Alabama Crimson Tide extend football coach Nick Saban's deal through 2028 season
Nick Saban, who has led Alabama's football program to six national championships, has been rewarded with a contract extension that will take him through the Crimson Tide's 2028 season, the university announced Monday.
The new agreement will extend his current contract by three seasons to eight years. Saban is set to make $8.425 million this coming season, and his new deal will include annual increases in salary that sources told ESPN would take his average annual salary to more than $10 million over the life of the contract. As part of Saban's new deal, he will receive a contract completion benefit of $800,000 payable at the end of the 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025 contract years.

Saban, who will turn 70 in October, told ESPN last season that retirement has yet to even cross his mind and that he plans to coach as long as he's "physically able and making a positive impact on the players and the program."
Saban added to ESPN, "I don't know what the hell I would do if I wasn't coaching. I don't even want to imagine it."

Hey, if he coaches into his mid 80s he could break you know who's 409 record, 154 more wins would be very obtainable for him in 14 or so more years.

He may try, but CFB will continue to change and turn into more like the NFL, and I wonder if a coach of his age and from a different time would be willing to keep up with recruiting, transfer portal, NIL, losing assistants yearly, etc. But then again, he's surprised many and continued to keep up and actually stay a step ahead. And the SEC will continue to prop him up as long as he's successful

Head Coach
Saban’s adapted every step of the way and I’m sure he’ll find a way to do it again.

But I doubt Bama lets him slip and has an interim in place. I can see a smooth coaching transition like at OU or OSU or even Coach K at Duke. I can't see at 78 coaching, I'm sure stranger things have happened, and feel free to call me out on this post in 2029.

Inside Nick Saban's Coaching Rehab: Resurrecting careers at Alabama, one sullied coach at a time
Coaches are joining the Crimson Tide as damaged goods and coming out clean with big opportunities on the other side
Nick Saban paused. He had been asked if compassion ever entered into his hiring philosophy. It is now to the point that a significant foundation of his crimson empire has been built by those on the rebound. You know their names: Kiffin, Sark, Locksley.
There's many others you know and even more you may not. Sure, they were all talented coaches at one point, but they each also had issues before coming to Alabama.
Saban hired them despite those issues, often at times when few others would.
So, in the college football's cold and cutthroat world, did one man's empathy shine through?
Saban chose his words carefully. Perhaps even "The Process" has its limitations.
"We're always looking for a better way," Alabama's coach said. "Those guys, all good coaches, all did a really good job somewhere along the line before. I'm sure they had their own ambitions of what they wanted to accomplish and what they wanted to do here, whether it was to overcome previous failings or learn from people here."
CBS Sports introduces a three-part series that explores Saban's unprecedented success at reviving coaching careers during his 14 years (and counting) Alabama. That success doesn't seem to be ending anytime soon as Saban recently signed a three-year extension with the Crimson Tide to lead the program through the 2028 season. If he fulfills that contract, he will leave after 22 seasons at age 77.
Five former college head coaches have cycled through Alabama's system over the last eight years, coming out on the other side second chances they were unlikely to have otherwise received. In the case of Steve Sarkisian and Lane Kiffin, it was third chances at being a head coach on this level.
It's part of his coaching tree that extends back to his head coach beginnings at Toledo three decades ago. In January, Sarkisian became the 13th staffer from Saban's Alabama tree alone to become a head coach elsewhere.
"It was perfect," said Kiffin of his three seasons as Alabama offensive coordinator (2014-16). "There wouldn't have been a better job in the NFL. I say [it's] the 'rehab' stamp. You go there, spend some time, all the sudden you can coach again."
Pick your own label, though "Nick Saban's Coaching Rehab" certainly fits.

"My gut reaction is in multiple levels," Shaw said. "First of all, Nick Saban is smarter than any 10 of us in this room combined. And so, there's no way that that was just a throw-in. It's obvious to me — Nick wanted to plant that and make sure people knew that. It's a great way to recruit people to come to you, which the guy hasn't started a college football game and he's already signed a whole bunch of deals to make money. To me, I don't think that's what this whole thing is supposed to be about. I don't believe that that is true market value. I believe that's Alabama value. But that's not market value for an individual, which is what this is supposed to be about.
"I'm not saying it's wrong. In my mind, when I look at this, it is a combination of your personality, who you are and what you've accomplished in order to create opportunities for yourself. And that, to me, is kind of putting the cart before the horse and it's all legal — it's fine now. Nick mentioning that at the media day is a great way to kickstart your recruiting, especially if you're recruiting another high-caliber quarterback — as we all know that they are. So it wasn't accidental. Many of us around college football just shrugged our shoulders and said, 'Is this really what we want to be doing?' I wonder about the people who are engaging in high-value deals like that — because I know a lot of business people and I wonder what the return is on that investment. That's a major investment. This is a high-dollar-value investment. What are they getting back from that? Because over time, that's not a wise thing to do, business-wise, is to give a college athlete a whole bunch of money, if you're not getting anything in the immediate return.
"So as many people, like kind of chuckled when I saw that. There will be very few people around the country that will have those opportunities. And I wonder, too, after this era right now — this year where these things happen — if people will continue to do that going forward, because I still wonder, 'What do you get back from giving a student-athlete a whole bunch of money? Does that help your business?' If it does, great. But if that's not a great business model for you, then how is that sustainable? So that's part of what we all knew was going to happen. There are going to be a few of those stories over this year. My guess is there will be fewer of those stories in the following year. There will be more, in particular, those juniors and seniors that are established, that have a chance to go on to do something beyond college football — those, to me, are the ones that will have those deals. Not guys who haven't started a game yet."

Nick Saban broke out a classic after Wednesday’s practice.
The Alabama head coach wasted no time in trying to get a message across to his football team at the midway point of Mercer game week. He recalled using the now-famous term “rat poison” after a 27-19 road win at Texas A&M in 2017, which is basically where players listen to outside noise about how good they are instead of the schools of thought Saban preaches.
