Chris Russo, otherwise known as First Take’s ‘Mad Dog,’ had quite the take following the news of Nick Saban’s contract extension through the 2030 season.

Mad Dog said Nick Saban was not the greatest college football coach of all time, much to the dismay of Stephen A. Smith.

Mad Dog’s argument stemmed around Alabama already being a power when Saban took over in 2007, which is another hot take on its own. He eventually named Notre Dame legend Ara Parseghian as his greatest coach of all time.

Twitter, as it does, reacted to Russo’s takes Wednesday afternoon.
