Miami Dolphins head coach Nick Saban said on Thursday that the team does not have any immediate plans to honor the request of defensive tackle Manny Wright to be traded or waived. "Our players do not determine what their outcome is relative to their future," Saban said. "We don't have any of this stuff, 'When it doesn't work here, let me go someplace else.' That's not how it is. If you're not capable, we'll certainly support you and help you. But if you're not interested in doing that, then we determine your fate. You don't."

Nice to see that not all organizations let these over-grown babies run the show.

As a Patriots fan, I'm obviously routing against the Dolphins... but I think Nick Saban is going to be one hell of a coach. In fact, I think he already is.

Couple of weeks ago...

Wright, taken in the fifth round of the NFL's supplemental draft earlier this month, left the practice field in tears Tuesday after being chastised by Saban, who took off his hat and pointed to his head while yelling at the former Southern California defensive tackle.

This guy did the same kind of things last year during camp, not sure exactly what his issue is.

I was happy to hear this on SportsCenter this morning as well.

The players are not the boss and only some coaches let that be known.

I guess you've missed out on college football for a decade or so. Saban has a very good track level in both the NFL and especially in college. He's a solid guy and a great coach. Very glad he left Michigan St.

Dolphin fans won the lottery when Saban was named their coach.

We've come a long way since Dumbstadt.

As a Jet fan I was praying Mike Nolan went to Miami....Saban is the real deal from what he said last year that basically "W/L doesn't mean everything" - Ahhh, the Anti-Herm Edwards... to this statement... The Guy lays it on the line and says what he wants.

this is the kind of stuff Saban would say all the time @ LSU. Dude is awesome
