Alabama's former coach is stealing the show at SEC Media Days.
ESPN commentators Nick Saban, right, and Greg McElroy speak during the Southeastern Conference NCAA college football media days Wednesday, July 17, 2024, in Dallas. Nick Saban’s desire to remain ever present in college football despite retiring as a coach has created a peculiar situation for Alabama football here at SEC Media Days.
It puts DeBoer in a tough spot, and the new coach from the West Coast was already going to be unfairly scrutinized as the guy tasked with following the GOAT.On Monday, Saban was the focus of SEC Media Days. On Tuesday, it was much the same. He then overshadowed DeBoer’s big day as Alabama’s coach and directed attention elsewhere — on himself and for teams like new SEC member Texas.I’m beginning to think that Saban’s new role for ESPN might make things even more difficult for DeBoer.
Those former Saban assistants all lack something that DeBoer uses to his advantage. DeBoer is different. How does Morgan give Alabama an edge in the SEC? I asked Alabama offensive lineman Tyler Booker about it on Wednesday.
