Description

Eli Gold doesn't like to pre-script anything, but he learned early on that there was a right way to ask Nick Saban a question and a wrong way. Don't ask the coach to compare players. It's not happening. But as the voice of Alabama football for Saban's entire tenure at Alabama, Eli got to know Saban's sense of humor, his kindness and his unparalleled work ethic.

Today, on Beat Everyone, AL.com's Ben Flanagan and Michael Casagrande take us back into the Golden Age for a wide ranging discussion about Eli's working relationship with Nick Saban. And Michael reflects on his infamous "rat poison" moment with Saban. 

Got a question for Eli? Leave us a voicemail at 205-523-4809.
