Why exactly? More money for them to pay Saban and it has to help with recruiting.

The handle you use when not using this obvious alter.

Are you the same Pig fan that was using the Oregon alter up until yesterday? I bet you are.

I know I'd be disappointed but not as butthurt as LSU fans. He's won 3 NCs and has us in the running for a 4th this year.
It'd suck but eventually he'll move on, retire, or die. One of those 3 must come true at some point or another.



as an lsu fan i'd love to see saban go to texas, and bama hire miles, who then goes on to win a few NCs over there. The meltdown by other lsu fans would be well worth it!

LOL, 6 pages in under 30 minutes.

you guys are so hopeful.

where are the facts in this blog? proof?
It reads like a clay travis blog.

Who is Jesus Shuttlesworth or Moses Trainwreck...whatever his name is and why should I care?

So basically this is a blog talking about a local radio station in Austin who doesn't name anyone real or have any proof?

Cool.

Carry on for 17 more pages of nothing.

And I bet Texas made more.

At the very least I bet Saban tests the waters to get a lot more from Bama. Texas has the money to get in a bidding war.

Leave Big12fan alone. He's making some inquiries so that he can get us some more inside information. FINGERS CROSSED!

We've been hearing this since he got here 7 years ago. If he goes, he goes. If Kirby Smart does not go with him, Kirby would get the HC Job, no problem for us.

Personally, I think he stays where he is. He is 62, kind of old to be trying a new Adventure..,, If it was about Money, Alabama would dig deep to keep him...book it.ú

So does Bama.

Bet Bama is willing to pay more than Texas, though.

I'd like to point out to everyone around Nichols that this man most likely has a license and will be traveling in a half ton vehicle at speeds over 50 MPH. Stay off the roads

According to Forbes, Texas' football program made $78m in profit in 2012. That's not gross revenue, that's net revenue.

I think they can afford to get anybody they want.

Bama won't get in a bidding war over this shite. They've already made Nick the highest paid coach in college football, expanded and renovated BDS, built a state of the art football facility, recruiting headquarters, fitness & nutrition center, and anything else he wanted. Money has never been an issue while Nick's been at Alabama.

He either wants to stay and continue his legacy at Bama, or he wants a new experience elsewhere. Money won't be what makes him go to another job, and money won't be what makes him stay put.

I really like the "Jesus Shuttleworth's credibility remains unquestioned." That guy has his "Big Cigar" conversations that just throws out all kinds of crap at the wall, usually very vague, and rarely comes to pass. It's all about the inherent greatness of Texas and how they still rule the world.

Also, having to put up with the Longhorn network BS and kissing the arse of the old white men boosters would not go over well with Saban.


I'll preface this by saying I don't think he's going anywhere, but....

The LHN is one reason I think it's possible. It has been a failure and led to the downfall of a once great conference with a lot of old money floating around (T. Boone, etc.)

Saban has a bit of an ego with a touch of narcissism. He cozys to the camera when he is in control of what is being said. I believe ESPN has a vested interest in the future direction of UTexas.

Saban is going to make his 8mil a year wherever he's at. But, that income is finite. If he were somehow able to barter a deal for a fraction of the network, everybody wins. Saban wins, school wins, conference wins, and mostly, the Network wins.

Saban needed a couple of years in Miami financially. He didn't leave BR well off. I may be way off here, but it's the only reason I can see him starting over, because he has definitely chilled out in regards to staff and everyone around him.

Oh, and the old white men boosters would be kissing Saban's arse collectively.
