As a graduate of Alabama during Saban’s legendary run, he was regarded as so much more than a legendary coach for his players and the rest of the students at Bama. He was the perfect example of sportsmanship, leadership and most importantly, a human being that wanted nothing more than the people around him to succeed and reach their full potential. Not only did he help over 100 players in his career reach their dream of making it to the NFL and create a lasting legacy for their family’s, he also mentored multiple of his assistant coaches that went on to become successful head coaches in the NCAA that he would have to compete against. Love or hate Bama, it’s hard to argue that this man is not only the GOAT of college football but also the pinnacle of what a coach should be at any level. Thank you Coach Saban for all you have done for Bama, the sport of football and for all the lives you touched during your career. Roll Tide
CNS transformed Tuscaloosa, specifically the university blvd area. I stepped on campus in 2008 as a freshman and areas of campus are unrecognizable to me. All credit to Coach.
@@richardhurley9885this…☝🏼…if anyone ever questions his value, just take a trip to Tuscaloosa and you will notice all of the new construction…not just at the University, but the entire town has been transformed both residential and commercial. His value goes way beyond what you see on Saturday…way beyond!
As a LSU fan, no one in this fanbase should hate or discredit this man…. He put LSU football back on the map with securing two sec championships and a national championship. Even tho he got the best of us as a rival, his work in Baton Rouge will never be forgotten 💯 the greatest 🙏🏾
Yep and he set LSU up for success in the years after…it’s not just the coaching and recruiting that makes him so great. It’s the way he transforms a program from the bottom up. He builds an unstoppable well oiled machine. LSUs success beyond his time there was made possible by what he built while he was there.
@@b-rad2699 yea he definitely set us up for that 07 national championship, but les miles recruiting with coach O 2019 forming arguably the greatest CFB team in history plays a part to in lsu recent memory success
@@rshd9193 Those 6-8 years in the rivalry when both BAMA and LSU (w/Miles) were at peak - those games and players will always be historically special for Collegiate Football. It became a season within a season every freaking year. Great football, great players, great game environments, great Head Coaches - and two great SEC Football Programs. I'm thankful I was alive to witness it.
@@NVRAMboi exactly man!!! It’s something about that lsu vs bama rivalry (with saban) that felt like nfl games. That’s what seperate’s those games then any other rivalry, because the entire atmosphere and energy is different then a average college environment 💯
As a Tennessee fan. This man is the goat and I have so much respect for him. As much as I hate to say it, I’m gonna miss this man a little bit. Not seeing him on Saturdays is gonna be weird
I have been a Bama fan my whole life. I agree that he set the standard at LSU and Alabama. Everyone who takes those jobs will be compared to him and how he was able to get the very best out of his players BUT I think its unreasonable for Saban to be considered the standard across the board. Most people agree that what he accomplished at Bama will never be seen again. Just like everything else, it will be broken down into eras. We had the shitty pre BCS era, then the BCS, now the playoff and NIL. Saban will go down as the best ever but I hope the unreasonable expectations people put on a coach from the Saban Tree eases up. I think its Kirby Smarts era now.
@majackson6478 *" Kirby will be measured against what Saban accomplished."* LOL Saban 26-0 in his 20th season as HC, 22 if you count Miami Herbie 29-0 in his 8th season. How about NCs or bowl wins 8 yrs in.
@CourtDrew *"Just like everything else, it will be broken down into eras. We had the shitty pre BCS era, then the BCS, now the playoff and NI"* History will have it. The BCS was despised, and Saban won 4 NC in 4 tries and then a playoff came to be and Saban won 3 NCs in 8 tries giving total credence to why the BCS needed to go away. In short, his BCS NCs will be regarded in the same light as OU's 47-0 run.
I can never get enough Coach Saban. He knows how to work a room and is so inspirational. I'm glad we will still get to at least see him give these kind of speeches still and see him on GameDay and stuff.
Yes, him locking arms with the players as he marched during the BLM BS was all I needed to see what a little man his was. Doing everything he could to buffalo the black players into believing he cared. Cannot stand the runt.
Wow. I was already amazed at Mr. Saban's accomplishments, but I am even more impressed at how he has led. Profound words we all could implement in our lives. "Who have you helped today?"
As much as some people hated on him for his success, what you saw on that stage is the Coach Saban that us Bama fans have known all along. It's more important to him that his players succeed in life, whether that be on or off the field. He & his wife care so much for the guys. We were fortunate enough to have him to set the standard at the Univ. of Alabama.
