I may hate the guy but this is the first time I have actually seen him cry as a sore loser let alone having a heart for other people than himself. He is a good coach but he is an asshole with too much pride. I'm glad he finally opened up about this and finally I can say something good about Saban let alone good details about him. Still Hate Bama.
Coach Saban and Coach Smart both understand that families enteust their young men to them. Not only to develop as players but more importantly to help them develop as men and preparing them for the next phase of their life, be it football or business. The men they help develop are a direct reflection on the coaches. As much as Coach Saban has aggravated me over the years I have nothing but respect for him. In the end I know he will be unbelievably proud of Coach Smart. GO DAWGS!!!!
Go Dawgs! I’m not gonna sit here and lie about bama being overrated like some other sec school fans. I have a lot of respect for Nick and everything he’s built at bama.
Adam, looks like were gonna have us a slobberknocker of an SEC championship game this year!! Can't wait. GOOO DAWGS!! And yes, much respect for coach Saban.
Uncle Lou’s Black lab Georgia came to play. They kicked our butts for 3 qtrs. They deserved to win. But, at the end of the day you have to win. Awesome game.
He's just top of the line. Worth every single nickel. If anybody ever had that "it" factor he does. He's a hellcat but he's also fair.. just a great great individual not withstanding the best college football coach that has ever coached period!!!!
These two great coaches, great recruiters, great player development experts will have one hell of a power struggle over the next few years. Should generate a bunch of interest!
Another Reason for Alabamas greatness was looking back... at Nick and Kirby... we see that they ran through teams and destroyed teams because it's like combining now Georgia and Alabama to create a SUPER TEAM... what do you think would happen if you see how successful Kirby has become in such a short time after branching off from the Alabama empire... now it's like Alabama vs Georgia... once an Alliance, now a foe.. as far a competition... now we get to see was it Kirby that made Alabama that great or how much of it was of Nick because Kirbys Georgia basically looks identical to the Alabama of old , just in different uniforms.....
Lots of mutual respect between these two coaches! I could tell when Smart beat him for the national championship, Saban acted like a super proud father knowing his “son” came out just fine!
I hope Kirby wins all his games except when he plays Alabama! Kirby is great and I'm gonna miss seeing him on the Alabama sidelines, but Saint Nick is the Man! Roll Tide!
You two make up an awesome coaching pair!!! ROLL TIDE Saban has made a great mark in the St. of Alabama that will never be recap by anyone as well (THE BEAR) did too!!! RTR We BLEED CRIMSON !! And so do the tean we are playing that weekend , just in a different way..Bahahaha
I have been both an Alabama fan and a Georgia fan for 50 years. I am glad for Georgia and sad for Bama. I will still Love Coach Smart and hope he wins the East every year so Coach Saban can still show him how to win. Thank you both guys for such a long winning tradition at Alabama. I am just so proud of both of you and may the best team win when you meet on the field of honor !
+MidnightSin It's easy to love two teams. I love LSU and Alabama. I want LSU to win every game it plays all year...except the one to Alabama. I want Alabama to win that one, and then all their other games, too. I was like the only guy in the country who thought the LSU/AL national title rematch game was like the best thing that could ever happen. The whole country hated that rematch situation and I was on cloud nine. :-)
+Dale Dale - I am not really a college football guy, but what happens now to all of those uncommitted "hot" recruits that Coach Kirby Smart has been "cultivating" for Alabama? Do they suddenly wind up playing in Athens instead of Tuscaloosa? Is there some rule on that? Kirby Smart does not look at all stupid to me.
+ennis whalen There are often some rules in the contracts about that. But certainly, sometimes the recruit doesn't care because they want this program, not this coach. Other times, they may have liked the coach so much they will follow them to their new school. Or, they may have liked the coach, but not the new school they went to and will wind up going to a new, third place entirely rather than the original program without the coach they liked or following the coach they liked to a program they don't. It also depends on if they have already signed letters of intent. Those are very clear that you are committing to the institution, NOT the coach. If you've signed one of those and the coach moves, you are basically out of luck.
Kirby WAS… When he covers his left eye 👁 it reminds me of the Scar I have above mine… Or like the Spartan King’s eye in 300 hundred… Or maybe the demon that the King stabbed in the eye right before he cut his head off! 🗡
This is the beginning of the end for Saban. Respect the hell our of him but he knows how good Kirby is and it scares him a little and he also love Kirby.
