Nick Saban turns 65 in October, but heavy is the head that wears the CFP crown. The five-time national title winner is starting to see his age used against him in recruiting.
From espn.com:
"I’m not looking to get out. I’m really not, even though I know that’s going to start being talked about more now,” said Saban, who’s entering his 10th season at Alabama. “What I have noticed is that it’s the first time people are starting to say to recruits, ‘He won’t be there the whole time you’re there,’ because of my age. Does that really impact your ability to stay good? I don’t know. But if it did, it would make you say, ‘Well, what’s up with this?’ My philosophy is that I’m going to be here for as long as I feel like I can be effective, impact the players, help them be more successful in life and continue to have a successful program.”
If you read between the lines here it's clear Saban plans to live (and coach) until he's 300 years old.
