Insight into Saban and Kiffin's volatile relationship: Kiffin wanted the Bama job, what knocked him out of the running?

The relationship between Lane Kiffin and Nick Saban is back in the headlines this week, thanks in part to revelations from an explosive new book about college football: “The Price: What It Takes to Win in College Football's Era of Chaos.” This week on Beat Everyone, AL.com's Ben Flanagan and Michael Casagrande are joined by 247 Sports' John Talty, who co-authored the new book with Armen Keteyian.

Talty explains why Kiffin and Saban's tenure was so volatile, what their relationship is like today, how seriously we should take Kiffin's internet persona, and why Lane Kiffin failed to put his name forward as Nick Saban's successor.

Then, after the break, Ben, Michael and John talk about their favorite moments, players and games from the Saban-Kiffin era.
