Legendary football coach Nick Saban has a new gig that involves hosting families during their vacation rentals, according to a new commercial he stars in.
Saban, who coached at the University of Alabama for 16 years and won six National Championships with the Crimson Tide, appeared in a commercial for Vrbo, an online marketplace for vacation rentals. The 72-year-old retired from head coaching in January.
In the 1-minute commercial, Saban welcomes a family of four to their rental vacation home. He treats the family like his players, including clocking their arrival time and game-planning their trip.
"As your host, I have some rules," Saban says in the commercial. "No showers longer than five minutes, this isn't a spa. No streaming, only cable television... no games, no fun, the kids aren't even allowed in the house."

'Daddy time in the tub'
Saban is then seen in the commercial cutting the grass and yelling at the family's two kids to vacate the home.
"How'd you two get inside," the former coach asks the children.
Saban also institutes a "two-flush maximum per bathroom visit." While in the hot tub with the parents of the family, the former coach tells them they have 10 minutes because this is "Daddy time in the tub."
What is Nick Saban doing now?
Saban's retirement came unexpectedly to many as he signed an eight-year $93.6 million deal in 2022 to continue coaching at Alabama.
"The University of Alabama has been a very special place to Terry and me," Saban said in a statement in January. "We have enjoyed every minute of our 17 years being the head coach at Alabama as well as becoming a part of the Tuscaloosa community."
"It is not just about how many games we won and lost, but it's about the legacy and how we went about it. We always tried to do it the right way. The goal was always to help players create more value for their future, be the best player they could be and be more successful in life because they were part of the program."
In February, Saban announced he joined ESPN as a media analyst. He is expected to appear frequently on the network's "College GameDay" program.
“ESPN and ‘College GameDay’ have played such an important role in the growth of college football, and I’m honored to have the opportunity to join their team. I’ll do my best to offer additional insights and perspectives to contribute to College GameDay, the ultimate Saturday tradition for college football fans,” Saban said in a news release.
