One of the greatest runs of all time appears to have come to an end. Alabama football head coach Nick Saban is retiring, according to ESPN’s Chris Low.
Saban joined the Alabama program in 2007 and won six national championships and nine SEC titles in Tuscaloosa. Before leading the Crimson Tide, Saban also won a national title and two SEC championships with LSU.
The question of when he would retire has long lingered, but there was strong debate over when it would happen, if at all. According to Low, the answer has come, and it is today, Wednesday, Jan. 10, 2024.
The news comes a little more than a week after Alabama’s 2023 season came to an end in the Rose Bowl College Football Playoff semifinal against eventual national champion Michigan.
Nick Saban is retiring, sources tell ESPN. He won six national titles at Alabama.
