I dont care what UM pays him.... Coach Saban deserves to be the top paid College Football Coach* (IMO).

*Especially if we win it all again this year.

I'm sure we'll put him over Harbaugh so he can remain the top paid coach.

If we did it by exactly $1 that'd be hilariously awesome.

Saban will be well compensated again, that's for sure. Whatever we pay him will never be enough for what he's done for the University.

A fool and his money...

In case you don't understand - the fool in this instance is Michigan.

Michigan fully expects JH to do what NS has done at Alabama. NS was able to do at Alabama what he did because of the SEC and what all those other schools brought to the table. The B1G has 3 schools at the most. JH will bolt back to the NFL or be fired before they make the playoffs.

Saban should and most likely will be the highest paid coach regardless of whether he wins it all again this year. And by much more than $1.

We lost in the consolation sugar bowl last year and he got another new contract. He will get whatever he wants - because he earned that shite IMHO when he won the second Natty in NO.

21-0. Blank fricking check.

After ND natty the next year - here is a complimentary pen to fill out that check.

So we should basically treat this like the cold war? They build a one more nuke than us so we should build one more than them. What do we accomplish by this?

I'm all for letting it blow up in their face with a mediocre showing over four years. Unless Harbaugh gets another one in a generation talent like Andrew Luck, I don't see him blowing up that conference. Meyer is much more entrenched as well and is at the point where he has the recruits to fit his scheme. Going to take Ole Jim a while to get that and by then he'll likely be going back to the NFL.

@Johnubacon: BREAKING NEWS: Straight from UM AD Jim Hackett. Harbaugh's salary will be roughly $5M a year, plus incentives, same basic contract as 49ers.

CNS does deserve to be the highest paid coach as long as other coaches are being paid within reason. If some school decides to pay their coach $15 mil/yr, it would be stupid on our part to top that so that CNS would still be the highest paid

It turns out he's getting 5 million a year.
