Bobby Massie... not sure what the fuss is all about.

Citing a blurb by a reporter for Ole Miss' Scout.com site, the blog reported that Saban had some choice words for recruit Bobby Massie when Massie famously spurned the Tide and picked the Rebels. The site said Saban told Massie, "if you are not going to Alabama I am turning you into the NCAA."

Cue controversy. I admit, it sounded odd. Coaches really don't talk like that, especially this one. But then, some coaches do say strange things. What to do?

So tonight, I called Massie to see what really happened: "Man... what you saw on that blog wasn't even true," Massie told me.

Oh. Wait, what? But I just read it on that blog... And the blog said it checked with its source -- the OM reporter -- who corroborated it. Well, apparently, Massie disagrees. Of course, he's not the only one who noticed.

"I don't even know where that came from," said Massie, the five-star tackle. "Because I was at Ole Miss practice over this past weekend, and I was talking to somebody about my decision to come to Ole Miss. Then I come back here up to Hargrave, and I see everybody on Facebook, phone calls from everywhere, talking about that blog site. People were hitting me up on Facebook, and that (stuff) didn't even happen. I don't know where that came from."

What did he think happened? "My words got switched around," he said.

What was Saban's reaction when Massie told him he becoming a Rebel? One problem: Massie said he never told Saban.

"He never knew," Massie said. "He never knew I was signing with Ole Miss. I talked to him the day before signing day, but in his mind, I was coming to Alabama."

Massie hasn't spoken to Saban since. And as far as he's concerned, he'd like all this to end.

"It's over with," Massie said. "I signed with Ole Miss and not anybody else. So, there's nothing to talk about. I got nothing to say about him, he's got nothing to say about me. I signed with Ole Miss on signing day. That's it."

So there you go...
