In all honesty - this is probably it, though, win-lose-or-draw - he either takes this job (if Texas wants him at his price) or he extends however long at UAT for whatever his goals are for there - probably something like $8 million guaranteed, plus incentives.

That's why I believe it happens - this is his absolute last play - he's not going back to the NFL (few would take him), and while he would have his pick of NCAA jobs (USC was open to him, if ND, Michigan, ANYBODY, really, would be happy to talk to him) - but only Texas could straight up outbid everyone, including Bama.

I've been wrong before.

Bama has a $ Billionaire behind the curtain named Paul Bryant Jr. This is not going to be about the money.

Per BONE in last nights recruiting chat..."Hootie wanted to know from Coach Saban about leaving for Texas. Coach assured him that he would be the coach for Alabama and was going nowhere."

Now its "Saban won't coach Bama's bowl".

What happened to the rumor that "Saban was addressing his team at 5pm"?

What's it going to be in February right before signing day?

This is all BS.

OK. Sure but how much are you really going to pay the guy? PBJr can afford any of that amount.

What do you think he was telling Michigan State recruits in December 1999? Or LSU recruits in December 2004?

He may stay, but it will be at a fairly steep price - this is his MO. I would say that I'm sorry ya'll have to deal with this every year but,

A. Bama

There was a report from a player that said that it was a meeting to pick team captains.

Of course not. That's why I said, "What do you think?"

Hey, I'm going to coach LSU, but you should stick with Michigan State - and don't tell anybody, it's not finalized yet and if word leaks, it could torpedo things.


Probably didn't go down that way.

He told his players at LSU on Christmas Day - that's Al Copeland classy.
