Nick Saban Denied Entry to SEC Media Days for Missing Credential

The legendary coach, now an ESPN analyst, faced an unexpected hurdle at his first media event.

Saban, retired from coaching, forgot to wear his press badge and was initially denied entry.
He has never needed credentials in his 17 years as Alabama's head coach.
Saban laughed off the incident and returned with the required credential.
He will join ESPN's College GameDay team this season.
Saban's career includes seven national titles, making him one of the most successful coaches in college football history.
