Am I the only one hoping Saban announces his retirement in the coming days/weeks? What more can motivate the man? I'm just ready for us to get back on that level and for the Gump's dynasty to crumble.

it's really not fun

he should embrace a new challenge or retire.. let someone else have a chance.

it's a good time. just won.. several key coaches gone, several departures on defense.. come on Saban, give someone else a chance..

Honestly while I want that to happen there is no way. With his personality I can't see him just retiring. To do what? Relax? Saban doesn't know how to relax.

I think it is wishful thinking mostly. He now has a chance to go on and try to equal Bear Bryant's record of 6 NC, and even beyond to beat the record.
Saban is a very driven coach, and when he finally decides to retire, it will be an impossible spot to fill.

When you listen to him speak recently, his comments lead you to believe he has grown tired of some of the bs associated with being a coach, but I don't think it is to the level that will cause him to retire.

He will retire when he can no longer meet his own personal expectations or lacks the energy (or interest) required to meet his expectations. I just don't think he is there yet.

No current plans to retire. As long as he is in coaching, he will be at Bama. The gumps will have him coaching or in administration as long as he has breath. Bear Bryant's brand is fading nationally and Saban has become the new standard bearer (no pun intended) of the Bama brand. They will do whatever it takes to keep him on board.

ZERO!!! The man has no life. He is a humorless, A-Hole who has only football in his life.

4 Natty's in 7 yrs? Saban will only leave when his System/Strategy/Influence gets corrupted, until then, we will ALWAYS have to go through BAMA to get to the NC,

Zero. I want LSU to beat Bama when Bama is at their best not on the downside.

You hear how many times they said "true freshman" last night with guys making big plays for bama?

They'll be back in that game multiple times within the next 4 years, nick isn't retiring until he passes the bear

I'm sure DALSU has the scoop on "Saban to retirement."
