Former Alabama football running back and Pittsburgh Steelers star Najee Harris has had the privilege of playing for two of the best coaches at both levels, Nick Saban and Mike Tomlin. Both coaches have found success in college football and the NFL, respectively, though they don't exactly go about their business in a similar fashion. In fact, Harris revealed what makes the Alabama football head coach and the Steelers leader different, per Mark Inabinett of AL.com.
“Saban, obviously, he do be saying some good jokes,” Harris said. “But he’s just so damn old, no disrespect to him. He’ll be saying like, ‘Oh, you’re softer than a baby’s ass.’ I’ll be like, ‘Bro, what is that? I don’t even know what the hell that even means. But, hey, Coach, whatever, though’ You know what I mean? ‘Like, cool, cool.’ But Saban has his moments. He has his moments. I’ll say that about him. He has his moments. He’s a funny-ass dude. …
“Tomlin’s actually funny. I guess he’s more hip. There’s a big age difference, I’ll say, so he’s a little bit more newer-school with the jokes. It’s not some old stuff that Saban be saying.”
Najee Harris said that Nick Saban has some “good jokes” but that he's “so damn old.” The Steelers halfback hilariously told AL.com that the Alabama football coach will say jokes that flop, such as “Oh, you're softer than a baby's ass.” Comical.
Whereas Mike Tomlin is “more hip”, according to Harris. The Alabama football alum did make it clear that Saban is funny and “has his moments.” However, in the joke-telling department, it's clear that one head coach is more old-school than the other.
