re: Longhorn Rumor Mill: Saban to be offered

Texas brings in about $150 million a year in revenue. And now they also have to keep the LHN going. They stand to lose BIG money if they let Mack Brown hang on too long and continue the slip towards mediocrity or worse. So, $10 million a year is nothing for them in this instance.

I don't know if this particular rumor is true, but it is the sort of thing that Texas will have to do very shortly or it is going to lose a lot of money.
