Daughter of Nick Saban apologizes for tweet questioning Ohio State's COVID issues
After a controversial, now-deleted tweet accusing Ohio State of using COVID-19 issues to push back the College Football Playoff National Championship Game to get quarterback Justin Fields healthy, Kristen Saban Setas has taken to the platform to apologize.
“I’m so sorry,” Setas’ initial tweet reads, before posting a statement expressing her remorse.
“The tweet I posted earlier this evening was uncalled for and hurtful,” Setas wrote. “I made a huge mistake and I apologize. In a moment of frustration, I let my anger get the best of me and acted before thinking. I sincerely regret my choice of reckless words. In no way did I intend to undermine the seriousness of the global pandemic and my heart goes out to those it has affected.
“The health and safety of others is first and foremost and I pray that we all can find peace soon. I am ashamed and embarrassed. I hope you can forgive me.”

She was just ribbing you guys.
Pretty sure that Dad gave her some fatherly advise.
Probably the same kind of “fatherly advice” he gives to players and coaches when they screw up. Honestly, she loves to make smarmy tweets. She thinks she’s untouchable because she’s Coach’s daughter and it can get embarrassing to read some of the tweets she spews out.
LMAO!! Dad took her phone!!
Nice!
I wish she hadn’t apologized. People don’t accept apologies anymore, instead, just pick them apart as unacceptable some way.
Don’t drink and tweet Kristen. What a knucklehead.
Never apologize for telling the TRUTH! Let’s see a report on WHO is “infected” or has had contact with an infected person!
They had thier covid issues. 3 or 4 weeks ago. They want to give fields some extra time for those ribs to heal up.
I agree.
Why do we cancel games because one or two people get a everyday virus?
She only said what most of us were thinking
Always apologizin.
Why does everyone feel they have to apologize for an opinion. Hell the media doesn’t do it. Screw them it is a sham.
Her opinion was based on an implied accusation of Ohio State lying about this and being scared. She has no idea what their COVID situation is. She talked way out of her pay grade and she got slapped down for it.
We live in a world of pansies where all opinions expressed have to be politically correct & can’t offend anyone.. only problem is in this world full of pansies almost everything offends somebody somewhere.. can I get a big Roll Tide !!
Roll Tide!
