LOOK: Fans wish Nick Saban a happy birthday on social media

Alabama football head coach Nick Saban has been with the Crimson Tide program since 2007 but has been around the game as a fan, player and coach for his entire life. Today, Saban celebrates his 72nd birthday and fans took to social media to celebrate him.

Saban has, with little debate, been the best college football coach of all time. Those who aren’t fans of his are usually either envious of his success or frustrated that their favorite team has to play a Saban-coached Alabama team.

For years, many have talked about Saban’s age and what it means for his coaching career. Well, he doesn’t seem to be ready to hang up the headset (one that he hasn’t broken yet), and even as recently as this offseason he told a recruit that he’d be “coaching until he croaks over.”

Fans of Saban took to social media to wish him a very happy birthday.
