OT: Nick Saban press conference at 2 pm tomorrow
Per CollegeFootballTalk https://twitter.com/#!/CFTalk
There was no reason stated for the press conference, scheduled for 2pm Thursday.
Anyone have any guesses?
Going to the Dolphins perhaps.
Figured it affects us somewhat, being that it is our opening game next year.
EDIT: Now they are saying it might just be announcing which players are going to the draft and which are staying. That's not as exciting as I wanted it to be.

According to ESPN radio the press conference is concerning Juniors declaring.
January 11th, 2012 at 10:04 PM ^
Hopefully all of them.
January 11th, 2012 at 6:01 PM ^
Please be going back to the pros (crosses fingers)
January 11th, 2012 at 6:01 PM ^
I mean, his legend would be completely solidified if he went to South Bend right?
Winning 3 titles isn't enough... he needs to do it while handcuffed...
Notre Dame Fans are stoopid.
January 11th, 2012 at 6:02 PM ^
He's going to ND!!!!!11!!!one!!!!!
Seriously though, could this be to announce what players plan on leaving/staying? I don't see him going pro, especially with 0 rumblings about it. Although now would be the time to do so, after winning another NC.
January 11th, 2012 at 6:01 PM ^
Either the hiring of an O.C. or juniors declaring for the NFL.
January 11th, 2012 at 6:37 PM ^
Rumor is that Brian Schottenheimer will be announced new OC.
As an embarrassing aside, I am a die-hard NY Jets fans. Brian Schottenheimer is a walking disaster. His potential hiring at Bammer is a serious downgrade for them, IMO.

Phins fan, it really was awesome that we knocked the J-E-T-S from the playoffs.
i really do not see any humor in making any comments about saban going back to the Phins.
January 11th, 2012 at 6:09 PM ^
for $2.3 million/yr.
January 11th, 2012 at 6:11 PM ^
He'll be returning to his alma mater, The University of Hell.
January 11th, 2012 at 6:17 PM ^
"Twitter party's over: Alabama confirms Saban's presser is to announce Tide players who are staying/leaving early for NFL."
Per the CFTalk twitter feed. I was hoping for perhaps a trade for Les Miles which sent Saban back to his dream job.

Someone check flighttracker for South Bend!

The only way for Satan to redeem himself is to go to Jesus U - This is the basic synopsis of Paradise regained - life imitating art baby!
January 11th, 2012 at 7:05 PM ^
Announcing the abolishment of the football program so they dont have to face the wrath of Michigan in next year's season opener?2
January 11th, 2012 at 7:18 PM ^
He's making a formal announcement that he will be taking his talents to Hell. Satan offered him a lucrative 10,000 year contract to be his recruiting coordinator.
January 11th, 2012 at 7:19 PM ^
He's apologizing for oversigning
January 11th, 2012 at 7:32 PM ^
He's probably announcing which of his bench players suffered career-ending injuries on Bourbon Street and are voluntarily giving up their scholarships to make way for his incoming class.
Roll Tide.
January 11th, 2012 at 8:27 PM ^
is that Satan is stepping down "to spend more time with his family," and Saban will be replacing him.
January 11th, 2012 at 8:50 PM ^
actually could be interesting which players go to the NFL
January 11th, 2012 at 9:34 PM ^
Hopefully it's a long press conference because so many are leaving.
January 11th, 2012 at 9:42 PM ^
He'll also announce which players are suddenly unableto play football ever again and will, regrettably, be issued Medical Hardships so that there will be room..dah I mean, opportunities, for other young players to receive scholarships.
January 11th, 2012 at 9:53 PM ^
A buddy of mine is huge Bama fan. He said that his people in the know told him that Saban is going to retire. Appearantly he is afraid of Hoke and his finger point of doom.
January 11th, 2012 at 10:40 PM ^
Saban is going to reproduce by binary fission in front of a live media audience. His clone will then proceed to Notre Dame to lead them back to the promised land. Oh, wait . . .
January 11th, 2012 at 10:44 PM ^
He is announcing that he is changing his name to Osaban Been-Lyin'
January 11th, 2012 at 11:07 PM ^
He's going to announce that he's going to have the most boring press conference ever.
January 12th, 2012 at 12:15 AM ^
Saban has split the atom. Earthly fission, away from the nuclear furnace of a star, is now possible thanks to his scientific genius.
