TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Legendary Alabama football coach Nick Saban is retiring. According to ESPN, Washington Huskies Head Coach Kalen DeBoer will be taking his place.
Reporters for ESPN say that DeBoer "had emerged as the Crimson Tide's top target even before three other possible candidates, Oregon's Dan Lanning, Florida State's Mike Norvell and Texas' Steve Sarkisian, withdrew from the search and affirmed their commitments to their current schools over the past two days."
