I don't think I'm complicated at all. I'm not political, and I'm not trying to be diplomatic. I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings, and I don't say bad things about people. There is no agenda. There's no trying to fool somebody.
Nick Saban

Nick Saban
Focus on the process of what it takes to be successful.
Nick Saban
Mediocre people hate high achievers, and high achievers hate mediocre people.
Nick Saban
Focus on the play like it has a history and a life of its own.
Nick Saban
In the NFL you get one first-round draft pick if you're lucky. You couldn't really outwork anybody else. In college I could recruit ten players with first-round talent every year.
Nick Saban
One thing about championship teams is that they're resilient. No matter what is thrown at them, no matter how deep the hole, they find a way to bounce back and overcome adversity.
Nick Saban
The difference nowadays is that when I go on vacation I work some of the time rather than all of the time.
