Praiseworthy note for Sayin

Last month, Saban was heard wholeheartedly praising Sayin. “And they’ve talked about Julian Sayin, nobody in the country is completing 80% of his passes but him,” Saban said on The Pat McAfee Show, as reported by Clutch Points.

“And I know he’s got some good receivers, but they’ve been able to run the ball. The offensive line has played pretty well. So I think the emphasis for Ryan Day has got to be focused on improvement and consistency, and performance, so we don’t have ups and downs during this season,” Saban added.

Sayin has gained fame in his role at Ohio State, and according to Sports Illustrated, he has passed for 1,872 yards and 19 touchdowns. After Saban’s retirement, Sayin joined Ohio State.
