabanism of all Sabanisms. He could have said “trust the process” and followed that with all the social distancing guidelines that have been issued. Seems like a missed opportunity to make it not only more memorable but more personalized and less…robotic.
If people won’t listen to the president or their local officials call in the goat to get it done.
I usually don’t listen to people that lie daily. Nor do I prefer to listen to someone that said, “I knew it was a pandemic before it was a pandemic!” No one here in NYC is going back to work around Easter. For those of you that live in the south where there are maybe 50 cases statewide, bless your little heart..
So uninformed. Tell us which Southern state has only 50 cases? Quit watching the MSM. They lie to you.
The MSM doesn’t have to lie to me. I watch that idiot at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave lie every day. The “50” was a sarcastic statement. The MSM didn’t tell me there would be zero cases, your idiot of a President did.
He’s your president too, idiot, and he never said that.
Stick to winning National Championships, playing great football and not defending the words everyone in America watched that idiot say on Live Television. If one more person has to tell you, “Umm yeah he did say, “right now we have 15 and that number will go down to zero.” Change your profile name to IDIOT.
Great. You’re one of the morons trying to talk politics on a sports site. That’s just dumb, and certainly not wanted by anyone here. Doesn’t MSNBC have a chat spot where you can talk to your fellow idiots?
Usually when one is made to look like a fool, they result to name calling..Typical of Trump followers..But anyhoo..Back to sports..How is Mike the Tiger? Has Coach Pelini introduced his cat to him yet?
I’m not a Trump supporter. I do think that people that bring up politics on a sports site are out of place. I’m just hopeful the country comes together, we get through this disaster, and life can return somewhat back to normal. We are quite a ways from that.
So you told him to change is name to Idiot because he made you look like a fool?
I believe we can. Apologies if I offended you. I’m still a CU Buff for life!
Y’all should watch Tiger King on Netflix. Joe Exotic would have made a good LSU fan.
Cute how all the Socialist Democrat trolls love to infest sites that allow public commentary since that’s not allowed by their DNC controlled media out of fear that someone may say something that’s not in accord with their party line. Get ready for 4 more years of President Trump, b*tches.
Make sure you go to church Easter Sunday buddy!
Churches will probably still be closed, but people should be watching online. I recommend you check out COE22 sermons. The pastor is great. No politics and no hypocritical nonsense.
Good stuff.. Anyhoo..Serious question.. When I went to Tiger Stadium a few years ago and went to Mike (V)the Tiger’s jungle, I noticed they had the history of every Mike. When the Bengal retires, where do they send him? He doesn’t go back to the wild does he? Do they let him mate and one of his cubs are lined up to be the next Mascot?
None of the Tigers can make it in the wild. I’ve not heard about any mating. The Mikes have all been rescues. I think LSU keeps care of them once they are too old or frail to continue. They have a very good vet school.
Wow, politics and sports seem like they are basically the same thing these days. Just replace conservative and liberal with Florida and Georgia and you kinda get the same style of arguments.
You guys wanna do Mississippi state (global warming is real) and ole miss (global warming is false news) next?
Don’t Nick have some Aflac to sell or something?
Does the Arky coach need some motorcycle insurance? LMAO
