In An Absolute Shocker, Nick Saban Is Apparently A Big Fan Of ‘Deez Nuts’ Jokes

Alabama head football coach Nick Saban gave a hilariously on-brand answer when asked when he was going to start thinking out retirement

Alabama head coach Nick Saban doesn’t let off much of a humorous personality. But maybe there’s something in there that we just can’t see on a daily basis.

As it turns out, the 69-year-old legend is a big fan of using “deez nuts” jokes around his locker room. Or at least that’s what safety Jordan Battle said during his presser on Tuesday afternoon.

Shortly after Jordan Battle’s admission, social media was blowing up with jokes about Nick Saban secretly being a big fan of ‘deez nutz’ jokes.

As it turns out, this actually isn’t the first time an Alabama player has brought up Nick Saban’s commitment to using “deez nutz” jokes when he’s in a good mood around his players.

Nick Saban has a lot to be happy about these days.

After blowing away both opponents over the first two weeks, it looks like another one of those years where it would take a major upset for Alabama not to win the National Championship.

Which just means Nick Saban’s reign of college football supremacy isn’t slowing down any time soon. And perhaps the ol’ coach has many more years of “deez nutz” jokes left in the tank.
