The father of Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young still has a bone to pick with former Alabama Crimson Tide head coach Nick Saban.

But Alabama basketball head coach Nate Oats was still able to point to the results from legendary Alabama football head coach Nick Saban when trying to teach and direct his team this week after a "disgusting" home loss to Ole Miss on Tuesday.

On Tuesday, the Crimson Tide finished with more turnovers, 21, than field goals made, 20. With the turnover margin so stark, the Rebels attempted 23 more shots while also holding Alabama to just three offensive rebounds. The Crimson Tide grabbed 23 offensive boards against Texas A&M .

Before he was “The Ruler” of NXT and winner of the NXT Championship and the NXT North American Championship, he was Isaac Odugbesan of Nigeria who joined the Middle Tennessee State track team before transferring to Alabama, where he won the 2021 SEC indoor and outdoor shot put titles and defended his indoor title the following year.

The Ole Miss Rebels are hoping to keep their positive momentum going on Saturday when they face the Mississippi State Bulldogs.

At 4 p.m. CT on Wednesday, Jan. 10, 2024, Nick Saban began a meeting with his Alabama football team, announcing a decision he’d made just minutes before. At 4:06 p.m., ESPN’s Chris Low tweeted the news to the masses.

And despite Kirk Herbstreit and McAfee insisting that Saban loves the banter and was just joking, Gillis felt that Saban grew legitimately angry once he repeated the SEC joke and called the legendary head coach “Alabama Jones.” (Warning: The video contains strong language).

One year to the day of retiring his post from Alabama football, coach Nick Saban was announced as the newest inductee of the College Football Hall of Fame. Saban was named as the first inductee of the 2025 College Football Hall of Fame class during ESPN's "College GameDay" before the College Football Playoff semifinal between Ohio State and Texas.
