He perfected his golf craft at the Reggie Jackson “Mr. October” Foundation Celebrity Golf Classic.

Saban hit balls around with iconic music recording artists such as 50 Cent (Curtis Jackson) and Travis Scott. He blended in perfectly weeks after announcing his retirement from coaching the Tide. Saban is still serving the football program in a different role, but it is nice to see him take time for himself and his hobbies.

Kristen Saban Setas, Saban’s daughter, continues to post content of her dad having fun.

Alabama fans look forward to seeing him back around for spring practice.
