Alabama Coach, Nick Saban, On the Kent State Shootings

Nick was a freshman at Kent State when the God-awful shootings took place over 40 years ago. You can't be from Ohio (or the surrounding area) and not carry the memory of the shootings with you.

I'd never seen anybody shot before. Even though I didn't see them shot, I saw them after they were shot. It's a horrible thing.There's not a May 4 that goes by that I don't think about it -- really think about it. Forty years seems like a long time. But it doesn't seem that long to me.

Coach Saban and his championship Alabama team will be meeting his old alma-mater in Alabama's first regular season game this weekend.

ROLL TIDE!
