I’m going to leave the jokes to you folks and just report this as bare bones as I can:
Michael Lewis’ book, “The Blind Side,” which chronicled the story of former Ole Miss offensive lineman Michael Oher is being turned into a movie.
In November, when the movie comes out, you’ll get to see Nick Saban (then LSU’s head coach), Ed Orgeron (then Ole Miss’ head coach) and Phillip Fulmer (then Tennessee’s head coach) all playing themselves on the big screen.
When asked about acting alongside the likes of Sandra Bullock and Tim McGraw (uh, they’re not exactly Brad and Angelina these days), Saban said it was an “out-of-body experience.”
“I had to thank the entire crew for taking (me) and trying to mold it into something that was presentable for the big screen. (The actors) have a tremendous amount of professionalism and a real quality about their work and they have tremendous pride and I really enjoyed it.”
Oh, I can’t wait to see Saban, Orgeron and Fulmer act. That should be priceless.
