Don't be sad that he left, be glad that he was here.

I learned a lot of lessons that I use in my daily life from CNS.

I love him as much as you can love a person you havent met. The GOAT, and a class act. There will not be another.

No coach may ever in history replicate the success he had in college football and we were here to experience it.

And what school will have two goats walk the sideline? It’s been amazing!

I was blessed enough to get to share all but '22 and '23 with my father before he passed. He grew up in the Bear years and as his mind went from early onset Alzheimers he became obsessed with watching bama games, watching recordings of past games all of the time. I am forever grateful for the joyous memories I've had celebrating national championships with my dad, first living at home and then over the phone when I moved away to the Capstone.

I grew up in the 70’s and thought being in the title hunt every year was normal. I was too young to understand how lucky I was to have experienced it. This time around I didn’t make that mistake. I enjoyed every year of it knowing that one day it would end. When people would ask me what are you going to do when Saban leaves, I always said the following. Thanks for the ride coach. It was amazing.
