In his first stop of the Crimson Caravan in Huntsville, Ala., on Thursday, Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban expressed some disappointment in his team, and maybe himself.
In a conversation with the media, Saban was asked about the team's priority for the summer. His answer was a little revealing:
"We need to get our mojo back ... we need into get our identity back," Saban said.
"We used to be a team nobody wanted to play," he explained. "We've had a few distractions with the last couple years that I think have affected how we've finished the season."
The Tide, who won the national championship in 2012, lost in the Sugar Bowl to Oklahoma and Ohio State in back-to-back seasons.
Alabama opens the season Sept. 5 in Arlington, Texas, against Wisconsin.
In the video (above) Saban also addressed spring practice and deflected rumors of Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller's reported interest in transferring to Alabama.