I wonder if Nick and Bill Belichick have a competition going on with their press conferences. Sabin, “Hey Bill, I’ll see your “On to Cincinnati” and raise you one “ask the Coke bottle...”
There is mutual respect between these two coaches. Kirby learned a lot from Saban, and now has two championships under his own belt. Two damn good coaches!
Now Papa Bear gets to beat Younger Bear on Jan 8th 2018. Look out, er'r damn body, for season 2018 ... many younger fellers/coaches will have more experience and I feel 2018 will be much more competitive than 2017 was. ROLL TIDE ... but if the Dawgs wind up winning ... I won't be completely butt-hurt (for too long). At least that's what I'm telling myself LOL ;o/
Thx for raising him from a pup to a Bulldawg. Enjoy retirement as a best coach in history! Smart will be the only pupal to beat you on the battlefield! Maybe this year, maybe next but the Tide is shifting and all dynasty's must come to an end. Go Dawgs!
Saban respectfully feels sorry for Smart . When you are at the top and under the spotlight. No place for thin skin . At least everyone won't be wanting anyone to beat GA. as they did with Alabama.
Nick "The Saint" Saban. No sh💩t, I honestly believe he could survive a dreaded "Dead Girl, Live Boy" scandal. I mean hell it's Alabama for God's sake, have you seen what they do to their sisters over there, or the family pet if she's sleeping with daddy that night🤷♂️
As a Georgia fan, Nick Saban and Alabama's success actually made college football more interesting. For 1 it's not often that dynasties of this nature become reality. Secondly, they have dominant. They are not a New England Patriot type dynasty winning so many games on last second field goals or controversial plays. They kicked Texas' ass, they kicked LSU's ass, they kicked Notre Dame's ass, they kicked Ohio State's ass. No teams since 2000 have won more than 2 national championships beside Alabama and LSU who owes one of their chips to Saban. Winning the national championship has become more important due to Alabama's dynasty.
Nick Saban loved this guy I can understand why he was heartbroken when he left.
Nick seems contemplative these days....he has a keen, sensitive, quietly intelligent side to him. Love or hate him, he is a remarkable person.
I respect the man as a person, sitting on top of that throne is hard, and staying up there is difficult.
I may hate the guy but this is the first time I have actually seen him cry as a sore loser let alone having a heart for other people than himself.
He is a good coach but he is an asshole with too much pride. I'm glad he finally opened up about this and finally I can say something good about Saban let alone good details about him.
Still Hate Bama.
Can you believe they are playing eachother tomorrow?
Coach Saban and Coach Smart both understand that families enteust their young men to them. Not only to develop as players but more importantly to help them develop as men and preparing them for the next phase of their life, be it football or business. The men they help develop are a direct reflection on the coaches. As much as Coach Saban has aggravated me over the years I have nothing but respect for him. In the end I know he will be unbelievably proud of Coach Smart.
GO DAWGS!!!!
Saban misses him. Great memories!
I like ppl that I work with. Lots of laughter passion n dedication.
“He’s as good and as loyal of an assistant coach as I’ve ever had on my staff.”😢
Go Dawgs! I’m not gonna sit here and lie about bama being overrated like some other sec school fans. I have a lot of respect for Nick and everything he’s built at bama.
Just remember that Georgia’s success is now also Nick Saban’s success, too.
Adam, looks like were gonna have us a slobberknocker of an SEC championship game this year!! Can't wait. GOOO DAWGS!! And yes, much respect for coach Saban.
HypeWrecks ikr I'll except that as long as we win
Roll Tide Roll!
Uncle Lou’s Black lab Georgia came to play. They kicked our butts for 3 qtrs. They deserved to win. But, at the end of the day you have to win. Awesome game.
Saban admires loyalty above all else. As we all should. That is first among all things.
And Kirby did that. As a Bama fan we will always love Kirby. He got his chance at UGA and we respect what he’s done
He helped us win 5 national championships
I am a dawgs fan. I have the up most respect for Mr. Saban. He is THE MAN.
Is this Dale Brown formally from Woodbury Georgia ?
I do too
Love to see Coach Saban in the Crimson Jacket, first for me.
