After talking to Alabama people, I think whoever gets that job owes Bruce Pearl a cut. His hiring at Auburn is pushing Alabama. Things might

be different with their search if Auburn hadn't hired such a big personality. Howland at Mississippi State, Barnes at Tennessee also factors

People are telling me Marshall was debating a tough choice all day. Had to be exhausting for him. WSU made it worth his while and home-field

equally impressive list of schools in recent years.

Alabama threw every bit of its SEC might around, even involving its development staff and Nick Saban's agent, Jimmy Sexton, had a role, from

what I'm told. Repelling those boarders is quite impressive.

Bama got rejected by a city state school.

Bama made a city state school pay $3+M to keep their coach.

He's a good coach. He certainly isn't worth $4 mill., IMO.

See how the defend against U of Indy.
They will be there sooner or later.

City state school coach agreed to stay at city state schools for less money.

Yes and no. He could probably bring $4M of value. But you could get someone who would do as good a job (or close enough) for $2 and change.

How when Bama was talking to Marshall even before those 2 fired their coaches?

Read that as D2 and change.

I foresee a couple of other city state type coaches making a lot more money, not calling their local realtors and sending thank you notes to BAMA pretty soon...
I kind of have feels for Gump.
