Wait. What?

Every single time there’s a head coaching vacancy in East Rutherford, Saban’s name is mentioned and rightfully so. Not only is he the most successful NCAA coach, he does have NFL experience and, perhaps more importantly than that, he’s been on the Giants’ radar for a decade.

Prior to hiring Ben McAdoo, there was talk that the Giants wanted to hire Saban to replace Tom Coughlin, and then Bruce Arians said Saban “covets” the Giants job prior to the team hiring Pat Shurmur.

Is any of that true? Who knows for sure, but if it is, then expect to see Saban’s name pop up again this year.
