I was so wrong about Coach Saban when he was at LSU. He always has his priorities right. What a classy guy.

This is the kind of stuff that rarely makes the national sporting news. I love this and I get so tired of hearing the bad things of the sports we love so much. There is a lot of good out there. Thanks for sharing.

That is a great letter. I run an assisted living facility and had a family member of one of my residents that passed away bring me a letter from Coach Bryant that he had written to her husband that coached high school football and was a legend in Western KY. It was when Bear was considering retirement and this particular coach wrote to him and Bear responded with a very personal well written letter that obviously took some time. Its one of my favorite things hanging in my office because its from the Bear and that the family thought enough of me to give it to me after their mother passed away. Just thought it was very cool and what a simple letter can do for people.

Can you share the letter? I'd love to read it.

Way to go coach. I'm sure all the young men on his team appreciate your letter.

I appreciate the effort, brother, but the image didn't post on my laptop or my phone.
