Rob Ezell's Saban Impression

[Dallas4Bama]

CNS: Hey buddy, what are you selling today?

Ezell: Coach, nothing much, just trying to stretch so I can have a good practice.

CNS: I saw your bit on espn the other night. Here is the right way to do it :biggrin:

Narrator (I will leave out the words, but use your imagination) :biggrin:

CNS: Okay when we are all done practicing, you could join us after you run some, I don't see you being a comic now

Ezell: Yes sir.


Honestly, I really didn't like it. He should not have done this on camera especially since he is still on the team and to me it should be kept in the locker room, not for public viewing like last night. Being funny and making folks laugh is one thing, but when the person being mocked is the head coach, well I think that went a little out of bounds.

Only an insecure person would get upset by someone imitating them. CNS is by no means an insecure man. Listening to coach on espn radio he talked about how he was glad Ezell did it and was so funny. He talked about how in a family people can tease each other and share those kinds of moments. He also said that a locker room needs comic relief at times. I'm sure those boys know when to get straightened up. You won't see them joking around in a team meeting. Who was it that said "coach would take a bullet for you"? Those guys know coach loves em and they have plenty of respect for him.

If Coach didn't want it on the TV, it wouldn't have been on the TV.

He should have had his hat on and thrown it down.

Sidenote: You can tell why are DBs are so good.

You can be sure that CNS had some input into what they showed and what they didn't!

Right on. Some of them also remark about his "shortness." Mt Cody, I think did that. Coach Saban does not seem to mind a little humor. They know who the boss is and they know when the auto door button is pushed, too.

I don't mind the humor, but not in front of the cameras. This stuff should have been kept behind closed doors. I am a party pooper :biggrin: There's always one in every crowd.

Technically, that was reality TV too last night. But, yeah, that was pretty funny.

No, that was a documentary.

Reality TV :television programs that present real people in live, though often deliberately manufactured, situations and monitor their emotions and behavior.

Documentary: a movie or TV program presenting facts and information, especially about a political, historical, or social issue

That was the funniest thing i have seen in a while (dont watch too much tv, and laughing at myself only goes so far). When i saw it, I hollered.

I have a friend that is LSU fan and he has "The Mad Hatter" down to an art. It is so funny. He even looks like him. "I promise ya"

I knew someone would take it too seriously.

Are you really not understanding what happened? Coach Saban TOLD ESPN to go watch Ezell's impersonation, hence, why it wasn't behind closed doors. What are you not understanding? Coach told ESPN to go film it. I don't understand what you're missing.

 

[Bamabuzzard]

I was freakin' laughing 'til my side hurt. That was classic and you could tell CNS
had no problem with it and seemed to actually like it. Good night that was funny. Ezelle will not have a problem finding employment. If you don't think for one minute someone from a media outlet hasn't already targeted him you're nuts. That kid has got personality and moxy. He won't have any problem finding a job.

I'm just sure glad it wasn't hidden - cause as many have said, that is the funniest thing i have seen in a while! Man he has got Saban DOWN! LOL

i kept hearing about this impression, and i wanted to see it!!! and it lived up to the hype!

on the Scott Van Pelt show SVP asked Saban if the kid got scared when Saban walked in and saw him doing the impression - Saban said no he didn't think he was too concerned, and talked about him being cocky. Obviously Ezell is great to have in a locker room.

Ezell asking Trent a question: thanks trent, that didn't answer my question at all (something like that )

 

[Maudiemae]

Does that kid remind anyone else of Tom Cruise?

 

[tidehawk]

That's what she said.

:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

Now THAT'S funny!

:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

Now THAT'S funny!

Oh, was that suppose to be a joke? I have always been slow when it comes to jokes :redface:.

IMHO...Ezell's Saban Impression was just one highlight in the best show I've seen on TV in a long time. Great job by all involved in this All Access show. Makes me proud to be a "crazy Bama fan".

 

[Bamabelle in ga]

Loved every minute of the show!
Towards the end of the show when the cameras were at fan day, what was said about Les Miles? I believe someone asked, "Where was the coach?" and a player asked what coach..... the fan said Saban. And the player jokingly said..."that was Les Miles!" Not sure if I got it right. Did anyone else hear this?
