Coach of Alabama football Nick Saban declares his retirement. After 17 seasons in Tuscaloosa, Nick Saban, one of college football’s all-time great coaches, has announced his retirement. Saban won seven national championships and helped Alabama regain its status as a national powerhouse, winning six of those titles.
Saban stated in a statement on Wednesday that “the University of Alabama has been a very special place to Terry and me.” “We have cherished every second of our 17 years as Alabama’s head coaches and our integration into the Tuscaloosa community.
It matters more than simply how many games we win and lose; it matters more about our legacy and method of operation. We always made an effort to do things correctly. Being the best player possible, helping players create more value for their future, and helping them succeed in life as a result of being a part of the programme was always the aim.
After 17 seasons at Alabama, 72-year-old Nick Saban recently concluded his career there with a Rose Bowl loss to eventual national champion Michigan.
His 201 victories in 17 seasons tied him with Georgia’s Vince Dooley for the second-most victories at one institution in SEC history, only surpassed by Alabama’s 25-year veteran Bear Bryant’s 232 victories.
