SEC Media Day was the perfect moment to create storylines toward the 2025 College Football season. Maybe to talk about a possible coaches union being formed, but there was another particular topic that resounded in Atlanta. Comments from Lane Kiffin have reignited speculation that Nick Saban’s departure from Alabama in January 2024 could be temporary. Described as a “one-year in the media then back” scenario, Kiffin believes the legendary coach isn’t fully done and will likely return to coaching, whether in the college ranks or the NFL.
Following his storied career at Alabama, Saban transitioned into broadcasting with ESPN College GameDay at age 73, but sources clos to former players like Greg McElroy suggest his coaching fire still burns bright.

Lane Kiffin on Saban, “He’s so sharp”
Ole Miss head coach and former Alabama coordinator under Saban, Kiffin weighed in on his former boss’ future. Noting Saban’s sharp intellect and meticulous process, Kiffin redoubled his conviction that Saban’s hiatus from coaching is unlikely to last. He highlighted Saban’s NFL and College Football experience -coaching the Miami Dolphins, Alabama, LSU, Michigan State, and Toledo– and emphasized that Saban’s blend of acumen and leadership makes his retirement status look more like a temporary shift.
“I kind of thought it might be the NFL, just because he’s so sharp still. I just saw something yesterday where he was doing some interview. He’s so sharp and has the process so nailed of how to do it that I almost see it as a waste that he’s not coaching”, declared Kiffin.
Is Saban returning to College or NFL?
The Rebels’ coach suggests that an NFL return could be in Saban’s crosshairs, given his earlier positions with the Cleveland Browns, Houston Oilers, and Dolphins. But Kiffin also holds out hope for a collegiate comeback, potentially at Alabama or another program, as Saban’s legacy would resonate poweruflly in either arena.
“I did read what (Greg McElroy) said earlier today, and then they asked me a question and I’m like, ‘Yeah, he’s going to coach again. I don’t know if it’s college or NFL, but he’s gonna coach again.’ So he put that in my head and I repeated it. … But I have thought that. I thought it’d be probably one year in the media then back”, Kiffin added, leaving fans ans analysts buzzing across both football worlds.

Los dos bombazos del Madrid: Llull a 10 metros y Okeke ¡desde su campo!
Finalizaba el tercer cuarto y el Madrid tenía el partido más o menos bajo control. Pero un triple de Pelos a 57 segundos (65-54) dio paso a las dos canastas del partido. Y ambas del Madrid.La primera fue de Sergio Llull, que como siempre, desde tres, hace fácil lo que para otros es imposible. Buscaba la jugada pero le dieron un metro y lo aprovechó. El base lanzó un tiro desde unos 10 metros que voló por el Movistar Arena hasta caer limpiamente en una jugada muy celebrada por el público. Habría una mejor.Tras la canasta de Kuath, llegó la de Chuma Okeke... desde su campo. Recibió de Fernando, que sacó de fondo, dio apenas un bote y casi desde la ll´nea de tres de su propio campo, acertó Okeke, sobre la bocina y tras tocar en el tablero. Los […]

Un español que da clases en Vietnam cuenta cómo logra ahorrar más que en España
En España se vive relativamente cómodo, pero cuando los trabajadores viajan a otros países, uno de los problemas que más identifican es que aquí no hay una correlación entre los sueldos y el nivel de vida. Mientras que unos se mantienen congelados, el otro no para de subir. Eso significa que ahorrar con asiduidad cantidades importantes es prácticamente imposible.Cuando la mayoría se percata de esto, toma la decisión de irse a vivir a otros países para intentar conseguir más dinero. Normalmente, lo consiguen. Este es el caso de David Jimenez, un español que decidió mudarse a Vietnam cuando se enteró de que buscaban profesores de inglés. Han pasado los meses y está muy orgulloso de su decisión. Así cuenta lo que ha supuesto en el ámbito económico para él.Un profesor español, en el extranjero: “En Vietnam se puede vivir con […]