HamerSlammerSeries I like seeing Coach Saban in the red jacket also! Roll Tide♡♡♡
He's just top of the line. Worth every single nickel. If anybody ever had that "it" factor he does. He's a hellcat but he's also fair.. just a great great individual not withstanding the best college football coach that has ever coached period!!!!
These two great coaches, great recruiters, great player development experts will have one hell of a power struggle over the next few years. Should generate a bunch of interest!
He knew Kirby was the one.
Absolutely 💯 💯 💯

We now know, Bama is still the standard.
great jacket
+Manuel Soto I thought the same thing.
Lots of respect for Saban, from a die hard Georgia fan
Lots of mutual respect between these two coaches! I could tell when Smart beat him for the national championship, Saban acted like a super proud father knowing his “son” came out just fine!
Wonder how he feels about Kirby now that they compete for players? Also, Kirby crushing it over in Athens
Apparently you didn't understand what the man just got through explaining. If you did understand then you wouldn't have asked the question.
Exactly the same
I’m sure it’s just business to him and doesn’t take it personally. But I’m sure he has fun beating him on the field lol
Kirby finally got over the hump while Bama was banged up but otherwise hasn’t done enough to piss Saban off or Alabama fans
He is unique. Just like The Bear. I love he's our coach. Born Bama fan for life!!!
So touching! This is a wonderful change from all the anger and revenge!
Throwback moment
I hope Kirby wins all his games except when he plays Alabama! Kirby is great and I'm gonna miss seeing him on the Alabama sidelines, but Saint Nick is the Man! Roll Tide!
J Cunningham Georgia bama would be Good game
J Cunningham why did Sabin leave lsu please use intelligence when answer 1 year at Miami come on
You were right!
Unfortunately as a Dawgs fan you got your wish lol.
@@darthflyer257 No he didn’t 😂
You two make up an awesome coaching pair!!! ROLL TIDE Saban has made a great mark in the St. of Alabama that will never be recap by anyone as well (THE BEAR) did too!!! RTR We BLEED CRIMSON !! And so do the tean we are playing that weekend , just in a different way..Bahahaha
His character , Heart and Soul.
Coach Saban is a model for coaches and a very classy human being.
He knew what was coming
He has a heart under the hard nose persona. Georgia gets thier Alabama Saban clone. Good luck Georgia.
+CrimsonTide Wuff!!!!
CrimsonTide thanks for giving us a coach to destroy the east it's coming together well it's gonna be the same SEC Cha for the next five years
CrimsonTide (6g*
Yessir
Good call. Kirby did it for the dawgs. And all respect to saban for showing him the ropes when he was at Bama. They are both great coaches!
They were such friends!
They still are z
I have been both an Alabama fan and a Georgia fan for 50 years. I am glad for Georgia and sad for Bama. I will still Love Coach Smart and hope he wins the East every year so Coach Saban can still show him how to win. Thank you both guys for such a long winning tradition at Alabama.

Recruits choose where they want to go regardless of where the coach recruiting goes to.Well until signing day recruits can uncommit and commit
+ennis whalen There are often some rules in the contracts about that. But certainly, sometimes the recruit doesn't care because they want this program, not this coach.

Damn. I didn't think he could cry.
Turn up the volume audio very poor
Media ask him the stupidest questions. Everytime they do, he makes them look stupid. Then they criticize him for it.
Nick build Kirby into a winner get ready for the Dawgs and Tide show for years to come
Notre Dame fan. ..Nick is first class...Kirby is an awesome coach.
Really hope Kirby comes back to Ttown when Saban hangs it up, but I highly doubt it. He’s built his own machine now.
Nick Saban is the GOAT
Kirby leaving to Georgia is like the NCAA busting up a monopoly.
Roll tide!
Kirby WAS…
When he covers his left eye 👁 it reminds me of the Scar I have above mine…
Or like the Spartan King’s eye in 300 hundred…
Or maybe the demon that the King stabbed in the eye right before he cut his head off! 🗡
Definition of leadership
This is the beginning of the end for Saban. Respect the hell our of him but he knows how good Kirby is and it scares him a little and he also love Kirby.