@Poiboy82 try it. Go up and ask 10 people who have they helped. Honest people will come down on you and ask what plucking business it is of yours? Saban really thinks too much of himself!
@@mas5867 back to the basement dude, nothing but negativity from you. What this man accomplished, championships aside, is more than you could ever hope you achieve in your life.
Not a single note card. That came from his heart. So proud to have grown up a Bama fan for my 59 years. I was alive for most of Coach Bryant’s dynasty, suffered through the down years, watched Saban dominate college football for 17 years. It was an amazing ride. Can’t wait to see what CKD does. I think we’re gonna be fine. Roll Tide, Coach and enjoy every moment. You deserve it.
@@andrewtrotter9023 while Saban did face stronger LSU teams than the coaches of the previous 2, 17 yrs periods. The AU and TN teams during his 17 yrs were weaker. Weaker competition inflated his stats.
Michigan fan here, there is no greater testament to the character of this man than how he elevates the importance of the people around him. Given all that he’s achieved, he remains humble and preaches the importance of character and integrity. Congratulations Coach, you’re the greatest to ever do it. The college football world will miss you.
I am FOREVER GRATEFUL that Coach Saban stayed at the University of Alabama for 17 years!! He made Alabama better and college football, as a whole, better!! I will sorely miss his, "Hey Coach" segments each week! I do wish, kinda, that he had stepped away a few years earlier and done his magic and became the college football commissioner! I love Coach Saban! Thank you so, so very much! ROLL TIDE! ❤❤
My theory: Coaching and teaching are not simply things he does. They're WHO HE IS as a person. "I enjoy being part of a team." Many or most of us who've participated for a decade or more in organized sports know exactly what he's talking about.
I’m a huge Buckeye fan too, but really admire Nick Saban! He’s a great coach, probably the best of all time, and a great person as well! He also got his start at Ohio State, with Urban Meyer, as assistant coaches! I think Alabama fans should thank Ohio State for the success of there program! Go Buckeyes! 🌰🏈
You know the one thing that makes his tenure that much more incredible is something folks rarely think about. At any point in time during his coaching, between 1/4 and 1/3 of his team was brand spanking new, every year. Absolutely incredible not only to 1. Teach kids to play at that high of a level. But 2. To instill an insanely high amount of character in each of those kids in such a short period of time. The guy truely is a second father figure to thousands of players and really is what all coaches, whether it be little league to D1 football, should be like.
Excellent speech, Coach. I am grateful to Father God that he afforded me the opportunity to be a part of Alabama Athletics for 24 years. Worked with a list of amazing head coaches, assistant coaches, and support staff. From Head football Coach Gene Stallings, Mike Dubose, Dennis Franchione, Mike Price, Mike Shula, and finally Nick Saban. Indeed a memorable time in my career. Best wishes to you Coach and Terry. You and the tremendous success at Alabama FOREVER changed the landscape of CFA. You indeed are an Icon. Roll Tide 🐘
As a Georgia fan its been frustrating playing you all these years but man are you a special coach. In game adjustments better than anybody! Good luck in your new tourney coach 🤟
The way this man speaks makes you want to run threw a wall for em it's no wonder y he was such a great great coach the man was a teacher and he'll forever be a legend gotta love saban. ❤️🐘
Congrats to Coach Saban!! 668 degrees earned by his players in 17 years. That's a Winning Recipe because everyone will not have the opportunity to play in the NFL. That prepares them for LIFE. That's the Real Saban Factor teaching others how to follow a Process to Succeed. Coach I wish you well. You Deserve Much Happiness. Roll Tide
As a DIE HARD Florida State Seminoles fan, and having the privilege to grow up witnessing the greatness of Bobby Bowden 👑..Nick Saban is the greatest coach of all time in all sports!! What an iconic man !! Bobby Bowden would be so proud!!
I'm an Alabama fan but I loved me some Bobby Bowden. He wasn't afraid to play anybody. The FSU/UM rivalry is alive today because he made sure they played every year even though they didn't have to.
@danielcolon3795 Bowden beat 9 win Miami and FL teams in both of his NC years. At AL, Saban NEVER played a 9 win AU team in any of his NC years. And while at LSU, Saban NEVER played a 9 win AL team.
Funny how he got so much hate from fans across the nation but now everyone's true feelings about him come rising to the top lol We were fortunate to have him in Tuscaloosa as long as we did👍
Exactly! Thank you! Everybody hated Saban, until he stopped coaching, now all this love from every corner of the country. Us Bama fans remember, we love him, and y’all are too late.
@briangreen256 in a short few yrs, people will turn on Saban, starting with his bailing on his 8 yr contract after 2 yrs bec the landscape became more competitive and then analyzing his on the field results like yours truly has. He simply was the greatest, most overrated coach in history.
@@mas5867 brother can you gain a life outside of Saban hatred? You have skulked across every page you can to badmouth a man you'll never hold a candle to. Find a hobby that doesn't involve an obsessive hatred of a coach in a college sport.
We can all be a fan of somebody. You know the real thing when you see it and hear it though. Saban is that dude. Takes a special kind of man to be a leader of men..
He just gave master class on humility. Always coaching, teaching,and making you a better person. Even if you aren't an athlete you take away words of wisdom. I hope and pray he never stops being vocal. Preach Coach and we will listen. Thank you for all you do ❤. RTR 🐘
Love you Coach ❤ Roll Tide!!!!! Lets go Texas Longhorns,LSU, Georgia,Ole Miss and every one else ❤❤❤❤❤❤ Ya we play against each other but we are brother thanks to him and oir respect ❤ Rolll Tide!
Thank you Coach Saban for everything you have done for Alabama football & college football. Undeniably an Icon. The GOAT. His greatness & gratitude for everyone who helped him is incredible. He is humble & such a good man of high character. He believes in education, compassion & doing everything to the best of their ability. Truly Coach Saban is a man to be respected in every way. The best. Roll Tide & Thank you Coach Saban forever.
As an Auburn fan you can’t do anything but respect his ability to have unbelievable continued success yr after yr with different players and coaches. And you never heard 1 single bad thing about him
When he was hired, I could never have imagined the success that he would have at Alabama, even in my wildest dreams. At a certain point in his legendary run as a fan, I wouldn't question whether or not Alabama would win, but how much they were going to win by. As a fan base, we have been very fortunate to witness the success that Coach Saban has brought to this program and school. Of course, you must remember to mention Mrs. Terry's influence on the program and all she did for the community. The state of shock I had when he finally said he was retiring was immeasurable, but I had to look back at all the years of sensational football that he and the teams provided us as a fanbase and just be thankful to be here to see it happen. It was statistically the greatest run by any coach at a program ever by the best coach to ever teach players the game of football. Thank you, Coach Saban, Mrs. Terry, the players that played for Coach Saban, and the entire Saban family for the dedication and sacrifice yall made all these years! Roll Tide Roll!
I've heard Coach Saban speak several times over the years. He never fails to inspire folks to do and be their best. Best motivator in any sport. Thanks Coach!
I admire him so much. He is such a great coach and an even better human being. I cried the day he retired as he had that big an impact on me and my life. The game will suffer without him coaching, but I understand the reasons he stated. With NIL and the proliferation of the whats in it for me culture, the players he was seeing were not the same. I would say God Bless you coach, but he already has.
Nick Saban was one of the most amazing winningest football coaches. No one can take that from him. Him, along with the players' talent and his game plan, produced many outstanding players who are very successful on and off the field.
Every team is bama fans watched run into that field and play the game, showed the character and leadership of this man, that never die attitude, yet humble and respectful. In his last season alone his team showed that never die attitude. There’s no doubt how much he and his wife care for young men and women across the world. We all love you coach and I feel many fans of rivals will soon come out and admit their love for you also 😂
I always enjoyed listening to what he was up to with Nick's Kids, or having the players visit places. Love hearing how his players are succeeding. I loved his rants. The mercedes dealerships are awesome, just to visit. I loved hearing on local news what he was up to. Love Ms Terry and Kristen Saban. Glad he's still hanging around. I remember when he arrived in T-Town. It was such a great day; his arrival was paramount. He is the GOAT.
Coach Saban is a very humble man. That’s one reason why he’s so great.. enjoy your retirement sir you deserve it, you left with legacy and a dynasty. I don’t know if any coach will ever surpass his record. You will be missed…Roll Tide!!
Love you, Nick Saban. Thanks for all the memories you gave us, Alabama fans, and what you brought to college football. To the greatest of all time.❤❤. Roll Tide Roll.
As an Auburn fan. This man was indeed. Perfection. And his teams showed his character. With that said I'm glad he's gone lol. He's a Legend!!!!!

Congratulations, Coach 👏🏻

He just gave master class on humility. Always coaching, teaching,and making you a better person. Even if you aren't an athlete you take away words of wisdom. I hope and pray he never stops being vocal. Preach Coach and we will listen. Thank you for all you do ❤. RTR 🐘

Respect for Coach Saban
What a speech.
