I’ve been out of Alabama for a few days, so I missed some big stuff. Like Nick Saban playing second fiddle to Donald Trump at my alma mater. “I feel like I’m the warm-up band for The Rolling Stones,” Saban quipped at Trump’s University of Alabama commencement-and-me speech.

Shortly after taking the stage at Coleman Coliseum on May 1, President Donald Trump talked Alabama football. After being introduced by former Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban, Trump began his remarks at the University of Alabama 's special commencement ceremony by asking students to remember where they were when Saban retired.

The former Crimson Tide head coach was a big fan of LSU tight end Mason Taylor when he attended Alabama's camp.
