Lmfao so even Saban isn't good enough for the sips. Find the contract and run it thru 10 shredders there is no fricking way these marys belong in the SEC.

I already know that is why they hate us so much. I still think the Saban to texas rumours were all Jimmy Sexton fishing for more money.

It was happening



It was not. Just because Coach Saban listened does not mean he was ever coming. I have had many job offers and listened to every one and considered them. Just because I considered them does not mean I was going to take the job, it was just flattering to see people try and hire me away from my current job.

While Texas has gobs of money, it also has gobs of problems (and I mean it in both definitions

)plural noun: gobs
1.
a lump or clot of a slimy or viscous substance.
"a gob of phlegm"
2.
NORTH AMERICAN
a lot of.

Once Jimbo beats you down a few more times I'm sure we can expect more threads about how he wanted to come home but LSU had moved on. You guys are getting psychotic with all this what IF stuff.

This is a true "Monk-like tale. Lose your lover and just go bat-crap crazy for the rest of your existence.

My goodness child, your really believe that.

From the start Coach Saban realized that Texas had way more problems and not just boosters. Listening to someone wooing you if flattering but Coach Saban is far from an idiot.

Is Sexton the shittiest negotiator of all time then? We offered Saban 10 mil a year and Sexton only got 7 out of Bama. No bidding war. Nothing.



That very statement tells you Coach Saban did not want to go to Texas, and was not going to go to Texas under any circumstances.

Saban is a great coach but some of the stuff he does would not pass at Texas.



Of course it wouldn't That's basically the crux of the whole article, and why Texas football is wallowing in mediocrity today.

It sounds like your argument is with the people that say Alabama is the NC winner, not Alabama. It is funny though, Texas has 4 NC in its history, and Alabama had 4 NC won by 1940.

You should know that if Coach Saban says he is going to do something, count on it.

I don't know why LSU fans keep bringing this up. I guess it makes them feel better even though they're the spurned lover?

If anything, it shows the total ineptitude of the LSU brass and a complete lack of foresight. That's more embarrassing than having your feelings hurt when Saban went to coach a rival school.

Are you aware of the last two teams to split a college football national championship?

3 more NC? Alabama has won 13 since 1961 using the AP/UPI/BCS/CFP system so you are wrong there too.
