Sorry college football fans (outside of Tuscaloosa), Nick Saban isn’t going anywhere.
Per Al.com, Saban is “uninterested” in retirement. Saying, ““Everybody asks me when I wanna retire. Retire from what? I’m gonna jump into an empty abyss, aight, of what am I going to do?”
“I’m gonna jump into an empty abyss, aight, of what am I going to do?”

“Because the very challenges that I talk about and the things in our profession that concern me … that’s what keeps me going,” Saban continued. “That’s why I get up every day. That’s why I can’t sleep at night sometimes. So why would you quit doing that? I haven’t figured that one out yet.”
Fans reacted to the coach‘s comments on Twitter.
“The people are requesting a ‘Jump into an empty abyss’ button, and who am I to deny them?” joked an Alabama fan.
