Nick Saban’s marriage to Miss Terry

Nick and Terry Saban crossed paths for the first time in the seventh grade, forging a friendship that gradually evolved into something more. Over time, their bond transformed from a platonic connection into a romantic one, eventually blossoming into a high school romance.

The couple have celebrated over 50 years of marriage. They are proud parents of two adopted children, Nicholas and Kristen. Miss Terry serves as Nick Saban's closest confidante and a top-notch recruiter and at times, offers coaching insights from behind the scenes.

Together, the Sabans are the co-founders of the Nick's Kids Foundation, which has been dedicated to supporting the needs of children ever since Saban began his career as a head coach.

Saban still getting coached up

Following Alabama’s 40-17 win against Mississippi State, which is the first game Miss Terry missed since they arrived at Alabama, Nick Saban noted on Monday that he got the postgame critique nevertheless.

“She waited up for me to get home, so that was a good thing,” Saban said. “It was one of the first games she’s missed and didn’t go to since we’ve been here. I think it is the first game, actually. She says you can see what’s happening a lot better on TV, so I got coached up quite a bit when I got home.”

No. 11 Alabama hasn't been as dominant as previous seasons. However, it's won four games, only losing to now-No. 3 Texas. It’s safe to say Miss Terry has a big role to play in reviving the team.
