Newsflash: Nick Saban is not a good dude

Former Miami Dolphins fullback & current NFL Network Analyst Heath Evans joined the Jorge Sedano Show - 790 The Ticket on Wednesday morning and told an incredible story of then coach Nick Saban walking over a convulsing Jeno James (OL) on the first day of two-a-day practices in July of 2005.

“The first day of two-a-days. We had about a three-hour-plus practice in the morning in that South Florida sun. You guys know what it’s like down there in late July, early August. And then that night we had another practice under the lights, if I recall I think it was about from 6 to 9.

Jeno James, our best offensive lineman at the time, comes in and collapses after practice, uh, vomiting all kinds of stuff that would make a billygoat puke, eyes rolled in the back of his head. Myself, about four other lineman are trying to carry him from the locker room, to the training room.

Obviously it’s a moment of panic, everyone, you know, we don’t know if this guy’s, you know, gonna die, I mean, the whole deal. But he’s so big and sweaty and heavy that we actually have to set him down in the hallway between the locker room and the training room.

Nick Saban literally just starts walking in, steps over Jeno James convulsing, doesn’t say a word, doesn’t try to help, goes upstairs, I don’t know what he does. But then obviously they get Jeno trauma-offed to the hospital.
Saban calls a team meeting about 10:30 that night, comes down and says, ‘You know, the captain of the ship can never show fear or indecision, we’ve always gotta have an answer, and so I had to go upstairs, that’s why I walked over Geno like that, I had to collect my thoughts and decide what’s best for our team.’

And I’m thinking to myself, I think along with Jason Taylor and Zach Thomas and Yeremiah Bell and all these other guys going, ‘Did he, does he really believe what he’s just saying?’ He showed no human emotion for one of his best players. He literally stepped over him when four or five grown men are trying to carry Jeno to the training room.

And at that point honestly, you know, I was only there, you know, for seven weeks of that football season before he cut me, um, and let me say this – that was the best thing that ever happened to my career, because obviously A) they had to pay me, and B) Bill Belichick picked me up and I learned more football than I ever thought I’d know – but that deciding moment kind of right there of how Nick Saban handled that, I think it always showed the team that ultimately he doesn’t really care about any of us players.”

Tony Sparano House For Sale

I have confirmed Dolphins Head Coach Tony Sparano has put his house in Davie up for sale this week. Asking price $1.5 million.

The house was originally put on the market back in January and then taken off.

For what it's worth, Sparano says, he and his wife, are "empty nesters." Their youngest child is now a freshman in college. So, they felt it was time to downsize.

For more on the Dolphins tune into 790 The Ticket.

Wanna feel better? Here's Nick Saban getting a ticket

Saban parked his car and did pay the meter. The meter maid must have been a Dolphin or Auburn fan.

HEAT: Chris Bosh takes on Skip Bayless

ESPN’s Skip Bayless is infamous for making outlandish commments about athletes on his show, "First Take."

Chris Bosh is one of many athletes to feel the HEAT from Bayless on his TV show. Bayless referred to Bosh as “Bosh Spice” throughout the season.

Bosh joined Skip on ESPN today to chat about the nickname:

I felt Bosh disarmed him pretty quickly.

 

 

Here are Bosh, Bayless and the First Take Crew discussing who the best player in the NBA is:
