Nick Saban Admits What 'Breaks His Heart' Regarding Former Players

He's been buying rosters forever and now that his game has been exposed, he's losing. Other schools are buying up the talent just as much now and he's not a good enough coach to deal with parity. Last year he attacked his own fans for daring to embrace the same standards he demanded just a few years prior. And now it's his former players. Yikes, just retire, man.

The fricker isn’t retiring. Don’t get your hopes up.

Just fricking retire already

Breaking news: Nick Saban claims he has a heart.

On his way out. The only thing breaking his heart is others catching up to him.

It was easy when you could buy the top athletes and nobody would investigate. A lot harder when everyone can do it. Saban will never dominate again.

Saban-speak to call out players by proxy.

He knows with the xfer portal and NIL that he can no longer directly control his players so he's using indirect peer pressure and pretending to be the good cop.

That or hes legitimately gone soft .

Sounds like a clear message to former players not to come bother him. lol

What a puss

This is bullshite, Saban doesn’t have a heart.

Put the foot on Bama and his throat next year and he'll retire. Sweep the leg. Finish it.

Am I the only one who thought this would be about his former players committing horrible crimes?

"When former players come back to me, it hurts my heart"

Nick Saban hates his former players.

It's refreshing seeing him dumped on and having a "bad" season. He's going to hang it up soon, if not this season.

Oh boo hoo

Where was his heart at when he put winning above assaulting 120lbs college girls?

Again, this is not a message meant for anyone other than his current players. What Saban is actually saying is that his current team is not playing to the standard and this is his way of calling them out.

Not when they punch women?

Who knew he had a heart?

Cry me a river
