There's a not-so-subtle jab in there by the writer.


The text from the article is in italics, and the bold emphasis was added by me.

"There's certain pride people have in competition. There's certain things I was taught growing up about not quitting and seeing things through. I think if I'd come home and told my dad that I was going to quit the team, I think he'd have kicked me out of the house. I don't think I'd have had a place to stay. Sometimes you didn't have the choices."

But the Crimson Tide coach said players having options these days isn't a bad thing.

"I think it's a good thing that young players have more choices to do things -- they're more exposed to things," said Saban, who left the Miami Dolphins after two seasons to take the Bama job. "But I do think there's a lot more basketball players that are transferring than ever. The tendency now is, if things don't work out the way I want them to work out where I am, I'm going to find a place to play someplace else."


The bold part is the author saying, "See things through, huh Nick? Is that how you see things through?"
