Nick Saban shared his biggest regret recently during an appearance on “The Pivot” podcast, and it would’ve changed the college football landscape for years. “When I left LSU that was probably professionally the biggest mistake that I ever made,” he admitted.

Upon retiring, Saban walked away with 11 SEC Championships, having over 160 players drafted to the NFL and won seven titles. His career is now the pinnacle of the sport, and people will chase after his records like he chased after Bear Bryant.

Nick Saban left an incredible legacy at Alabama after building one of the greatest dynasties in modern college football history. None of that would have happened if Saban chose to stay at LSU, and he admits that leaving Baton Rouge for the Miami Dolphins is his biggest professional regret.
