Nick Saban highlights ‘maturity’ for why he likes this Alabama team

He has had many talented teams in 15 years at the University of Alabama.

Nick Saban has also had several veteran teams in his tenure as the Crimson Tide’s head coach.

However, his 16th season looks to provide him with something special.

He returns a talented team and a veteran team, but he mentioned something Thursday on “Hey Coach” that got people’s attention. Saban wants players to have the correct mindset on and off the field. Discipline, responsibility, work ethic, and attention to detail are a few of his core values for young athletes. Saban feels this team has bought into those values.