Lol 3-0 vs Kirby now. Everybody keeps hoping he’s done but The Man is a machine
Played in 3 championships since this idiotic comment🤣🤣🤣
@@Jeremy-pb5xk 3-1 now
I'm here the night before the National Championship between Alabama and Georgia
SkeletonMan84
Roll Tide 🐘
Wave to me from the stands! LMAO! ;>)
UGA fan here. What a great game it was. Love Saban and Kirby. Respect.
Roll Tide but I Miss Kirby Smart my boy... He still apart of the Roll Tide family hope he transfer from Georgia back to Bama.....lol
Georgia vs Alabama 2017 sec championship. Can't fucking wait
SABAN IS THE NEW MODERN COACH BEAR BRYANT
I didn't think Saban was a drunk. We all know the bear was a 24/7 alcoholic. Infact it played a big hand in his passing.
I wonder if Nick and Bill Belichick have a competition going on with their press conferences.
Sabin, “Hey Bill, I’ll see your “On to Cincinnati” and raise you one “ask the Coke bottle...”
He looks so handsome in the crimson jacket, love that man
There is mutual respect between these two coaches. Kirby learned a lot from Saban, and now has two championships under his own belt. Two damn good coaches!
I meant if Georgia had to lose I'm glad it was to Alabama. Sorry for the confusion. Go dawgs
In 2017-2018 season he's going to lead georgia to the national champion ship and play alabama
GreenJell o lol loser
Tua had other plans
Jack Fuller what?
Kirby learned from the best
It’s obvious by this who Saban thinks is the second greatest CFB coach of all time.
Bear Bryant?
That was "emotional??" When I get "emotional" no one can understand a word I'm saying through my blubbering. Wow.
Now Papa Bear gets to beat Younger Bear on Jan 8th 2018.
Look out, er'r damn body, for season 2018 ... many younger fellers/coaches will have more experience and I feel 2018 will be much more competitive than 2017 was.
ROLL TIDE
... but if the Dawgs wind up winning ... I won't be completely butt-hurt (for too long). At least that's what I'm telling myself LOL ;o/
They don’t come much better then this guy
If dawgs had to lose I'm glad it to ala
pale watch same
NICK THERE ANT ANY OTHER
Thx for raising him from a pup to a Bulldawg. Enjoy retirement as a best coach in history! Smart will be the only pupal to beat you on the battlefield! Maybe this year, maybe next but the Tide is shifting and all dynasty's must come to an end. Go Dawgs!
Saban respectfully feels sorry for Smart . When you are at the top and under the spotlight. No place for thin skin . At least everyone won't be wanting anyone to beat GA. as they did with Alabama.
Pay a coach in college more than 100.000 is not right.
to prepare and send people to make millions in a billion dollar industry? tell me more..
@@NoName-hc4fh college football itself is a billion dollar business
@@jacksonflinn9398 the money don't circulate that way in NCAA. And if it is, then why not pay the most important guy what he's worth.
Would you please ask Mr. Smart to actually coach Georgia to win some games!
They didn't do terribly his first season. He's getting used to it.
Your wish has been granted bro. Gotta have faith in your team. Trust the process.
fingersonfire4gh I wish MacElwain was the same. His real colors are beginning to show
I think he did now
samtastic74 dude Kirby has done everything right. Last year he just didn’t have enough talent
Ya had him ya let him go now it cost ya 2 no 3 championship this year good coaching there coach
Let him go? He’s not going to be selfish to a friend. He loves Kirby and knew he would make a great head coach. Saban wasn’t going to hold him back.
Gooo dogs but Nick Saban is a good coach but go dogs
He's really crying now
Check out the song Just Me and My Beer on You Tube. Funny and creative song.
Nick "The Saint" Saban. No sh💩t, I honestly believe he could survive a dreaded "Dead Girl, Live Boy" scandal. I mean hell it's Alabama for God's sake, have you seen what they do to their sisters over there, or the family pet if she's sleeping with daddy that night🤷♂️
I'm sick of Alabama winning NC.they make college football boring
Depends on who you are .Roll Tide !

Nick has no feelings i want ever ride thru that state they cheat at ever thing
Please stay out of my state we dislike crybabies.
It's WONT and EVERY.
go tigers
Because he can't WIN a game with out HIM 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Kirby is 1-4 against Saban. You might be one of the dumbest people I’ve seen on UA-cam. Not that I expect anything more from a Georgia fan
nick crying haaaaaahaaaaaa
