For me as a Bama fan, my immediate reaction is simple grattitude. I will DEEPLY appreciate what he's done for Alabama for the rest of my life. Plenty of time to talk about what's next, but for now I just want to express my appreciation. I sincerely wish him a wonderful retirement - he's certainly earned it!
He was the perfect villain, and the perfect hero. What he did will never be duplicated and as a fan of college football, you cant help but feel saddened that we are seeing a door close on the greatest coach to ever do it. My heart goes put to you Bama fans, but everybody needs to realize how lucky we were being able to live through that run he put together. Time for him to go enjoy his golden years with Mrs. Terry.
@TVsGringoStarr if you're a Bama fan or an SEC fan then I see your point, but from every other college program, for their fans, he was just because of how good he was. We played him twice and won one and lost one.
I wouldn't say "never be duplicated"...records are made to be broken. Plenty of young talented HCs out there now. Eventually, Saban's numbers will be matched or topped. Might not be in our lifetime, but it will happen.
To be honest this is super healthy for the sport. I know they stopped winning nattys a while back but the way the media and ESPN and CFP treated them with so much positive bias was very toxic.
@@kleins-v7v idk about that. That time could win any game it was in because of him. Really lame that he waited until the transfer window closed to announce though
As a Georgia fan. I must admit Nick had one hell of run. This man deserves to go down as the greatest college football coach ever. Much respect to nick saban. Go Dawgs 2024 and beyond!
Love him or hate him, he not only changed Alabama, he changed college football. Just look at the coaches he mentored, some of which might not even be coaches now, and made the rest step up their games. Thanks Nick, RMFT!!!!
As a Georgia fan, I’ve had respect for Saban ever since he went to bat for us after the 2012 SEC championship loss during the Mark Richt era. Kind of a bitter sweet moment.
@@tenebre911 he said its a crying shame that Georgia doesn’t make a BCS bowl givin the fact they was one play away from making a Natty.. Instead Georgia went to a lousy cap 1 bowl.
As a Bama fan. I hate to see him go but he deserves it. One of it not the best to ever do it. He needs to relax and spend time living life with Mrs Terry. I’m just lucky Alabama had him and glad I got to grow up with him coaching my team. Hell of a man.
As an OSU fan, im not even happy to see him go, its kind of sad, the end of a dynasty/era. Im just glad I was alove and got to witness his historical run. He has earned every reward and title he won and I hope he gets to enjoy his remaining years with Mrs. Terry. Hats off to you coach, you will be missed by all true college football fans.
Absolute mad respect to this dude. I’ve never had a bigger rush in life watching the Sugar Bowl in 2014 with Ohio State vs Alabama. An absolute privilege to know that Ohio State got to play against this coach. Not about the win that year, and the loss in 2020 in the Natty. Just an honor to have been a part of that legacy. Saban is the absolute GOAT. We can all talk as much shit about each other as we want, but sooner or later we gotta also spit facts.
I'll tell you Ohio State fan, as a Michigan fan, just like how it made your run that much sweeter, beating Saban in the Rose Bowl, in his last game, makes this Championship that much sweeter, knowing you beat the best coach ever on the biggest stage.
As a Bama fan appreciate you giving Saban his props, yeah take the Jersey off and he's the goat. Oh shit what are we going to do. Hey I remember some 6-7 season. I loved them all because I'm a true fan.
As a Michigan fan this is a sad day even tho I’ve never been a fan personally you have to respect what the man has been able to do and appreciate his greatness
As A Alabama Fan I'm blessed I'm thankful And we can now have a fan base without Bandwagon fans If we don't win for awhile we had a ride of all rides thank you Coach Saban from this guy from a small town in Russellville Alabama I'm thankful you brought us back from the dead Nothing last forever and now comes the time where we sit back and reflect the ride
This is a Sad day for all us Bama fans but man has he brought me some great memories and teams thorugh my life im 27 ands so hard to remember with out him ( i definitely do it just seems long ago i was in elementary school amd play peewee football) i hope he enjoys Retirement Roll tide!!
As long as we don't have a dude with his mouth open lookin confused like Mike Shula when he was there or a guy more worried about snatch I think whoever gets it can keep the culture close for a few years. Roll tide bro
Welp time for Bama fans to go back to NASCAR 😂😂. In all seriousness though dude is the GOAT of CFB. Thank you Nick Saban for all you’ve done for the sport and the funny moments and all the memories, you will truly be missed!
