He wasn't able to win national championships before he coached a game at a school like Jimbo Fisher, but he did pretty well IMO.

^ upset because players would rather have a Dodge Charger than go to LSU.

But he couldn't control the game anymore once NIL took his advantage away

I think we’re already seeing Bama will be just fine in the NIL world. I believe Saban realized that the morals of the sport had moved beyond his personal senses, and he decided he was too old to care about adjusting.

Someone hasn't been in the parking lot of the LSU football operations facility, and it shows.

He was 72 years old when he retired. Coaching college football is not a job for old men now days. Currently there is only one head coach over 70 in college football. Mack Brown is 72.

The next closest is Kirk Ferentz at 69.

There are only 16 coaches currently who are 60 years old or older. Brian Kelly is the 10th oldest in the game and he is only 62, ten years younger than Saban.

Father time is why Saban retired. He said so himself. He did not want to be remembered like Bobby Bowden, Joe Paterno or even Bear Bryant are remembered at the end of their careers.

Saban retired with more 5 star recruits at Bama than his former Bama players starting an NFL regular season game.
