She’s a wife, mother, grandmother, cheerleader, team mom and the first lady of Alabama football. But to most of us, she’s simply and affectionately known as “Miss Terry,” the fivestar fireball who is her husband Nick Saban’s best friend, ace recruiter and occasional armchair coach.

From their hometown of Fairmont, West Va., to East Lansing, Mich., Baton Rouge to Tuscaloosa, Terry Constable Saban has been by his side at every stop along the way.

And who knows? If not for Miss Terry, Coach Saban might be back in West Virginia pumping gas and some other guy could be the head football coach at the University of Alabama.

So, as the Sabans prepare to begin their sixteenth season in Tuscaloosa, we encourage you to take a few minutes to watch and listen to our “Ode to Miss Terry.”
