Nick Saban Retiring? It's Official .. the Goat is gone

[RammerJammer14]

I was absolutely not expecting this. I knew it was coming one day. But damn. End of an era. End of my era. Thanks for everything coach. Hate it ended how it ended. 🙁

The machine that CNS built a LSWho kept chugging right along after he left for a while. Surely we're at least as good as that?

It's a different era now with the portal, but I think (hope) most will still see the structure for success in place at Alabama.

Yeah, I suspect that was already in the works..............so, everyone come down off the ledge and lets see who it is. I think Bama will be fine, as I think Saban had input into who gets the job

I laughed at this at first but reading his followup tweets he either thinks he knows or he is trolling.

I think there's about a 0% chance this wasn't planned and Byrne hasn't already picked the successor.

Somewhat comforting if true. And shocking it could have been held under wraps like this.

I heard he's not retiring. He's finally going to be the head football coach at Texas (because Sark is coming back to Alabama). That's what a friend told me.

Wow. I'm surprised but also not. We knew it would come eventually, just wasn't ready for it today.

Thank you coach for EVERYTHING on and off the field. Greg Byrne has a tough task ahead

Auburn will view this as a day of liberation. Get ready trees!

This is what I get for attending a meeting. I leave the internet for a few hours and this happens. Really bummed me out.

Yeah, 92.9 the game here has predicted a new coach in the next 48 hours.

I’m already into the Angel’s Envy.

I am sick to my stomach. Truly he was the GOAT, and always will be.

He definitely is, but I do hate that he lost to that douchebag at Meatchicken in his final game. Oh well, it was a helluva run!

Already happening.

Pitiful. Bless their hearts!

He will be introduced by Friday imo...

I had not planned on drinking tonight, but I am about to break out the Highland Park 18 year old scotch.
