Jumbo Package: Mike Locksley assured that Saban wasn’t calling him a quitter

Happy Friday, everyone. Outside of SEC Media Days which Erik covered thoroughly for you, news is pretty light today. As usual, the media stirs the Alabama pot.

Mike Locksley said he has talked with people at Alabama and is "assured that comment was not directed at me."

"I know this, why wouldn't I want to win the national championship to springboard my time here at Maryland?" https://t.co/ForPWfSHCr— Emily Giambalvo (@EmilyGiam) July 18, 2019

Saban was talking in general about the difficulty in balancing two jobs, which was an issue with Lane Kiffin, but of course the media types are going to spin it as a slight against one or more of them and ask each coach who ended up leaving.
