Zuckerberg later posted a message about his and his wife's meeting with Saban on, obviously, Facebook. It read, in part:

"

We also got lunch with some of the Alabama Football players who come from all over the country to be part of this program. We talked about the pressures of being a student athlete -- not only the personal pressure of achieving their goals of making it to the NFL, but also having the hopes of their community ride of their success.

"

The 32-year-old billionaire has spent some time in Alabama over the past couple of days. It's the first stop on a tour of all 50 states. Here's what he posted Monday:
