Polarizing ex-Auburn football HC flexes on Nick Saban while addressing NIL

“Earlier this month, college football lost the greatest coach college sports has ever seen: Coach Nick Saban,” Tuberville prefaced before saying, “His retirement was treated with the gravity of a funeral by Alabama fans and by football fans around the country.”

“Coach Saban’s achievements may never be surpassed: seven National Championships and 11 SEC Championships. I’m proud to call Coach Saban a great friend and a fierce competitor, and I’m also proud to be the only coach to beat Saban four times and one of the only coaches to have a winning record against him.”
