Asking Nick Saban a question isn't easy

AL.com host Josh Snead set out to do the one thing that many a sports reporter fear; ask Nick Saban a press conference question.

[@jscottgp2011]

If he would've done the "ah, nothing", and left, I would've freaking died lol so good

[@Hunter87788]

Nick Saban wouldn't have been happy with that

Wait a minute. That’s the SEC shorts guy!

[@alexadams2230]

Yes sir! I think he worked there for a time

[@jeremylindsey2975]

Just don't ask hypothetical questions, ones about a game other than who he's preparing for, or a question designed to lure him into saying something so you can get a quote for your story (feuds, rankings, etc). If he thinks your question/story fits these categories or will draw his team's focus from the task at hand, then he's not gonna be a happy camper.

Imagine if he would’ve caught you talking while he was answering your question. He would’ve blown his stack

It's just a blast to watch nick just make puddles out of the media. I wonder how many have to go wipe themselves after asking a stupid question?

[@michaelmcparland7681]

I'd be scared to ask him a question too. Saban, Meyer, and Bob Stoops have to be the toughest 3 to ask questions in that forum.

[@LoyalTideFan]

LOL! I know exactly how you feel! Another good video, Josh. I enjoy them very much!

I'm waiting for lord Saban to write a book

[@georgetomas-uf4759]

there are some books about him but he has mentioned that they are not authorized by him, and that's what I want a book approved under his authority. Hail Lord Saban

[@bamasmurph]

He doesn't have time to write a book

[@maccolclough6337]

There’s one narrated by Daniel Tosh that I love. Just look up Tosh.O Saban.

[@lsusmuggler]

He wrote some claptrap after his 2003 LSU Natty.

[@gamecocksfootballfanzone2.424]

For some reason Lord Saban sounds too close to Lord Satan

[@richardbisca4709]

What a bizzare thing that a grown man can be so afraid to speak to another man because he's a good football coach

[@michaelmcparland7681]

Some people are just flat out intimidating and Saban is.

[@spencerhiginbotham7538]

Woman: Hey Nick, you wanna go out with me? Nick: When you ask me those kind of questions, it really pisses me off.

[@kingkong7617]

When a reporter ask Nick Saban a silly or dumb question, you will get a answer you probably won't like, but that is what you get when you ask a dumb question. Saban is plain spoken and he will answer a valid question but leave it at that!

[@enosbaltazar713]

Dude deadass my voice would crack if I spoke to him. Yes sir no sir

[@thelastjohnwayne]

You threw up a huge Softball Non controversial question and lived to tell the tale. But Coach just could not hear your scared soft little squeaky voice. You are a brave man.
