There is no word on how long Nick Saban will actually coach in Tuscaloosa as his track record indicates he likes to move around a lot (since 2000, he has coached for Michigan State, LSU, Miami Dolphins, and Alabama). However, the University of Alabama has found a way to immortalize Coach Nick Saban by the form of bronze.
The University will unveil a bronze statue in his honor for winning the national championship game against Texas. The statue will be placed in the Walk of Champions plaza at Bryant-Denny Stadium with a dedication ceremony to be heldĀ this August.
Coach Saban will be in good company as he will be the fifth coach memorialized for winning a national championship for the Crimson Tide. The four other coaches are Wallace Wade, Frank Thomas, Paul “Bear” Bryant, and Gene Stallings.
Congratulations to Coach Saban.
