Nick Saban may not have an outspoken sense of humor, but that's not going to stop the departing Lane Kiffin from making a few jokes on his way out.
In a presser ahead of the College Football Playoff semifinal, Kiffin revealed the happiest moment with Saban at Alabama... well, sort of the happiest moment.
Bama OC Lane Kiffin was asked what was the happiest he remembered Nick Saban: “I don’t recall a happy moment. Just the ass chewings”

Of course, that joke comes after one of the more notable moments from earlier this season, where Saban blew up on Kiffin on the sideline.

Nick Saban asked if he and Lane Kiffin got into any arguments on the sideline: "There were no arguments, those are called ass-chewings."

That wasn't the only time that happened, either; Kiffin and Saban routinely argued on the sideline with the Crimson Tide, but even at its worst, Kiffin probably appreciated it to some degree. His time as Alabama's coordinator really rehabbed Kiffin's image, and he will now have time to re-work his image as a head coach once he takes over at Florida Atlantic.
