Nick Saban is one of the best recruiters in college football. On Sunday, we may have gotten a look into one of his tactics. Three-star cornerback and son of former Alabama cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick , Dre Kirkpatrick Jr. posted a video of Saban showing off his Ferrari during a visit.

Kirkpatrick Jr. posted the video to social media. Saban gets in his car and fires it up to show it off. Getting behind the wheel of a high-end sports car certainly is a way to get the attention of a lot of high school recruits. While Kirkpatrick Jr. probably doesn’t need an insight into the Alabama program, other recruits might be very swayed by this show from Saban.
What’s another great recruiting tool? National championships. Saban has his team in the College Football Playoff again after beating Georgia in the SEC championship. They have to play top-ranked Michigan but there is no doubt that Saban will have his team ready. However, the Wolverines will be a tough out but the Crimson Tide have proven they can hang with the best of the best.
This was a fun moment from Nick Saban. He is usually all business so it is great to see him let loose a little bit in front of some recruits.
