Nick Saban Talks About Being Interested In Texas Job Rumors

While in Pensacola, Fla. on Tuesday, Alabama head coach Nick Saban addressed the rumors that he was interested in the Texas head coaching position a couple years ago left open by Mack Brown and eventually taken by Charlie Strong. Apparently his new book talks about his agent's discussions with the Longhorns.

“I have an agent (Jimmy Sexton), which most coaches have, and when somebody is interested in you, they call your agent, which they did,” Saban said Tuesday night at the field house at the University of West Florida. “The agent calls you, and you tell the agent ‘I’m interested’ or ‘I’m not interested.’ So (Sexton) called me about 15 times about Texas, and every time he called I said I’m not interested in talking to them, and I never will be. That’s the story. He did his job, I did my job.”
