When it comes to Nick Saban’s accomplishments, he’s already in rare air in just about every way imaginable. From repetitive No. 1 recruiting classes to national championships, he’s redefining the standards by which every future college football coach will be judged.
O.J. Howard has a chance to give him another milestone.
Heading into this season, Saban had a player named an All-American at every position minus one, and nearly all had been at the University of Alabama.
That position, of course, was tight end, and the Crimson Tide head coach might never again have this good of a chance to complete the set.
