I should have been paying Coach Saban instead of them paying me because of the amount of knowledge that you learn in three years, and you view 'The Process.'

Coach Saban's a great coach; he does it his way, and I have to do it my way. I have to cut my own cloth.

If you would have told me when I was 24 years old, right before I went with Coach Carroll to USC, you're going to get to be the offensive coordinator for Pete Carroll and then offensive coordinator for Nick Saban, arguably maybe the two best coaches in all of football by the time you're 40 years old, I would have said, 'Where do I sign up?'

I mean, I just felt like Alabama fit me the best. What Coach Saban preaches about it all the time and what his players represent, I wanted to be a part of that.

Derrick Henry

Coach Saban did his best job to make me a better player and a better person. I thank him for that.

Ha Ha Clinton-Dix

I've seen Coach Saban over the years have to make a lot of tough decisions, and there's not one decision he doesn't make that he doesn't bounce ideas off the staff. To me, that's invaluable.

To me, personally, my development to become a head coach will be much better working for Coach Saban than necessarily going somewhere else because you learn every day that you're in there.

I'm tired of Nick Saban. I used to love Nick Saban. I don't know what he does on the recruiting side - he's the truth.

Boosie

I think I must play how I can, that's all. And if I play my best I'll be happy. It doesn't matter because NHL is the best league in the world and we have great players so whoever the coach puts me with is the best. The coach knows best.

Alexander Ovechkin

I don't know how Coach Saban found me all the way in Hawaii from Alabama.

Tua Tagovailoa

I couldn't get published for three years. Then the times changed: glasnost, perestroika. So, for three years, I wasn't allowed to publish 'The Unwomanly Face of War,' but then it changed.

Svetlana Alexievich

When I was younger I used to read everything. 'Why is this guy saying this, why is this article saying this.' That's one of the things Coach Saban has taught me, he does not listen or read anything that's out there at all. He says 'why am I going to waste my time?'

Lane Kiffin

Anybody can do something one time. You have a great year because everything goes right. But can you maintain it and sustain it for a long period of time as Coach Carroll did and Coach Saban?

Lane Kiffin

I'm very grateful to Coach Saban.

Lane Kiffin

Our personalities are the not the same, Coach Saban and I. And I have the utmost respect for what he's done and what he's done for me and my family.

Kirby Smart

There's not a day goes by that I don't ask, What would Coach Saban do?
