During a Monday morning interview on the "Mac and Cube" show in Birmingham, former Alabama quarterback and current Saban coworker Greg McElroy said he spoke to someone who is adamant Saban will return to the college football ranks.

Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer needs the rumor of Nick Saban returning to coaching like a drowned man needs a drink. Hugh Freeze needs it even less.

Kalen DeBoer said he thought former Alabama football coach Nick Saban was enjoying his current role with ESPN.

Here's why the former Alabama quarterback believes the 73-year-old, seven-time national champion will return to the sidelines.

Saban, who coached Alabama to six national championships from 2009-20, retired after the 2023 season. Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin said Monday that he thought Saban might even be back this season.

Former Alabama QB Greg McElroy made news at SEC Media Days on his radio show stating people in the know think Nick Saban might coach again. Then he was surprised that comment went viral?

Greg McElroy Sets the Record Straight on Nick Saban’s Return After Stirring Speculation originally appeared on Athlon Sports. There was one big question on everybody's mind during the first day of the annual SEC Football Media Days on Monday, and that was whether or not the legendary Nick Saban would return to coaching.

Nick Saban and Urban Meyer ruled an era of college football that has sunsetted. Could they thrive in this landscape? Probably.

Four years without a national championship feels like a severe drought for veteran Alabama players. Similarly, one year of missing the College Football Playoff has second-year coach Kalen DeBoer feeling the pressure to restore the Crimson Tide's status as one of the nation's top teams in 2025.
