Keelon Russell has one of the MOST BEAUTIFUL releases you’ll ever see. One NFL scout believes there’s “shades” of Jayden Daniels to Russell’s game. Russell is “pulling away” in Alabama’s battle for QB1 😳🔥

I got into a bar fight over an Eastern Michigan shirt in Manhattan, Kansas

I went to a K-State bar in Manhattan, Kansas last night wearing a very generic shirt that just read “Eastern Michigan Football”. I was talking to this guy, we were just chatting, he kind of goes off the rail and at some point says “and this guy’s wearing a high school shirt” I was dumbfounded. He said it like an insult after we were being friendly. I just say Eastern Michigan is a division 1 school and start to go about my business. Dude did not like that and for whatever reason I entertained it and got into an actual fight over it. Needless to say I won because I have the MAC on my back. After I was kicked out of “Tubby’s” I go around and ask a couple other guys in their bar district what they think Eastern Michigan is. Everything was a retold response of “that sounds like a high school” I don’t know if it’s just Kansas State? I’ve heard they aren’t the smartest and they really didn’t seem like it but I feel any fan of college sports would know at the very least about the grey turf and Maxx Crosby. I have never set foot in Ypsilanti, or Michigan, and I am not an Eastern Michigan fan.

Six Degrees of Saban - Coaching Trees

I've been building a site that maps college football coaching trees — who worked under whom, going back decades. When I started pulling Saban's numbers, it stopped being a feature and became its own page, sixdegreesofsaban.com, inspired by the six degrees of Kevin Bacon (iykyk).

The rule is simple: two coaches are connected if they worked on the same staff. Pick any active FBS head coach and it traces the shortest chain back to Saban.

What ~30,000 documented staff connections say:

  • All 137 active FBS head coaches connect back to Saban. Every single one. There is no escaping him.
  • The average is just 2.1 degrees.
  • 23 coaches are one handshake away — Kirby, Kiffin, Sark, Cignetti… and Bill Belichick.
  • The longest chain in the entire sport is only 4 degrees. Two coaches hold it — see if you can find them.

If you like rabbit holes, the same project has full coaching trees for 600+ FBS head coaches at gridirontree.com — Saban's tree runs four generations deep. There's also Pick Six, a daily coach-guessing game (six guesses, six attributes) in the style of Wordle.

Free, no signup to play. Built it as a fan. Curious whose path surprises you most. If you notice any errors, please let me know.
