I'm just amazed at how saban always seems to replace coaches with even better coaches he even makes the coaches better seems like the man was just born to be a football coach period
2022 Nick Saban the winner of the Nick Saban Award
Nick Saban brings a culture of winning and humility.
If he couldn’t get the recruits why is he doing so well at Alabama. He’s had the number one recruiting class for a number of years and it is because he’s created a culture of winning
@Patrick Bateman 🤦🏽♂️ this comment makes no sense because he’s recruiting against Georgia LSU, Texas A&M, Florida, and whoever else in the South
And make real men
@Patrick Bateman Wrong, because he was developing his coaching, getting better each year. Eventually, he would have dominated Mich. and Ohio St. because once he won 10 or 11 games, he would have started getting the recruits, then he wins 12 games, a coach like that never goes backwards, Jim Harbaugh can't change, hes stuck with the Pro-set and Defense, that will not win in college now. Saban is adaptable, you want to run HUNH fast pace BS, well, we will do it also, and we have better athletes than you. What you miss is Mich. St. got better with Saban, then after he left, they kept a pretty good football team for the next 20 or so years, not great every year, but he changed the culture, it just takes longer at a Mich. St. than it does at an LSU or a Bama. When you win, the athletes will come.
You just a hater lol
He's a perfectionist who loves the craft of bringing out perfection in others.
Coach Saban knows where and when to play a player. Derrick Henry - Had a 2000 yard season in HS and I think 8000+ overall in HS. Coach Saban recruited Henry at RB. Tom Lugenbill at ESPN downgraded him because he said Derrick Henry would be moved to linebacker. A Heisman and a 2000 yard season later, Derrick Henry leaves as an RB. NOW? Derrick Henry just ran for 2000 in the NFL. So, he is the only RB ever to run for 2000 yards in a season in HS, College, and the NFL, No one else has ever done that.
Man is a beast no doubt, only idiot we ould say move him to lb
Bellichick,Saban,Pop, ACTIVE Coaches that will be talked about for decades, The dominance is unreal.
Smh how do you leave Adam Gase off that list you clearly don’t watch football 🤦🏿♂️
Pop lol
“I’m about to popabitch”
@@thesly74 Pop has 5 championships as a coach so I don’t get what’s funny about what he said
@@jonjones8819 the decades part.
It's good to be a champion
Yes it is.
Saban is the GOAT!
I didn't like Saban before this video but I had to respect what he has done. Listening to these two dudes who I have much respect for just put it in perspective for me. Marcus said what I always felt about Saban and that is he has had so much awesome talent to work with that has made his job a little easier.
Dont forget he had too win too get all these recruits and that's what's mad this job easier lol.
Nick Saban is a Bad Man
Playing for Nick Saban is just a lot of winning, not much losing. That's why Saban is such a good coach.
Such a great brand that attracts great talent. Doesn’t develop talent for the NFL especially qbs . Just rides off the backs of talent. Great manager of talent tho
Great coach 🤦🏾♂️ or great manger of talent. Doesn’t develop talent . Where’s his qbs at in the nfl
@@43VirginiaSlim I'm not an Alabama fan, but I admire there talent and Nick Saban's ability to produce championship's.
@@43VirginiaSlim It doesn't matter where his Qbs ended up in the NFL. During their time at Alabama they were great. Other great players who are stars in the nfl like Derrick Henry, Josh Jacobs, Julio jones, Dont'e Hightower etc.
@@exeaglesbandwagon5318 produce champions . You mean wear teams down in the second half because they don’t have the quality of subs like Alabama
I don't know what happened at Michigan st,lsu,Miami but thank all you guys ROLLLLL TIDE
Switching you to defense turned out to be a pretty good move, eh Marcus?
2:05 "Why can't you do it in the f'n game!" lol.
You got it. Word-for-word.
😂🤣 I didn’t know what you were talking about but you right
We do at Bama, finish
Nick's the 🐐 GOAT
.....
And u can't but help to give him his props....
He has top staff and 4th stringers who can start anywhere else
He created this culture where everyone wants to coach and play for him
Now with that said......
HAIL STATE 😜
Best college coach of all time. Would love to see him go to the NFL one more time. He wasn't great at Miami, but he did improve them. They went from 4 wins to 9 wins and would have done well had Daunte Culpepper stayed healthy.
He will retire at Alabama. Has already said he has no desire to try the NFL again
His time at Miami is pretty underrated to be honest
Very very well said by these 2 Cerebral guys.
Ryan would be an excellent Coach!!
Sark was a good oc but if you think he is not gonna upgrade to someone better yall are all crazy
@Oworks sark wasn’t the oc when we had ridley it was the patriots offensive coordinator who has 5 rings
Yeah, coach Saban has saved Alabama millions of dollars in bye outs by winning, coaches here dont leave by being pushed out and being bought out, unless you consider other teams buying them out from under Alabama. If this didnt happen, who else out there would there be to rehabilitate some coaches while giving other great coaches a chance to win a national title and coach top quality players that they otherwise would not haven't had the chance to be around and develop.
