re: How does Saban view the Bama fanbase?

• University stipend for four years at $4,000 to $8,000 ($1,000 to $2,000 per year), depending on eligibility as determined by National Merit Scholarship Corporation and financial need as determined through completion of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

Basically you will get a max of $4k-$8k, or you will get ZERO from AU if you do not need financial assistance. And that is after your tution and room and board is already paid for.

My guess is most do not qualify for any additional stipend at AU unless their family is pretty poor. While bama will pay an extra $17,500 gauranteed to come to their school for 5 years.

Just another example of why gumps are dumb when they tout merit scholars when bama has to pay them so much to even consider bama.