Lifelong Alabama fan and third generation alum. I'm nothing but grateful. When we hired him people were excited about the possibility of winning A national championship, and then he went and did this. #1 in the AP for 15 straight years. Literally light years beyond what anyone's wildest dreams were in 2007 when he was hired. Thank you coach.
As a lifelong diehard BAMA fan I didn't expect this this soon but knew it would come, SABAN is the GOAT and we will always love SABAN and appreciate what he did for BAMA ROLL TIDE ROLL and wish the best for him
As a Bama man I’m sad but I’m thankful and happy for all 15 years of my life was filled with joy and dominance thank you Nick Saban. #RollTide #ThankYouNickSaban
As a Bama fan, it Mos definitely hurts and actually makes me emotional due to my love for my team. Coach is 70+ years old. With NIL, transfer portals, kids who just don't have the same love for this game as past kid, due to money & things other than football....you can't blame coach. It's a WELL DESERVED retirement for coach Saban. Time to take care of himself & Mrs Terry. RTR! 🙏🏼🐘🏆 for Saban & his family.
I have been a Bama fan since the 60s before you were even born. Bama is a great program and they have a tradition of winning. Kirby is a product of Saban as are many Coaches in the game.! Will miss him, but the sun will rise tomorrow. It’s the facts of life
As a TN Vol fan I'm sad to see him go. I was hoping for another chance to beat him next year in Knoxville, lol. It just won't be the same now. But I'm also excited too. Him leaving will open the SEC for another team to reach the top tier. If Smart leaves for the NFL that will really open things up. Also how many of them recruits and big time players will be jumping ship. We need some OT's and CB's.
This is absolutely insane Alabama has a great team coming back next year so I thought he would be coaching for at least one more year but wow he’s gone already he’s the greatest college football coach of all time and has done incredible things at Alabama I knew I’d be coming sooner or later with him buying a mansion in Miami before last season but I thought he would at least wait till after 2024 looks like JJ Watt was right lol
As a Tennessee fan, I'm just glad we were able to beat him once last year. He's the greatest to ever do it, and it's unlikely we'll ever see a reign like this again. The question is: why now? Is he just burned out with having to grind through all the crazy changes in the sport? Or is he bailing out to his bagillion dollar estate with all the other elites because college football won't happen beyond 2024?
He's probably tired. He has new grandbabies and he's in his 70s. The last couple of years, I can tell by watching him on the sidelines that he's mellowed out. He's getting calmer. Slower. To perform at the level that Saban has for this long and in this kind of an environment, there is a toll to be paid.
I can't blame the guy with what he has done and his age what the coaches go through is unreal they are never home they miss so much of their kids growing up the guy is 72 I think and he deserves to go enjoy his family and his loads of money
As a Georgia fan I’m happy but also happy for him! Let’s face it, if it makes you happy it’s just a true testament to how he dominated in his run. Congrats to Coach Saban! Enjoy that well deserved retirement!
Texas fan here. So much respect for Nick Saban. He truly is the Greatest Of All Time! Definitely feels like the end of an era. Alabama will go on but never forget the man, the myth, the legend, Nick Saban!
@@systemtoincreasewebsitetra5516I'd argue that either Chuck Knoll, Bill Walsh, Bill Blichick, or Don Shula were better. Rather have Lane Kiffen over Dan Lanning; if you're going to go on 4th Down a ton, I want an offensive guy.
After the loss to Michigan, Mrs Terry said she asked Nick if he wanted to watch the other game and he said no. After that I had a feeling he may retire. The man is tired and I can see it in his eyes. I've been a fan of Bama since the Gene Stallings era so Ive lived through the ups and downs. I know we'll never have that kind of success again. I just want to say thank you to the Saban's for being amazing people and doing the state of Alabama so proud. We'll never forget you. Roll Tide!
Knowing that he will own Georgia forever is sad. It’s a sad day for Georgia fans too but also happy . Thanks for the memories and heartbreaks Saban. Go dawgs!
