It was announced on Wednesday afternoon that legendary Alabama head coach Nick Saban will retire from football.
Saban led Alabama to six national championships at Alabama and one with LSU, cementing himself as the greatest college football coach of all time.
With all due respect to coach Saban, his retirement could not have come at a better time for the Texas Longhorns.
Texas will now enter the SEC in 2024 with one less powerhouse, assuming Alabama doesn’t continue its reign as one of the top colleges in football. The Longhorns beat Alabama in 2023, signaling one of the few times Saban has lost at home. Now, Texas doesn’t have to worry about the legendary coach haunting them.
Here is how Nick Saban’s retirement could impact the Texas Longhorns moving forward.