Sark creates his offense around the players he has ..... his offensive schemes were brilliant but not the ones he will use with players having different skill sets. If Saban ever losses a game to one of his assistants, Sark is the most likely candidate. Texas recruiting has had some significant grabs in last few weeks and I expect Texas will slowly move up in the rankings year to year because he's there
The GOAT!!! Best ever!!!
He is a good person

Dayyyuuummm
I see you ryan
I'm not sure if everyone understood that but success is not certain. You have to continue to work towards it and work for it. In regards to your career or sports. You can apply this philosophy and psychology. You must apply these principals and "buy in" Surround yourself with those who see your vision. The grind is real and your work ethic each and everyday applies. Action speaks louder than words.
The 🐐
Most coaches follow their own path
Nick Saban Goat
The 👑 of Alabama and LSU 🐘🐯🔴🟣. Saban is the 🐐
Geaux Tigers
5:53 BIG MAN BALLIN
42nd comment Alabama needs to win playoff next year.
Flossy B that’s my hometown GUY! Ryan I met your mother at Regular bc in Gretna la!
Marcus Spears is my dude...speaking the truth!
That jacket rocks
This is the first time he’s one coach of the year at bama?? Wow lol didn’t know that
No he has won it twice now
But only once at Bama
They give it to coaches who do better than expected, they expect him to win most games
Saban has a plug and play system.
So does Texas tech and look at Mahomes now and Texas Tech now
You missed a step. Saban has a plug, play, and win system.
What about Duke and Kentucky in basketball? They’ve been dominating that sport for a long time. I’ve never cried!!! Until someone beats them or out does them they deserve it!
Also Marcus needs to think about what he said. The amount of talent he’s had, (not only at LSU), but Tuscaloosa).? Come on Marcus!!! He had some great players at LSU, but do you know how many years and players he’s had a Bama? 😂
GOAT
Love the coat!
Geaux Tigers! Roll Tide Roll! 🐯🐘
how many espn shows do you have to be on as an analyst if you are working from home?
I think they all on the same zoom call
Roll tide
My Favorite Coach in Football. Him and Washington Husky Coach!
The problem is coaches are using it for their promotions and then do nothing with it
Last year y’all two was talking crazy when LSU won where that energy at fellas
Everybody wants to be like Nick.
I imagine it is fun winning titles
So you have 8000 players that you could get that played at Alabama and you got these two. I want to hear more recent
Neither played at Alabama
Just let the top players start going somewhere and let’s see how good he is.
Top players will go to Saban cause he is great. Keep dreaming he is great cause he gets good players pancakes them great, why would they go to losing programs ?
You can choose Alabama or choose the team that will lose to Alabama.
🐘🐘🐘🐘🐐🐐🐐🐐
How this guy hasn't won the Bryant award 6 or 7 times is a travesty. He's won TWO...TWO...but he's the greatest coach. SMDH.
it’d be like seeing the same face in the employee of the month frames… gotta let a few others in to keep it somewhat balanced. but we all know
Rolltide
if you dont have the players.....
This is what I preach to my workers all the time. The Saban method. You don't win with an attitude of mediocrity. Complacency will lead you to failure.
That's why he has a melt down when his coaches and players lose focus and get complacent. 🤙🏾
It’s crazy to think he’s one 7 National Champoinships but only 2 undefeated teams
Good competition 🤷♂️
@Danny DNA I know but with how Nick Saban hates losing more than winning and how good his teams have been you would think more than just 2 were undefeated.
The rest of the country jealous of the sec
He is a great recruiter. But the dominance of Alabama isn't something to be upset at Alabama for. But it's something that shows a bigger spot light on needing a more involved playoffs. You can tell that they are going to put the same teams in there as often as they can. So the rhetorical question is, is the ncaa in football that lopsided or are they just avoiding having teams that won't have the same level of dedicated fans that travel to bowl games?
That year they purposely left out UCF was especially telling.
They are in there because they are the best teams, guy. This ain't hard. You just don't like it. God, I'm tired of socialist football. #5-8 had a great season. Doesn't mean they earned access to natl championship shot. And we don't need another post - season layer in which to incur more crippling injuries (Trey Sermon, D. Smith, Justin fields, etc...just in two games.)
@@teller1290 Now how'd you get the conclusion that it's something I don't like when I just stated that it's a lame way of deciding who should be in a national championship? It's hardly any better than what they had before they only selected 4 teams. Keep selecting the same small amount of teams without any consideration to other regions or areas just to have a blow out.
It needs a better playoff or just admit that college football is that lopsided.
