I want to get it fixed because I don’t want to coach for one more year, I want to coach for a lot more years,” he said after A-Day. “So whenever things like this come up, I want to be aggressive and proactive and try to get it taken care of. We’ll certainly do that. We have really good people to do it and I don’t think it should be a big deal.”

None of the players can EVER complain about injuries after this.  CNS is the epitome of dedication and commitment...  Sure am glad that he is OUR coach...

"48 hours after surgery, Nick Saban is back at work"

https://www.rollbamaroll.com/2019/4/25/18515701/jumbo-package-48-hours-after-surgery-nick-saban-is-back-at-work

It takes most people more than two days to get over a cold. But, for Alabama’s notorious workaholic head coach, that’s 48 hours wasted on himself rather than working on the game plan for Duke.

Unfortunately, Saban won’t be able to attend the NFL Draft as he usually does. But, make no mistake, he’s already spoken to all 32 GMs and head coaches multiple times in the past four months ...

Terry Saban thought she had her husband all settled in last Tuesday, less than 24 hours after his hip replacement surgery. She thought she had enough time to run a few errands while he dozed in his recliner all hooked up to his ice machine.

She admits now that she thought wrong.

Miss Terry, as Alabama's five-time national championship coach Nick Saban fondly refers to his wife of more than 40 years, returned home only to find, to her horror, her husband standing in the driveway.

"What are you doing out here?" she asked.

Saban shrugged and deadpanned, "You left me all alone, and there's nothing to do."

"You're not supposed to do anything," Terry shot back. "Get back in your chair!"

Welcome to the world of Nick Saban the patient, where getting the legendarily hard-charging coach to sit back and relax may just be the toughest job in sports.

The 67-year-old Saban doesn't do well with idle time. In fact, in his world, there's no such thing. Saban had his surgery last Monday at 4 p.m. -- after sneaking in 18 holes of golf that morning -- and by the next day was ready to get back to the office.

"I get home at 8:30 in the morning (Tuesday), and by 3 o'clock in the afternoon, man, I was climbing the walls," Saban told ESPN last Thursday. "I had film to watch, next year's opponents and recruits. Miss Terry was there, and she was being a good nurse. That's for sure. But I just can't sit around."

Or, as he later told Terry that Tuesday afternoon, "I can sit around with ice on my hip meeting with coaches as easily as I can sitting here and watching The Weather Channel all day."

Terry finally relented and called Saban's longtime administrative assistant, Linda Leoni, and said, "He's all yours."

Sure enough, by 7:15 Wednesday morning, Saban was back in the office, initially on a walker and then a cane. Within days, he'd ditch both.
