Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 4 Team Tryouts
"Hey, hey! Have you heard? Coach Burns found a gem in the school. He is said to be a rare talent, but he has never practiced football. The coach attaches great importance to him and has contacted him several times."

"That's perfect. Let me teach him a good lesson. A shocking education on the training day. Let him know who his father is."

"Hahaha."

"That's not necessary. We are already short of running backs. If we only rely on Josh, a freshman, I think our offense may not be able to get going this year."

"Josh is fine, Damian's injury isn't serious either, he'll be back soon, I don't think we need any more running backs. What, do you think the coach is just going to pick up a homeless guy from the street and play the role of the savior of our Crimson Tide?"

"Savior, it's not that exaggerated..."

"I don't know what Coach Burns is thinking. When did the Crimson Tide become so casual that anyone can become a member. If my grandfather knew about this, he would probably have a cardiac arrest."

"I heard it was an Asian boy..."

"real or fake?"

"No way?"

"How come I didn't know rugby was played in Asia?"

"Idiot, didn't you hear what I said before? That kid has never played football. You'd better shut up, otherwise you'll lower the average IQ of the entire stadium."

It is now April 2016, and there is still half a year before the new season begins in September, but the team is in spring training camp, which is also the last training opportunity before the summer vacation.

The warm-up team was filled with rustling sounds, and the surge of youthful hormones could be clearly felt between their eyebrows. Each of them was unable to keep their composure, and was disturbed by the rumors this morning.

Not only in Tuscaloosa, but throughout Alabama, the University of Alabama football team has unparalleled popularity. Since there are no other professional league teams here, the football teams of the University of Alabama and Auburn University in the state are undoubtedly loved by all residents. The ratings of the games of these two teams are even higher than professional games.

It is conceivable that the players are extremely proud and everyone is happy to be a part of the Crimson Tide, especially the residents of this state.

But now suddenly a foreign monk appeared halfway.

Subconsciously, I became alert.

however.

Cough!

A cough was heard from the sidelines of the court, and all the whispers died down immediately. No one even dared to look towards the sidelines. They all focused on training, because they all knew that this was a signal from the head coach.

Nick Saban.

One of the greatest coaches in NCAA football history, it is even generally believed that it is okay to remove the "one of". As of 2023, the 282-year-old coach has a career record of 70 wins, 1 losses and tie as a college football head coach. This is an incredible winning rate that has never been seen before and will never be surpassed.

Having achieved such brilliant success in the NCAA, Shaban once tried to enter the professional league NFL as a head coach. However, the results of his three challenges in different periods were far from satisfactory, including two unhappy seasons with the Miami Dolphins starting from the 2005 season. Later, he returned to the college arena.

In 2007, Shaban, who had returned from the NFL with failure, took over the University of Alabama Crimson Tide with his own coaching team, including Burns, and brought new life to this traditional football school that had been silent for many years. In just two years, the school won the national championship in 2009, returning to the throne after years.

In his nine seasons at the University of Alabama, Shaban brought the Crimson Tide three national championships, three national semi-finals, and three additional conference finals. In other words, in the past nine years, they have been able to enter the bowl game after the regular season without exception, and they are undoubtedly one of the best college football teams in North America.

Brilliant and dazzling.

There is no doubt that Shaban has absolute authority over the University of Alabama football team.

It is worth mentioning that Shaban has outstanding abilities, and it is an honor for any coach to join his team, so his coaching team has also become the target of poaching by other teams. Over the years, the team members have been replaced wave after wave, but the only exception is Burns.

Burns, as a legendary running back coach, was once the running back coach of another traditional football powerhouse, Clemson University. After Shaban personally came to poach him in 2007, the two have been working together ever since. In front of Shaban, Burns' words naturally carry a different weight.

Now, Burns said he needs Levi, so Shaban believes that they need Levi, and Shaban is also very much looking forward to this genius that Burns praised so highly.

hum.

buzzing.

There is no need to turn around, you can tell from the eyes and reactions of the young boys on the court that the protagonist of the topic has appeared.

Shaban, did not turn around.

This coach has his own style. He always wears a suit in any game or training. His gray hair is neatly combed back, and his caterpillar-like eyebrows are his signature feature.

He stood there straight and serious, until Burns appeared in his sight and greeted him. Then Shaban looked at the young man calmly.

Height. Build. Weight.

Compared with his appearance, what really catches people's attention is his calm and introverted temperament, which naturally exudes a bookish air. Although he seems calm on the surface, Shaban can see the muscle lines in his arms and calves, which are full of strength and ready to go. If someone underestimates his opponent because this young man looks a little thin and because of his skin color, he will definitely fall.

Shaban knows Burns' abilities and has a better eye than him in selecting talents, not only running backs but also other positions. The bond of trust that Shaban has for the assistant head coach is completely different from that for others.

However, the surface is still not obvious.

"What?" Shaban looked away and asked loudly.

Levi repeated his self-introduction again, "Just call me Levi."

"Levi, OK." Shaban nodded slightly in agreement. Without any greetings or formalities, he turned to look at the court and said, "Why don't we get down to business now..."

After a brief pause, Shaban could see the undisguised expressions on the young and tender faces of the players: curiosity, exploration, contempt, playfulness, and provocation. Young people are always so passionate.

Shaban thought about it carefully. He really should take a look at the strength of this young man. Only by understanding his upper and lower limits and accurately grasping his potential can he make good plans for the season.

At running back, the current starting position is freshman Josh Jacobs.

Of course, Jacobs earned this position through his performance and strength, and his talent ceiling is highly regarded by the coaching staff; but choosing a freshman as the main player also shows the predicament of the running back position.

If Levi could bring a surprise...

Therefore, he should choose the main players to confront them in order to see their strength; but he does not need to try too hard at the beginning. He should first look at the basic physical fitness of the young people and the player combinations should be arranged and combined.

Then, Shaban called the names directly.

"Foster, Humphrey, Allen, Jackson, the four of you step out."

Roar.

roar roar.

When they heard their names being called, the other players immediately started to make noises and even whistled. Their eagerness to watch the show was burning in their hearts without any concealment.
