DALLAS (AP) — Nick Saban is at SEC Media Days again, six months after retiring as Alabama coach.
This time he's asking the questions as part of ESPN's SEC Network coverage of the four-day event.
“I’m still a coach at heart. So I want to ask the coaches questions so that they can actually talk about things that they want to talk about, and maybe things that they want to be able to get out there,” Saban said Wednesday, a short time before his successor, Kalen DeBoer, made his SEC Media days debut as Tide coach.
“So I’m not trying to put anybody on the defensive,” Saban added. “I’m trying to help them express what they’d like to express about their team, or about a particular player, or about a position on their team.”
