Mushcamp to Texas?

[Kid Vicarious]

Beat me to it

So Texas would buy out Saban's contract and pay Mack for his contract... and then pay Saban close to 6 million... that's one expensive transaction. I don't think it happens. Saban isn't leaving... not yet at least.

Macks buy out is like 2.75mm, it is not a big number

Keep dreaming.

University of Texas regent talked to agent for Alabama Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban - ESPN

Who's dreaming. Bama is already talking to Stoops.

Smart would prolly take over. I'd rather that than Stoops. And you're still dreaming.

Breaking news: The University of Texas has offered to buy Alabama. The whole state.

Saban's contract runs to 2020 if I remember correctly and he makes close to 6 now or will by next year with the increases, why would he switch for the same pay and a bigger challenge to start over from scratch. It would take him two years to get the players on the team that he needs to run his offensive and defensive system and even then there is no depth. I dont see it, but if he leaves, we know who his replacement should be and he is currently on staff.

Texas might have issues, but money is not one of them.

The difference between them and the second best earner (ohio state) is more money than half the athletic departments in college football.

And that is not even counting the LHN money which has yet to be factored in for official bookkeeping.

As it stands now, they give over half of the LHN to the school. They don't even need the cash from that so they just give it back to the school as a charitable donation of sorts.

Yea, Saban makes what? 5.6? 5.4? I just don't see it happening. Although Saban does like a challenge and i know he wouldn't have a problem turning Texas around in no time.

I think he has said it himself that he has plenty of challenges where he is and money is not his biggest concern. He should be around those figures currently with step ups each year plus bonuses for winning certain levels such as SECCG and BCS. He has made over 6 each of the last two years easily, so why take a step back, it will have to be more than 6 if he leaves.

I'm surprised Houston Nutts name hasn't came up yet.

I dont know, ESPN tweeted its possible and we all know they are never wrong

 

[WB1214]

I think Petrino would be a good fit

Or maybe Kiffin after he is fired from USC this year

 

[bamabear82]

There could be a peewee soccer team in Uganda looking for a coach and Nutts name would come up. That Sexton is great at throwing names out there.
