Senior writer and Alabama insider Charlie Potter just posted the following:

It was business as usual in Tuscaloosa this morning with Nick Saban interviewing several candidates for the vacancies on his coaching staff. There was a routine team meeting planned for this afternoon, and Saban was working up until that point when he informed the team he was retiring, citing his age and health concerns. The team, from the coaches to the players, did not expect that kind of announcement from him today, the first day of classes at Alabama.

Not surprised honestly that Saban was working literally to the end.

He did it the right way and didn’t end up like Bill Belichik who may be pushed out after everything he’s done

health concerns


Proctalgia, caused by other teams being allowed to give players a Dodge Charger.

Yikes. With it coming out of nowhere, I hope that doesn’t point to something bad.

Possibly high blood pressure. Ever since his hip surgery a couple years ago he’s had a woman on the sidelines that seemingly tells him to stay calm when he would get really fired up

Rumor is the health concern is his wife and not him.

Wow, he did screw the early enrolled players. He had this planned probably long ago. Nice screw job going out the door.