@@gregorylagrange of course it's lopsided. Excellence does that. You wanna have lopsided "fixed." Then have USC, Oregon, Miami, Oklahoma State, Texas A&M decide like the top programs did...generations ago...to build great programs. Don't solve lopsided by creating a circus at the end of the year, mimicking March Madness (which, btw, also makes a mockery of that sport's reg season...but we're all so used to it that we don't notice anymore), and hoping to create a pathway for a team that didn't earn they it's season to run around with two or three losses claiming to be #1.
I guess for some that's improvement, but for me I'd dred it. Which means that's exactly what'll happen...and soon. Herby will cry some more and that'll be it...8 teams, then 16 teams (lots of 9-3, couple 8-4 all "vying for #1." What a joke.
@@teller1290 So pick the same teams over and over and get the same results? You trying to make the claim that I find it better to have a more involved playoff sounds like your own argument applies to you. That you don't like the idea that maybe there are teams that should be playing for a title but you're afraid of losing a position.
It would be easy to have conference champions play in a playoff or have 8 teams play. The joke is making a claim that it's a national championship when they've made it clear that some areas are not going to be considered at all. It's no different than when they put up such huge resistance to get away from the bowl games. That's what was really meaningless. To just create another bowl game whenever they want.
But yet div II manages to have a playoffs.
@@gregorylagrange they're EARNING IT. Used to mean something.
Anybody that knows football knows this man has the best brand in college football and he just rides the wave of his talent
🤔
Hater
@@jreamscape emotional punk. Stop look and think . Stop being a fan boy and so emotional
Who is Flossy B, somebody help me?
Using a Trey Wingo voiceover is pretty shady considering that they fired him...
But will nick have that success in the nfl ?
Nobody cares.
Not relevant
2017 Scott Frost won award AND the National Championship thank you very much 😤
Here for the UCF national title comments
The earth is flat 🚫🌎👁
Kyrie that you? Lmao
💯👍
😂
@@durango8882 Take the time to research it.
As long as that bagman brings the cash on time Bama gonna roll on......😜👌
If it's that easy then Harvard (with, by far, the most financial endowments) should be a National Championship winner every year. No, you don't understand the process.
This statement is getting old. Proof
Transitions to the next level not translate
So now we rename the bear Bryant award the nick saban award 🥇
Best team MONEY can buy.
You hate capitalism, boy?
I hear your mama is a starter
The ambitious shark qualitatively sprout because buffer comprehensively hope circa a defective hammer. ablaze, sad tulip
The discreet almanac coincidingly thaw because brace fortuitously glow amongst a cormorant. fixed, nasty bow
Man gets to pick the best team on Madden each year and people act like he the best coach ever
Did he do it in 2019 2017 2014 he as not always been in National championships or won every year but he’s the most consistent year after year at getting to the CFP
imagine hateing on alabama beacuse they successful
@@quintonchapman1776 He always has top tier recruits stop it. He good but all time great??? Come on mane
@@datsapaddlin go play Warcraft
@@zackhayes1268 I’m playin wit ya mama tonight
Sorry coaches are the ones that hold grudges and not putting players in the right place to win.
huh?
Mark Ingram was better than Derek Henry in college.. so was Trent Richardson
Alabama Saban RBs ranked:
1.henry
2. n Harris
3. Ingram
4. Richardson
@@inlinechris where's Eddy Lacy?
In what way lol definitely not statistics 🤣
glad TEXAS got sarkisian maybe some of saban can rub off this way.
A bit obvious with the Alabama/Saban propaganda.
😂😂😂 a bit obvious that your team is trash and you’re a hater
I honestly think the NCAA is going to do away with recruiting and have some sort of hybrid draft. At least for the top Maybe 40 teams or something like that. Because it's getting to the point where it's too much. Players are afraid to play them you can see it the way they tackle them. You can see it the way Alabama ball-carriers bust through there like a grenade just hit or something. It's to the point where it's a bit much. I'm happy for Alabama and the fans and everything minus all the Nazis that live down there but regardless it's too much man it's too much. At some point every one of their players will be five star. And nobody seems like they really want to stop them. The guy will literally try to rack up 15 rings or something like that. They need to be stopped.
We aren't a bunch of Nazis down here, please don't show your ignorance to the world.
I've lived in Alabama for 25 of my 35 on earth. And I live in deep south alabama where peanuts are king and cows out number people... I've never met a nazi.. I've met a few dumb, illiterate racist hicks, but never a nazi.... And don't worry, those dumb ones all live in the same trailer park and smoke meth, they pose no challenge, and are overdosing their way out.
@@bfg5291 Yep got some of those in North Al. But also got some in every State. The worst I've ever experienced was in one of the States bordering Canada.
No
I wish young men would smarten up and go to other programs... Alabama is a sketchy program.. He learned from Bill
Y’all love praising these Planation Overseers...
@@jasontuscaloosa I’m sure you wish it was 1619 all over again...
Man what
Tf you talkin bout?
And they both sucked. Ryan Clark was trash.
1:08 you got to Coordinate 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
If you play for Saban, you better be prepared to win as he hates losing one game!
