Legendary Alabama head coach Nick Saban retires 6-0 against Kentucky

Legendary Alabama football head coach Nick Saban retired from coaching on Wednesday, ending his legendary career that also included six wins over Kentucky.

Saban, aged 72, finishes his career with seven National Championships, six of which were with the Crimson Tide, 11 SEC Championships and a 292-71-2 record on top of the collegiate game.

Prior to the Tide he also won a National Championship with the LSU Tigers (2003) and briefly coached the Miami Dolphins in the NFL.

After his stint with the Dolphins was unsuccessful, Saban returned to the college game to take over the Crimson Tide where he became the first head coach since Gene Stallings (1992) to win a National Championship.
