This video right here is just one example of why parents send their children to go play with this man.

[@rochellehutchison4093]

I totally agree

[@Failedstateofcali]

Facts. I’m not a fan of alabama but I respect Nick saban. His character and respect is outstanding

[@sammylacks4937]

​​@@Failedstateofcali I ve noticed this trend among all of rival schools and my thanks and respects to you and all that comment this way.

[@JRTwinkie]

Absolutely love this, wish more coaches had the guts to do this.

[@MafiaReject]

Back again watching this 2 years later

[@TheGingerExpress243]

Auburn fan here, but Nick Saban is an absolute leader of men

[@gaijinfishing]

He gets it... Just earned some respect from me with that stance.

[@ABSVabeautifulsunsetvlog]

That's COACH Saban to you.....much respect coach....

[@10PIECECOMBO]

This why he recruits. This is why he wins. There is an SEC High School senior (and his parents) on the fence that just decided to commit to Alabama. I am a UGA loyalist but Bama has the best leader.

[@christopherstevens9488]

He gives them second chances to win another game😂😂😂😂 he suspends them for the Charleston southern game and they are amazing back for the LSU game

[@venom8598]

Christopher Stevens your comment makes no sense look at bamas schedule and who they play before LSU and after

[@christopherstevens9488]

@@venom8598 the Sec is weak as hell. Alabama's cross rivals are 0-2 to Georgia State and BYU.

[@venom8598]

Christopher Stevens btw if it is weak why is LSU, Georgia, Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Texas a&m ranked in the top 25 and having 5 of them ranked in the top 10? Name a conference with more than that please sir

[@Mikevdog]

@@christopherstevens9488 Maybe you should pick the game

I would’ve started CLAPPING. I wish I was there to start an applause for that amazing speech

[@tracywalkin6962]

While this video is 7 years old, I just saw it for the first time thanks to my brilliant son. All I can say is if this philosophy was mandatory for every person in a position of authority our world would be a much better place. To the people who have ever made a mistake and needed a second chance, I can only hope you’ve had someone like Nick Sabin in your corner. #GreatManGreatCoach

[@braddavid902]

Yeah it’s easy to give your best players a second chance. You think he would give a walk on a chance?

[@jacobybryant9002]

Saban is an absolute beast. I love this!!

[@maneeshrajagopal2064]

Gained so much respect for saban from this

[@jb3849]

Not only a genius coach a genius psychologist and a man management master

[@davidcamarillo2841]

He is not only arguably one of GOATs but a tremendous person who cares about people...amazing Coach!!

[@ericd693]

The greatest football coach ever who is also a phenomenal human being . Someone grant me a wish to meet this man !

[@DellMoney_]

This entire press conference is forever etched in my mind The most memorable Saban moment ever Enjoy that retirement coach

This is why people love this guy!

[@goldfish1786]

Na more FATHERS need this attitude out there More MEN need this attitude Not enough people have life experience to understand what others go through Especially at a young age

[@PowerIsWithin]

Love this

[@rhaynes46]

Saban did this with Coaches too.

[@sportsfan4153]

I'd run thru a brick wall for him. And I've never played a snap of competitive football in my life.

[@vromanov]

Keep thinking about Maurice Clarett when I see this. He needed a coach like this

Hard not to be pulling for Saban after seeing this

“Do you want to condemn them or have their children go to Princeton”? Didn’t mention a lavish life for one’s own, but mentioned what it could do for a generation. Say what you want about the man, family is imperative to him.

[@James-hn4ik]

Nick Saban is embellishing this story about Muslin Muhammad. It was actually Mohammed’s prior coach at Michigan State, George Perles, who didn’t kick him off the team after the gun possession incident. Muhammad played for Perles and continued to play when Saban got the Michigan State job.

Message to the cancel culture....looking for punishments but no corrections

[@brmo6232]

Or drug laws and putting people away for their first crime

Don’t compare this shit to cancel culture, yes sometimes it gets too far but I wouldn’t want my kids alone in a room with Harvey Weinstein or Kevin Spacey

[@sammylacks4937]

Couches Saban , Stallings and Bryant were more about education and graduation than anything. Sure they want and guide players to standout on the field but not at the demise of curriculum.

[@braxtonwhite3579]

How about a guy at 21 who made a mistake

[@chriskill08]

give him a second chance if he made his first infraction

[@worlfsker13]

we all gonna make mistakes no matter how old we are

[@chiefsosa8123]

[@achildsheart4658]

I think the principle is about restoring. Consequences, punishment, should come but how are we giving opportunities to restore and redeem. You can tell when someone is putting forth the effort to redeem themselves. Punish but restore if they don’t want to cut them.

[@rayo5826]

Same shit
