Nick Saban's wife Terry addresses $50 million Penn State question as comeback buzz grows
“Mrs. Always Right has spoken.”
During an appearance Saturday on ESPN’s “College GameDay,” Nick Saban’s wife, Terry, was asked by Pat McAfee if the Alabama coaching legend would come out of retirement to guide the Nittany Lions for $50 million, as speculation swirls over who will fill the Penn State vacancy after James Franklin’s firing last week with $49 million remaining on his contract.
“Look, Pat, I have no doubt that if Nick wanted to go back to coaching, he could win his eighth national championship, but we’re having too much fun and we wouldn’t want to take that opportunity away from all of our baby coaches like Kirby [Smart] and Lane [Kiffin]. Too much fun, I haven’t heard a number yet, Pat,” Terry said on set.
