It wasn’t always trophies and confetti during Najee Harris’ time at Alabama. There were several occasions early on where he and Nick Saban weren’t close to seeing eye to eye.
During an appearance on The Pivot Podcast, the Pittsburgh Steelers running back shared that he and Saban did not get off on the right foot early on at Alabama.
Harris explained that he felt as if Saban was going beyond coaching at points and going as far as saying he felt “belittled” by the seven-time national champion.
“Me and Saban man, we did not get along at first,” Harris said.
