The last seven years have been a turbulent time for Texas coach Steve Sarkisian. After being fired from USC in 2015 due to his struggle with alcoholism, he thought his days as a coach and offensive coordinator were over—until Nick Saban came along.

“I’ve said this numerous times, but I would not be the head coach at Texas if it weren’t for Nick Saban,” Sarkisian told ESPN. “He gave me a chance when I had a hard time getting an interview, never mind a job. There were days that I thought, ‘Man, I’m never going to be a head coach again. I’m never going to be an offensive coordinator again. I’m never going to get another job.’
