Former Alabama head coach Nick Saban

Nick Saban has been lighting up the 2024 NFL Draft with his intricate insights on College GameDay alongside hosts Pat McAfee and Kirk Herbstreit among others.

College football fans are getting a glimpse of a different side of the former Alabama coach, who was only 'Coach Saban' to everyone when he ruled the football world. Former Eagles linebacker and sports analyst Emmanuel Acho praised Saban for his insights on College GameDay. He tweeted,

"Nick Saban explaining and defining athletic instincts is maybe the most fascinating thing I’ve ever heard."

CFB fans couldn't help but comment on Acho's tweet, praising the genius of coach Saban who has now become 'analyst Saban'. Let's take a look at some of these fan reactions:

"Fascinating and makes complete sense," a fan said.
"This is why I have had the draft on ABC and not ESPN. I have never been a Bama fan, but Saban is legend and I will listen to whatever he says," another fan said.
"He’s been dropping gold bars for 2 nights," a fan said.

Another fan shared what he believes is the reason behind Saban's greatness.

"The same can be said about wisdom, and that’s what Coach Saban has. Hang on every word folks, and follow any advice this man gives. He is mega successful for a reason," another fan said.
"Great clip. When the limits of the science (taught skills) is reached, then the quasi-magical instincts become the great separator," one fan said.

CFB fan (@verso) explained why Nick Saban's words are more relatable:

"He’s on a different level, but he explains things so everyone can understand and learn. Much respect," another fan said.
""I’m excited for game day this yr! Simply cause of saban it’s so refreshing watching the draft n hearing someone that knows ball talk about it unlike Desmond lol. He’s gonna make it good again," tweeted another user.
"I could listen to him analyze anything…sports, the weather, Greek mythology," a fan said.
