Alabama head coach Nick Saban is most commonly known for winning national championships and screaming at his players until he’s red in the face while on the sidelines.
But what about cruising down the street in a Ferrari?
Saban, who is part of the ownership group of the Prancing Horse of Nashville dealership, is also a Ferrari fan. While hosting top Crimson Tide commit Dre Kirkpatrick Jr., son of former Alabama and NFL corner Dre Kirkpatrick, Saban couldn’t resist showing off his Ferrari.
In a video Kirkpatrick Jr posted to social media, Saban hopped into the vehicle and started it, with the engine letting out a low roar.
College football fans absolutely loved it, too.

Of course, with all those dealerships. He's a Ferrari man. You have to respect it.

First time I’ve ever seen a GOAT in a Ferrari.

Got his drink in the cup holder 😂

From GOAT jokes to the drink in the cupholder, college football fans found Saban’s Ferrari flex to be very amusing. The Alabama coach wasn’t taking the vehicle out for a spin, given that it’s not Wednesday, which he has said is the only day he’ll take the Italian machine out of the garage.
But that didn’t stop Saban, whose Tide team is preparing for its College Football Playoff clash against Michigan, from flaunting the luxury vehicle.
No. 4 Alabama (12–1) meets No. 1 Michigan (13–0) at 5 p.m. ET on Jan. 1 in a CFP semifinal at the Rose Bowl.
