This is likely the biggest long-shot, but football fans know you can’t put anything past Saban. The Crimson Tide head coach has already solidified himself as one of the greatest college coaches of all-time, but he may want another crack at the NFL. Saban, 66, led the Dolphins to a 15-17 record in his two seasons in Miami and may want to write his own Pete Carroll chapter. The Seahawks current head coach was unable to find sustained success with the New York Jets and New England Patriots before returning to college. In Carroll’s second stint back in the NFL, he has since won a Super Bowl title and has led the Seahawks to the playoffs in all but one season. While Saban is clearly not Carroll and the two faced different college situations, Alabama’s head coach had to make this list.
