New Orleans Saints and LSU insider Mike Detillier joins the show on the Farm Bureau guest line talking about Nick Saban and Saints memories live in the BankPlus Studio. Mike describes what it was like covering Nick Saban at LSU and how he was able to keep the best players in the state. Mike talks about how he learned to staff and LSU fans were afraid he would build Alabama into the program that he did. Mike was surprised that Saban announced his retirement when he did but he thinks Kalen Deboer has the ability to keep the train rolling. Bo asks Mike about his personality while he covered the head coach and he tells a story about Saban snapping back on a question about a player's time. Mike says that Nick Saban recruited leaders over players and he was a driving force in the locker room. Saban would ask coaches about the ability of a player to be coached rather than his raw talent. Bo asks Mike who Nick Saban leaned on during his time at LSU and he talks about the effect Will Muschamp, Jimbo Fisher and Pete Dinkens had on the legendary head coach. Mike talks about what is happening with the Saints and who the next offensive coordinator could be. Mike thinks that all of the talk around Jon Gruden isn't without validity and he says New Orleans could have their next offensive coordinator.
