Nick Saban isn't exactly the most level-headed coach in college football.
The seven-time national champion is known as one of the sport's most exacting leaders, one who will show his frustration at even the smallest mistakes. When asked Thursday whether this year's Crimson Tide team tested his patience, Saban delivered an incredibly on-brand answer.
“I don't have any patience, so anything that happens is a test of my patience, including sitting in this chair right now,” Saban told the media before Friday's College Football Playoff semifinal. “We sort of anticipate that when we have a successful season and are coming off a successful season, but because we were young, it took this team a little longer to maybe respond on a consistent basis like we wanted them to.
