That one cannot be beat but I laughed out loud last year when he said, "We gotta embrace the grind." Not really sure why, but I did.

One of my favorites..."We have freedom of choice, but we don't have freedom of consequence." I heard him telling this to a recruit in Gamechanger video.

I have to go with the early Saban quote...
'Make his ... quit'
'He said it and we did it'... (My quote)

AIGHT...

"Passion is being committed, not just interested. Having an interest means you enjoy something, and find time for it when you can. Being passionate means being willing to sacrifice for it and make it a priority in life."

"If we stayed past midnight most nights, fatigue would set in and affect our work. You can always do more, but I have found that a hundred hours a week is enough."

"Do the right thing. It is that simple. Do it when it is not popular, when no one else is around, and when temptation tells you otherwise. Do it all the time. Doing the right thing does not just mean doing it in front of other people."

"It's one thing to win a title - it's another thing to act like a champion."

Re: What's Your Favorite Coach Saban Quote Or Quotes

definitely not:

"Yes, we're very excited about the new uniforms we're getting! It should help us to be successful."

Because it never happened.

My favorite is probably the pre-game speech to the SEC championship vs Florida; what I heard of it anyway.