So many great 'moments and messages' in Saban's speech.
Love that he mentioned ALL THE PEOPLE that it takes to make a great team.
Thank you Coach Saban for everything you have done for Alabama football & college football. Undeniably an Icon. The GOAT. His greatness & gratitude for everyone who helped him is incredible. He is humble & such a good man of high character. He believes in education, compassion & doing everything to the best of their ability. Truly Coach Saban is a man to be respected in every way. The best. Roll Tide & Thank you Coach Saban forever.
As an Auburn fan you can’t do anything but respect his ability to have unbelievable continued success yr after yr with different players and coaches. And you never heard 1 single bad thing about him
When he was hired, I could never have imagined the success that he would have at Alabama, even in my wildest dreams. At a certain point in his legendary run as a fan, I wouldn't question whether or not Alabama would win, but how much they were going to win by. As a fan base, we have been very fortunate to witness the success that Coach Saban has brought to this program and school. Of course, you must remember to mention Mrs. Terry's influence on the program and all she did for the community. The state of shock I had when he finally said he was retiring was immeasurable, but I had to look back at all the years of sensational football that he and the teams provided us as a fanbase and just be thankful to be here to see it happen. It was statistically the greatest run by any coach at a program ever by the best coach to ever teach players the game of football. Thank you, Coach Saban, Mrs. Terry, the players that played for Coach Saban, and the entire Saban family for the dedication and sacrifice yall made all these years! Roll Tide Roll!
The GOAT 🐐 RTR
Most respect. He truly cared for his players. Miss you coach
Congratulations!!! Nick is the GOAT
Gonna miss this guy, incredible mentor. Roll tide coach!
I've heard Coach Saban speak several times over the years. He never fails to inspire folks to do and be their best. Best motivator in any sport. Thanks Coach!
I admire him so much. He is such a great coach and an even better human being. I cried the day he retired as he had that big an impact on me and my life. The game will suffer without him coaching, but I understand the reasons he stated. With NIL and the proliferation of the whats in it for me culture, the players he was seeing were not the same. I would say God Bless you coach, but he already has.
That one heck of a legend roll tide
Word's of wisdom spoken by a true leader who has the results to prove it.
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be. Coach king Saban 💯💯💯
Congratulations well deserved! Nick Saban you are a wonderful, respectful and caring Man.
Nick Saban was one of the most amazing winningest football coaches. No one can take that from him. Him, along with the players' talent and his game plan, produced many outstanding players who are very successful on and off the field.
Every team is bama fans watched run into that field and play the game, showed the character and leadership of this man, that never die attitude, yet humble and respectful. In his last season alone his team showed that never die attitude. There’s no doubt how much he and his wife care for young men and women across the world. We all love you coach and I feel many fans of rivals will soon come out and admit their love for you also 😂
I'm not tearing up at all.
I am...RTR
I thought I was the only one lol, very powerful
i love that man he's the Goat and such a great human RTR !!!! Coach Saban
We miss you Coach thanks for all that you did and still continue to do! ROLL TIDE!

The best to ever do it , as a bama fan I was blessed to witness it , thanks for the memories Coach , Roll Tide!!
Love this man. God bless you, Coach.
ROLL TIDE COACH!! 12 years old to now still can’t believe how incredibly talented you are.
Love my coach. Roll Tide.
One thing that is amazing by Saban is his message has ALWAYS been consistent. From his first day speech in Alabama is the same as what he's saying now
i’m gonna miss him, Roll Tide!!! 🐘❤🌊
I always enjoyed listening to what he was up to with Nick's Kids, or having the players visit places. Love hearing how his players are succeeding. I loved his rants. The mercedes dealerships are awesome, just to visit. I loved hearing on local news what he was up to. Love Ms Terry and Kristen Saban. Glad he's still hanging around. I remember when he arrived in T-Town. It was such a great day; his arrival was paramount. He is the GOAT.
Coach Saban is a very humble man. That’s one reason why he’s so great.. enjoy your retirement sir you deserve it, you left with legacy and a dynasty. I don’t know if any coach will ever surpass his record. You will be missed…Roll Tide!!
The success WE'VE had. Powerful
Love you, Nick Saban. Thanks for all the memories you gave us, Alabama fans, and what you brought to college football. To the greatest of all time.❤❤. Roll Tide Roll.
A awesome man. Beautiful spirit. And the best teacher and the Goat coach. He cares for all. Make a positive difference for everyone!
