The highest paid nfl coaches are paid 7-8 million in guaranteed contracts. Texas makes around the same profits as higher nfl franchises sans cowboys. Although its hard to compare profits because revenue is used and obtained from different methods than the nfl.

No matter the price, I just couldn't see Saban walking away from the strongest program in the nation to UT. If he were to end up in Austin it would have to be similar to the way Meyer ended up at OSU. Sure, Texas could theoretically offer more than Alabama can but could Saban justify the move as being for anything other than greed?

Not sure if UT would go after Miles. Something about his coaching style and personality just doesn't strike me as being the right fit for their boosters. However, if they were to make a run at him, I'm not sure LSU would fight to keep him the way Bama would for Saban. Miles strikes me as loyal and as having a genuine love for LSU, but I think that the faction of fans always trying to run him off combined with silly dollars could steer him away.
