LOOK: Nick Saban is driving a new Ferrari
One could say Nick Saban brought in the Ferrari of recruiting classes this year. Now, the Alabama head coach is driving one.
Saban has a new Ferrari Portofino, which was spotted at the Tuscaloosa Regional Airport by airline mechanic Tommy Brown. Although he usually drives a Mercedes Benz because he owns a Mercedes Benz dealership in Irondale, but he’s now an investor in Prancing Horse of Nashville — the only Ferrari store in Tennessee, according to Tide 100.9’s Aidan Dollins.
That’s quite the upgrade.
Saban is in the midst of an interesting offseason after bringing in the top 2023 recruiting class in the nation, according to the On3 Consensus Team Recruiting Rankings. He also hired two new coordinators. Kevin Steele is leaving Miami to take over as defensive coordinator while Tommy Rees is the new offensive coordinator after arriving from his alma mater, Notre Dame.
Lane Kiffin calls for Alabama fans to trust Nick Saban following coordinator hires
Alabama fans were begging head coach Nick Saban to get rid of both offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien and DC Pete Golding. To a certain extent, wishes were granted, as both heading elsewhere for different jobs following an 11-2 season in Tuscaloosa.

Fireworks were expected from Saban as to who the two new coordinators would be.
Notre Dame‘s Tommy Rees and Miami defensive coordinator Kevin Steele were the two selections, with both having quality Power Five experience. Even so, Crimson Tide fans are still not thrilled, questioning the moves Saban is making. But as Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin pointed out, people need to trust the process with Saban.
Kiffin was his normal active self on Twitter on Monday, pointing out Saban was still able to land the No. 1 recruiting class in the country. Mostly everyone knew staff changes were going to be made but Alabama found a way to haul in players impressive for even their standards.
