which I believe was in Sports Illustrated or ESPN Magazine some years back. It told how he was having a casual conversation one day with the women's basketball coach who was talking about a girl she was trying to recruit to Alabama. Saban invited both the coach and the girl to an Alabama football practice and said he'd show them around. In the meantime, he went to all of his assistant coaches and told them that when the girl showed up at practice they were all to go over at various times, introduce themselves and then sell her on attending Alabama. Well, they did and she did. Going that extra mile like that for a colleague really impressed me.
It also impressed me when he and his boys steamrolled Ohio State for the '21 national championship and he instantly became public enemy #1 around these parts
