Nick Saban has no interest in jumping to NFL

Alabama coach Nick Saban made it clear after Monday's BCS title game victory that he has no interest in jumping to the NFL, stressing that he has no "unfinished business" in pro football.

It's been evident from the Cleveland papers that owner Jimmy Haslam holds Saban in high regard, but the NFL ship has sailed for the successful Crimson Tide coach. Of his 2005-2006 stint with the Dolphins, Saban said he had "a very, very difficult time thinking that I could impact the organization in the way that I wanted to or the way that I was able to in college, and it was very difficult for me, because there's a lot of parity in the NFL, there's a lot of rules in the NFL.. ... I've put it to rest."
