It took a global pandemic for Nick Saban to start using email

[Nitt1300]

The coronavirus pandemic has brought upon a major change for Alabama head coach Nick Saban.

The 68-year-old Saban revealed in an interview with ESPN that he now uses email. That’s right. Over his illustrious coaching career that has included six national championships, Saban has never used an email account — until now.

“I’ve come a long way,” Saban said with a smile.

Of course he never used email, one less way to catch them at shady stuff. I kid, I kid...maybe.

Their was a photo of Joe on a Skype call in his office during the offseason - he was talking to a recruit and the recruit's family.

Even on Skype it was shirt/tie/sports coat. Miss the old guy.

One of the downsides of e-mail is that it allows others to more easily get in touch with you. Discovered early on that wasn't necessarily a good thing.

Also leaves an audit trail that is discoverable.

Word is he's got a pay phone booth on the street outside his office. He covers his mouth when on calls.

there you go!!! the only thing you should do via email is set up your golf game etc, otherwise, just say we need to talk, so call me.

My uncle manages multiple large condo complexes. At all of them he instituted that any complaints have to be officially submitted in writing on a particular form that whenever anybody emails him, he sends the form to them. The form has to be mailed to the office or dropped off by hand, no email copies accepted. The owner then has to schedule a meeting with him to review the complaint. Complaints have dropped by 90% at all of the complexes. He says email is the worst thing every in most cases as people (especially at complexes with mainly retired people) can just sit at their computur and literally had some people sending him 3 or 4 complaints per day for weeks on end. 99% of them being just nuisance complaints. With having to fill out forms and delivering them and scheduling a meeting, people then have to be really serious about it such that most everything goes away. He did say that when somebody sends something in that is a real issue, he will go to their condo and talk with them directly to try and figure it out.

Neither Saban nor his coaches indulge in shady

he has special consultants to handle shady and others to do hanky and panky
