re: Saban turned down $100M in order to stay at Bama

If there was negotiation, Saban turned it down. Since it never happened, Texas can now boast that they had $100 Million to give. Why would they do this? Becuase they want everyone to know that they have $100 Million to spend and you don't.

There is nothing more asinine than Saban rumors. If I had a dollar for every story I am told here in Louisiana from some crackpot LSU fan with some long convoluted tale about how Saban desparately wants to come back to Baton Rouge but just couldn't because of (a) some issue with his Alabama contract, or (b) its too hard to fire Miles, or (c) threats from the Tuscaloosa Mafia, or any number of other stupid excuses, I would have $100 Million to give to a football coach

You broke the code. Nicely written and 100% true. It's not fair that I can only give this 1 upvote.
