It looks absolutely ridiculous.
The head is enormous. It's obscenely out of proportion. It looks more like Andy Griffith than Saban.
On another note, the remainder of the statues (while laughable for a variety of other reasons) all display at least an attempt at a modicum of decency.
Bryant, Stallings and Wade statues are all wearing coats and ties. Bryant's hands are by his side. Stallings arms are folded. Wade's hands are behind his back. The Thomas one (who never actually won a NC, but why quibble) is wearing coaching gear, but his hands are in his pockets.
And then there's big-head Nick's statue.
Forget the fact that the head is absurdly large or that the fat-fingered hands look like enormous canned hams jabbed on the end of a two-by four.
The statue is posed like he's clenching his ass to suppress a bubbling watery shit. It looks like he's wearing one of Maude's used track suits. Zero dignity. It exhibits zero class. What in the bleeding fuck were they trying to convey with this bronze monstrosity? It looks absolutely stupid. At least the rest of the statues make some effort at dignity. None here.
It really looks ridiculous. Like an Andy Griffith balloon in the Macy's parade.
