Dabo not being top 5 in football is shocking



He's going to be #1 in about 5 years, whether it is in Tuscaloosa or in Clemson is the only question

And legitimately fight off some NBA interest. They’re far more likely to bring up a college coach than football anymore.

Idk
Kliff Kingsbury just moved to the pros.
And it wouldn’t surprise me if Riley makes the move soon

Yea - the college thing fizzled for a while but it's back in force with the offensive revolution stuff.

I'm hearing that Saban is looking to jump to the NFL soon.

That's all I can say for now. Pay attention during the spring games.

It's pretty crazy he makes $1M more a year than Saban in a sport where coaching salaries are less across the board.

If I was Saban I'd probably need a clause in my contract saying nobody in college sports makes more than me, and call it the Coach Cal clause.


On top of that, there's no way UK basketball brings in near as much $ as Alabama football, which makes the salary disparity even more hilarious. Even disreagrding the fact Cal's accomplishments arent even close to Saban's

Nobody wants Saban he's old and lost to Clemson by a lot. Alabama is stuck with him.

In all seriousness, I'd pay good money to watch Dabo in the NFL. That'd be damned hilarious.

It's not a bubble. Its a redistribution of wealth from the unpaid workers to the overcompensated managers by rule. Pay the players already.

Nobody in any sport is worth more than Saban. That's an insane salary for Cal.


FWIW Saban's max salary is higher. Cal's only has one incentive bonus and it's academic based.




If you think Cal's numbers are crazy Kenny Payne typically makes more than other teams assistants combined and made more than Nate Oats this year.

He's done it already
his kind of coaching doesn't work with NFL players.

HE MADE A GUY CRY

Nah we already went through the "WE CAN'T WIN CAUSE SABAN ISN'T A DICK NOW" phase back in 2014 I think.
