College coaches across the nation are probably salivating. Not at the chance to coach at TExas or USC, though I am sure many would love the chance. Think of the bump in salaries for coaches that perform. ADs will be trying to secure the loyalty of their coaches in the preferred method, cash. It is going to be a hell of a show. Rumors will fly from Saban and to MAC coaches. This has to be a nightmare for ADs across the country.

Yeah, but Chizik has a national championship on his resume.

And so does Fulmer, who also already likes orange.

Wonder what Slocum is up to these days.

Saban: Oh and Bill, Texas offered me a $40 mil signing bonus and $7 mil a season. See if we can work that in on a new extension that would be grrrrreat. mmmmmmm k.

might be a little larger this yr. This is going to be nice for a lot of coaches. Strong, FRanklin, Peterson, Patterson, Briles, etc.. Leverage has changed. 2 premiere programs (historically speaking) are rumored to be looking (keep in mind both teams could win out and this is nonsense, unlikely but possible)

In response to the original question, I'm sad. Lane Kiffin is one of my favorite coaches. I would love to have him coach at USC forever.

Fine with me. It's been proven in the past he brings in more money than he makes.

But fair warning, you are starting to get into moral victory bob territory.

No moral victories. I was simply thinking "damn, this is a good yr to be a college coach". Kind of like when the Yankees are planning to be involved in the free agent mkt. Comments have nothing do with Bama, Saban is jsut one of the rumors and an easy target. If things go bad over the next couple weeks the talk is going to get deafening. It will become a major distraction for a lot of top 20 teams and a headache for ADs
