I dunno. This kind of bugs me. I know it's boosters and it's their money to spend like they want. But it seems to me you could do better things, like endowing scholarships or chairs at Alabama. Not giving a guy who already makes $7 million a year a really nice perk.

And yes, I will be very pissed if TAF is doing the same thing with Les Miles. A stupid-arse waste of a lot of money is a stupid-arse waste of a lot of money.

Les Miles probably gets free cars and home as well. This is pretty common and truly a non-story.

Why can't you do both?

It really isn't a waste of money. I'm sure they treat it like an investment. One day when Saban no longer resides there they will sell the house for hopefully more than they purchased it for. It's not like the paid it off for him and said it is now yours free and clear.
