Legendary college football Nick Saban has added to his already crowded trophy case by winning the 2024 ESPY Icon Award on Thursday night.
In his time as a head coach with the Alabama Crimson Tide, Saban won six national championships during his 17-year tenure in Tuscaloosa. Coach Saban won an additional title while serving as the head coach of the LSU Tigers.
Alabama football legends and Heisman Trophy winners Mark Ingram and Bryce Young were able to present Coach Saban with the honor.
After accepting the award, Saban would give a heartfelt message about teamwork, character, leadership, and much more.
If there is anyone who represents a true icon, it is Nicholas Lou Saban Jr. from Fairmont, West Virgina.
