Alabama Football, Head Coach Nick Saban was named the Paul ‘Bear’ Bryant Coach of the Year for the 2020 college football season.
The first response from many Alabama football fans upon hearing the good news was, “what took you so long?’ Until Wednesday night Nick Saban had never been chosen for the Bryant Award as the Alabama Football, Head Coach. Saban did win it in 2003 as the LSU Head Coach.
The ‘Bryant’ has been awarded every season going back to 1986 when Penn State’s Joe Paterno won the first one.
