It was a matter of time before a media member introduced the rumor that Nick Saban wants to return to coaching. Greg McElroy did the honors this week, saying that someone "in the know" told him that Saban will coach again. McElroy later denounced the rumor he started. By then, it was too late. The rumor had gained oxygen and made the rounds at SEC media days. Never mind the veracity of this speculation. On today's episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer and John Adams react to the rumor McElroy sparked – that Saban wants to coach again. Neither host gives much credence to the idea of Saban returning to college coaching. They suggest that, if he did return, Alabama would not be the likeliest landing spot. Adams also considers this hypothetical: If Saban and Urban Meyer returned to college coaching, which would fare better? Later in the episode, the hosts respond to Texas being named the overwhelming favorite in the USA TODAY Network's predicted order of finish for the SEC, and Toppmeyer points to a few teams that were underrated in the voting.
Ben Maller talks about the chances that Nick Saban returns to the football sidelines, where are some potential college landing spots for Saban, which NFL job makes the most sense for Saban, Maller to the Third Degree, and more!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This may truly be the new Golden Age of America as Trump claims it will be... for crying out loud, we even have the first American Pope! Meanwhile, Trump closes his first trade deal and the partner is the UK. It's true, Trump's team negotiates the deal and then Trump gets on the phone and makes it better before closing it. This is a great story. The Royals are apparently never losing another series again. They just drill the White Sox 10-0 on Thursday and everything is going right. NASCAR takes center stage at Kansas Speedway this weekend where last year's spring race may have been the greatest of all time. Trump asks Nick Saban and a really rich Texas Tech booster to save college athletics. Charles Barkley calls college sports a ruined cesspool and our song of the week is a great one for Mother's Day.
