Alabama's Nick Saban not pleased with his unauthorized biography

A kind note of warning to those who may want to write an unauthorized biography of Alabama head coach Nick Saban sometime in the future.

Don't do it.

Monte Burke, a writer with Forbes magazine, did, much to Saban's displeasure, as he let everyone know on Thursday. 

"I just want everybody to know that I'm opposed to an unauthorized biography on anybody," Saban said. "If some person that you don't even know [is] trying to profit by your story or someone else's story."

Burke said he spoke with Saban before starting his project and didn't do anything to stop it from being done. Saban helped with a biography during his time with LSU, and didn't rule out another when he's through at Alabama.

But he's not through, yet.

"One of these days when I'm finished coaching at Alabama, I'll write an authorized book because there's only one expert on my life and guess who that is -- me. And there won't be any misinformation. There won't be any false statements. There won't be any hearsay. There won't be any expert analysis from anybody else. It will be the real deal."

Saban also noted the timing of the release of Burke's book, right about when the Crimson Tide are starting their training camp. Though he was adamant the book would not serve as a distraction to himself nor his team.

When Saban does sit down to that write the book about the thing he's the sole expert -- himself -- he said, "it will have the truth -- the whole truth and nothing but the truth."

Much of it will involve winning.
