The seven-time national champion found out quickly what it's like to be a media member.
ESPN college football analyst Nick Saban is on site at SEC Media Days in Dallas this week, and was front and center on flagship morning talk show programWhen asked by host Mike Greenberg how different it is to be attending the annual event as a member of the media instead of as a coach, Saban shared a funny story from Monday morning before he went on the air.
"It's a little different. I've never worn a credential in my life," Saban quipped. "I was always, for 17 years, able to get in to SEC Media Day without a credential. I had to go back to the room today to get my credential to get in, so that's one of the biggest changes I see. It's not like it used to be," Saban added with a chuckle.
