You are assuming Saban knew he was retiring before the season began.
By his own admission, he was torn between staying or retiring five minutes before the final team meeting.

I wouldn't necessarily take him at his word on this...I am sure he has been thinking about retirement for a while, and when he bought that nice house in Florida, he probably started thinking about it more...

I believe what Saban said about his retirement, a lot of it, is media-friendly BS. I don't for one second believe Saban decided to retire after a phone call with his wife 5 minutes before a team meeting the same day after he'd been interviewing potential future staff members.
