I think Alabama did ruin CFB.

5 years later, aTm just offered a coach who went 8-4 with a Heisman QB $5 million. It's gotten out of hand.



Yet everyone is talking about Texas offering Saban 10 to 12 million a year like it's no big deal. They conveniently won't be held accountable because "they're Texas and they're rich" and apparently entitled to pay that much without and criticism.

I think that "best investment the university ever made" quote might be a contributing factor, along with it not actually being a real figure. IF a $10-12MM annual salary came to pass, it would most certainly be met with criticism and scrutiny.
