TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Alabama coach Nick Saban has signed a three-year contract extension.

Athletic director Mal Moore announced the deal Saturday.

Saban signed an eight-year contract when he joined the Crimson Tide in 2007. The extension takes him through 2017.

The extension is subject to approval by the compensation committee of the board of trustees of the University of Alabama System. The committee is expected to meet soon to discuss it.
