Despite handing over the reins to Kalen DeBoer, the ex-Alabama coach still can’t resist motivating the team. Nick Saban took the Crimson Tide to six national championships making its mark on everyone. Nick’s process did wonders for the team, but now when he is not part of the team anymore, he is still counting on its win this season. As Alabama is heading toward its first season opener against Western Kentucky, the whole Saban family is rooting for Team Tide.

 Today Nick and his whole family attended Alabam’s season opener against Western Kentucky supporting Kalen DeBoer’s newly created army. Saban’s daughter Kristen Saban shares a happy family photo on her Instagram captioning it “Very demure”. The whole family looks quite excited for the match. Even fans couldn’t resist themselves from commenting on Kristen’s post saying “Roll Tide with the Saban’s.” The family looks quite enthusiastic about the upcoming showdown.

Nick Saban always stood out for Alabama. He recently appreciated team’s defensive side, earlier he was skeptical about their position but after visiting fall camp he seemed satisfied. Nick also appreciated Kalen’s recruitment style and talked about him “embracing team’s tradition and culture”. Kalen DeBoer never actually tried to change the team’s functioning, but always focused on their overall improvement. He even used Nick Saban’s ideologies like “rat poison” to transform Alabama’s gameplay. Now, the team is heading its first season under him even, Saban has high hopes from Kalen and Alabama. Let’s see how the season turns out for the them.

Meet Kalen DeBoer’s Alabama

The Crimson Tide is entering its new season under HC Kalen DeBoer, well following legendary Nick Saban’s footsteps are not easy with constant questioning on the team’s future uncertainties. But it will be a big mistake to ignore Kalen’s contributions toward winning 3 national championships for Washington and Sioux Falls. DeBoer’s coaching record, boasting 104 wins and just 12 losses, is quite remarkable. Moreover, Kalen DeBoer has formed a team consisting of extremely skilled staff members.

Kalen DeBoer has accumulated a promising set of players through transfer portals. Joel Klatt is on the defensive side of the team along with newbies Tim Keenan, Tim Smith, and Jaheim Oatis. Alabama lost key players like Julian Sayin to the NFL draft, but the transfer portal came in handy for the team. He also added exceptional players on the team’s offensive side, which includes Justice Haynes, Jam Miller, and Richard Young. After successfully completing two fall camps of the team looks prepared for the season. Well, even if the team is ready, there is a lot of pressure on Kalen DeBoer for the coming match as the Crimson Tide has not lost a season opener since 2001. Will this continue for this year or the team will face massive defeat only time can tell.
