Alabama head coach Nick Saban, who has been prone to wanderlust in the past, will certainly be pursued by NFL teams this offseason, but several sources close to him believe the odds of his returning to the NFL are remote.
Saban had a brief and pedestrian tenure as head coach of the Dolphins prior to returning to the college game, and, if anything, according to those who have discussed the situation with him, perhaps the chance to rebuild another NCAA program (Texas, who went hard after him a few years ago) might appeal to him on some level, while leaving for the NFL right now is even less likely.
