After four National Championships and four SEC Championships, Nick Saban is essentially royalty in Alabama. Perhaps more important is the context of his winning ways. If you don’t recall, let me hold your hand as we take a stroll down memory lane.
You see, Saban guided the Alabama football program from its darkest days. After an era of Alabama football led by Gene Stallings and hallmarked by a National Championship in 1992, Alabama turned to three different Mikes – Mike DuBose, Mike Price and Mike Shula – to take the wheel.
