re: heard saban's name mentioned on Dallas sports radio today

The guy knows that he has exhausted all of his good will. He isn't wanted in the NFL, and if he jumped to another college program, he couldn't do what he likes best. No mom is going to sit in a living room and listen after "I am not going to be the coach at Alabama" and "I am not going to be the coach at Penn State/ND/Where ever". He's not going anywhere no matter how much you wish he would.

Agree totally. He is at Bama as long as Bama will have him. Nick isn't leaving anytime soon.

There's a 60% chance of this happening. Jerry needs another Jimmy Johnson and that is exactly what Saban is. The MIami debacle still bugs the shite out of Saban. The Dallas job would be just the opportunity to resolve this nagging failure on his career. If Jerry hired the Big Tuna then hiring Saban he can handle. I don't think Saban will be able to turn down the offer if it comes. Besides, the shopping in Dallas is just a tad better then Tuscaloosa for Mrs Saban.
