Over his decades-spanning career at Alabama, Eli Gold has had a unique view behind the curtain at the inner workings of Alabama football, including each of its head coaches dating all the way back to Bill Curry. In the course of his work as the voice of the Crimson Tide, Eli had the chance to not just meet but really get to know these fascinating figures, seeing them at their best, their worst, and everywhere in between.

Today, Eli joins AL.com's Ben Flanagan and Michael Casagrande to discuss his experiences meeting and working with six Alabama head football coaches, from Bill Curry all the way through Nick Saban and shares stories about how each man approached the job in his own unique way, for better or worse.
