You can call LSU head coach Nick Saban the complete package. Brought to Baton Rouge following the 1999 season to revive what many considered a sleeping giant, Saban has transformed the LSU football program into one that wins championships, while graduating players at the same time. Armed with a plan that gives his players a chance to be successful on the field as well as the classroom, Saban's impact on the program has been immediate and it's been powerful. In just two short years at LSU's head coach, Saban's on-field success has been unmatched as he has guided the Tigers to 18 victories, a pair of bowl wins, including one in a BCS game, and the 2001 Southeastern Conference title. Off the field, Saban has spearheaded a fundraising effort that has raised more than $15 million for a state-of-the-art academic center for student-athletes. The new LSU Academic Center for Student-Athletes is all part of Saban's plan to give his players the best opportunity to best successful when they finish their football career. Saban didn't waste anytime making his impact felt as the he guided a team coming off back-to-back losing seasons to an 8-4 mark and a win over 15th-ranked Georgia Tech in the to rekindle the fire of a proud football tradition in Baton Rouge. Saban's influence on the Tigers went much further in 2001 as he led LSU to the school's first outright Southeastern Conference title since 1986 with a 31-20 win over second-ranked Tennessee in the SEC title game and followed that win a 47-34 victory over Illinois in the Sugar Bowl, LSU's first New Year's Day Bowl win since 1968.