Graduated from Alabama in 1974whenBear Bryant was coaching. There were lean times after the Bear until Nick Saban took over. Nick Saban helped me to indoctrinate my grandkids into Alabama football and we had so much fun on Saturdays for years. Thank you, Coach Saban. Your talent and hard work and commitment made a HUGE difference in the lives of so many people in a positive way. Best wishes to you and your family. The GOAT, indeed.
Dang. As soon as the playing field gets more even with NIL & Transfer portal, he quits? I mean i know he only has 1 title since 2018 and it was *covid but dang.
I dont think it has anything to do with competition. It is likely because he is like 72 and wants to spend time with his family before dies and not have the stress of coaching a college football team.
Lmao who the hell wants to deal with all this bullshit in cfb rn? U see harbaugh leaving and saban it won’t suprise me if kirby leaves too. It’s just the cfb calendar for coaches is insane
He was just as dominant with all the bs. 3 of the last 4 sec championships. Coaching in college is harder than the nfl at the moment with the awful schedule.
Bama fan here! I appreciate EVERYTHING Nick Saban has done for Alabama! He has been a HELL OF A COACH!!! Saban has proved why he is a great coach. What he and Mrs. Terri has done for charities! Nick’s kids, Children’s of Alabama, etc. To see him not be on the sideline is going to be hard! THANK YOU NICK FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE DONE! Everyone is treating it like a family death. He is still alive, but he is not coaching. ROLL TIDE & THANK YOU NICK SABAN!!!
51 yr old life long Bama fan here. What a ride it has been, Saban is no doubt the GOAT. Sad to say that no matter who gets hired as the next coach the fans will crucify them the first time the don't win 11 games per season. We witnessed this right after the late Bear Bryant retired in 1983. The first three coaches were crucified by the fans. It won't be the same because no one does or will do it better than Saban. The only one that will and already is even coming close to doing it is Kirby. All things must come to an end sooner or later. I thank coach Saban for restoring the Alabama standard, and leaving us better than he found us. Thanks for the memories, the passion you restored. Enjoy your retirement, you earned it coach( The Goat)
As a Wolverines fan & Michigan being the answer to a trivia question for years to come( Who was the last team to beat Saban in his last game), nothing but respect & salute to an all time great of college football...he made the Tide the standard program in the modern era...congrats on an amazing career
Absolutely love/hate relationship with Saban. The GOAT. We were blessed to witness it even if it meant watching our team get crushed by him and having our hearts broken over and over and over again. Enjoy your golden years. Honestly, this is the best year for such a transition. No one could ever fill his shoes, but with the changes to the SEC and the 12 team playoff, you don't have to. You can try to make your own shoes. Go Dawgs.
Tennessee fan here Im not sure how to feel I like it but damn it I really hate it. He is 1 of a kind there will never be another one like him ever. He is the Goat hands down and I don't think anyone will even come close to doing what he did. I respected the hell out of him I hated to losing to him but I really hate to see greatness step away because it was amazing to see.
This is why everybody loves your channel no matter what team they pull for. Straight up unbiased, hard-core college football truth. We are going to miss you when you retire.
Lou, you've pissed me off endlessly, but brother, this speaks volumes! From a Bama fan let me say this, your Top Shelf in this video! Hope your Dawgs fill the void buddy, keep on keeping on.
I remember when Bear Bryant retired. Same kind of deflated feeling. You got to move on eventually. We knew this day would come someday. Time to face the music. It was a GREAT run. I never thought I see a coach that would surpass Bear Bryant. Coach Bryant won 5 AP titles. Came within a combined total of 7 points of winning 3 more AP titles and have 3 more undefeated untied seasons. Saban passed that. Amazing. Well done Coach Saban.
Definitely wanted to hear your take on this Uncle Lou. It is kind of a sad day but I truly believe it was time. Go out on a high note. Thanks for your respectful remarks. He was the standard. His absence will be felt. But, Go Dawgs!
The greatest coach of all time. It won’t feel the same without him. Go Dawgs
Yea it wont... now we can get sum calls against bama that should have went our way😎🍺go dawgs

Much respect and best wishes. Coach Saban thank you and good luck in the future .
