They want Nick Saban, if Nick Saban was still the young guy at Michigan State. They'd pay any price to get that guy.
But that guy doesn't exist anymore. That's the big, big problem for A&M. And a bunch of other programs.
They wouldn't look at young Saban for more than a second. That guy had never won a conference, never even won 10 games in a season, was not a big name, and he wasn't a sure thing.
If the guys with veto power aren't even in the fricking interview, how the hell can they see the promise of an unknown newcomer?
The one thing this process can never produce is the next Nick Saban.

That is a damn good point.
You know, 'Bama swung and missed more than once before they hooked Saban. But they had the courage to swing. They knew the standard they wanted, and kept at it until they got it.
That is a really, really important point in this. Well stated.
