Vandy Coach James Franklin Calls Nick Saban "Nicky Satan"
By: Steven Lassan | 1/30/13, 2:56 PM EST
With college football’s national signing day coming up next week, coaches are hitting the recruiting trail in full force. And it’s no surprise every coach is doing whatever they can to win every prospect battle. The war that is recruiting is magnified in the SEC, where programs are going head-to-head for several big-name prospects.
Vanderbilt coach James Franklin made a stop in Macon, Ga. for a high school football banquet and took a small jab at Alabama, calling head coach Nick Saban “Nicky Satan.”
You can’t blame Franklin for pumping up his program after the last two years, especially since he follows up his “Nicky Satan” comments by mentioning how he plans to outwork him.
Needless to say, this is a perfect example of life in the SEC.
Who knows, maybe it'll inspire a movie?
