I grew up in Bham close enough to hear Bama play at legion field. We couldn’t afford tickets so we would ride to airport hill with a radio to listen to Eli Gold call the game. We could hear the crowd roar and listen to Eli’s call. He will forever be a Bama legend!
“There are two pains in life. There is the pain of discipline and the pain of disappointment. If you can handle the pain of discipline, then you’ll never have to deal with the pain of disappointment.”

Hall of Fame player and person. Always wanted the best for his players and developed them into star athletes and humans.
This is a sad day for CFB.
In shock and trying to process what’s happening.. but the joy Coach Saban brought me the last 17 years is priceless. I’m heartbroken but also honored to have gotten to witness every snap, win, loss, heartbreak and celebration during the greatest run in cfb history! #RollTide
