Nick Saban shows why he's a recruiting god with some slick dance moves

January 28, 2018

No matter how many top players and coaches Nick Saban loses at Alabama after each national championship-winning season, the Crimson Tide still remain one of the best teams in the sport year after year. As the saying goes, they don't rebuild, they reload, and no one does that better than Saban.

The question is, how? How does he get a top recruiting class every year? How does he win 14 games every year? How has he won five national championships in the last decade? What's he doing so much better than everyone else?

What did he have to do to land Tua Tagovailoa? The worm? Cha-cha slide? Macarena? The possibilities are endless.
