Nick Saban is embracing retirement and showing CFB fans a more relaxed side of himself after a stellar 50-year coaching career, with 17 of those spent in Tuscaloosa.
Known for his workaholic nature, Saban's newfound relaxation is playing golf. Saban's daughter, Kristen Saban, shared an adorable snapshot of the 72-year-old coach enjoying a round of golf with his grandson James.
"Never would I have imagined that on a random Tuesday in the middle of the day, I get to hang out with my dad. Retirement is bliss," Kristen wrote in caption.
Even though Saban has officially retired, he recently expressed his commitment to contributing to college football's development. The legendary coach talked about continuing his connection to Alabama, saying:
"That's our home, that's our family, it's our community. We're going to continue to do things to help the community in every way we can."
Saban continues to maintain a presence at Bryant-Denny Stadium, where he has an office. Alabama's athletics director, Greg Byrne, confirmed Saban's ongoing role as an advisor.
