The Alabama Crimson Tide’s head coach, Nick Saban, is retiring, according to ESPN’s Chris Low. Saban took over Alabama’s program in 2007 and just completed his 17th season with the program.
Saban, who is 72, has built a dominant program at Alabama and won six national titles and established a legacy to be proud of. Saban will go down as one of the greatest college football coaches of all time.
Saban was asked earlier this season when he appeared on ESPN’s College Game Day about his possible retirement plans and said, “I’ve always said if you're thinking about retirement, you're probably already retired, and I’m not there yet.”
College football fans took to X, formally known as Twitter, to share their thoughts of Saban’s retirement.
