It’s hard to know what might sway Nick Saban to retire. But what seems clear is that Alabama isn’t close to done controlling the narrative in college football.

You would not be able to tell that Nick Saban is about to turn 71 this Halloween. He looks a decade younger, he still runs onto the football field with the same vigor he had before doctors replaced his hip a couple years back and there is no evidence that he plans on walking away anytime soon.
Alabama, in fact, is actively taking commitments from blue-chip recruits who won’t even enroll until 2024, which would put Saban several steps closer to 80 by the time they’re eligible for the NFL draft.