51 yr old life long Bama fan here. What a ride it has been, Saban is no doubt the GOAT. Sad to say that no matter who gets hired as the next coach the fans will crucify them the first time the don't win 11 games per season. We witnessed this right after the late Bear Bryant retired in 1983. The first three coaches were crucified by the fans. It won't be the same because no one does or will do it better than Saban. The only one that will and already is even coming close to doing it is Kirby. All things must come to an end sooner or later. I thank coach Saban for restoring the Alabama standard, and leaving us better than he found us. Thanks for the memories, the passion you restored. Enjoy your retirement, you earned it coach( The Goat)
As a Wolverines fan & Michigan being the answer to a trivia question for years to come( Who was the last team to beat Saban in his last game), nothing but respect & salute to an all time great of college football...he made the Tide the standard program in the modern era...congrats on an amazing career
Thanks, coach. And thank you, WOU
Absolutely love/hate relationship with Saban. The GOAT. We were blessed to witness it even if it meant watching our team get crushed by him and having our hearts broken over and over and over again. Enjoy your golden years. Honestly, this is the best year for such a transition. No one could ever fill his shoes, but with the changes to the SEC and the 12 team playoff, you don't have to. You can try to make your own shoes. Go Dawgs.
Saban da goat. Nothing but best wishes for him. Gumps congratulations on the historic run. But remember college football continues.
Let’s gooo!!!🥳🥳🥳
I'm a Vols fan but I like Nick Saban.... He is by far the greatest college football coach....
52 years as a Bama fan. I'm also 52 years old . I remember the 1980s. The 3 Mike's. No matter who they get, I will still be a Bama fan.
As a UK fan and just a college football fan, it's been an amazing run to watch. Much respect to the GOAT.
Impossible to replace. Roll tide. Thanks Coach saban. Roll tide
Tennessee fan here Im not sure how to feel I like it but damn it I really hate it. He is 1 of a kind there will never be another one like him ever. He is the Goat hands down and I don't think anyone will even come close to doing what he did. I respected the hell out of him I hated to losing to him but I really hate to see greatness step away because it was amazing to see.
Straight to TV or The First CFB Commissioner!!!! Thanks for all the good times Coach! Roll Tide!
Much respect for Saban from this Dawgs fan.
This is why everybody loves your channel no matter what team they pull for. Straight up unbiased, hard-core college football truth. We are going to miss you when you retire.
Sad day. The Nick Saban era was Legendary and I enjoyed it very much... we will never see that kind of greatness again. GoBucks
Thank you transfer portal and NIL.
Best news ever as a Dawg fan
We love coach Saban and we'll certainly miss him. I'm glad he's retiring. I'd rather see him enjoy his golden years. Thanks coach.
Lou, you've pissed me off endlessly, but brother, this speaks volumes! From a Bama fan let me say this, your Top Shelf in this video!
Hope your Dawgs fill the void buddy, keep on keeping on.
Can't lie after hearing about Coach Carroll, I didn't expect this. Happy 4 Coach Saban, his family & all.
Hes finally coming home! Greatest of all time! for now... GO DAWGS!!!
Wow. That's a shock. We will see. WHAT happens. My hats off to the BEST
I remember when Bear Bryant retired. Same kind of deflated feeling. You got to move on eventually. We knew this day would come someday. Time to face the music. It was a GREAT run.
I never thought I see a coach that would surpass Bear Bryant. Coach Bryant won 5 AP titles. Came within a combined total of 7 points of winning 3 more AP titles and have 3 more undefeated untied seasons. Saban passed that. Amazing. Well done Coach Saban.
No matter who you are a fan of you have to appreciate greatness. Roll tide
As a volunteer fan I wanna be celebrating but I can’t rn. Crazy to watch the goat in my lifetime
Thank You Lou. You are the first video I went to. Always loved your content. Roll Tide Go Dawgs. See You in the Fall.
My love for Alabama was in 91 with Stallings! Saban put the cherry on top for me anyway!
RTR 🐘 🐘
Definitely wanted to hear your take on this Uncle Lou. It is kind of a sad day but I truly believe it was time. Go out on a high note. Thanks for your respectful remarks. He was the standard. His absence will be felt. But, Go Dawgs!
Lanning from Oregon is the favorite right now, rumor is they've already been in talks
Respect 🫡
as a Michigan guy who doesn't like Bama, but could listen to Saban speak all day....simply the best to ever do it.
uncle lou you have pure class ,top shelf uncle lou
