How is Saban still being talked about? Do people think he still will leave Bama? I can't see him leaving. Think it will be Strong.
only one person on planet Earth is talking about Saban to Texas and thats @dtownreppin214.

Strong could have his presser, sign the contract and Dtown gonna still talk about "Saban is considering."

@dtownreppin214 wasn't lying. Sabans offer was still on the table. I don't think he ever actually signed that extension and even if he did there was no buyout. Saban was #1, Fisher #2 and Strong was #3. What sped up the timeline was Al Golden being offered the Penn St. position which meant Strong would likely be offered the Miami position. Patterson(AD) couldn't risk waiting on a decision from Saban and Fisher and losing Fisher in the long run so the trigger was pulled.

my guy just said we got turned down, flat out. sexton and patterson are close from patterson's nba days. he tried to rekindle the fire, practically begged the past few days, but fact of the matter is, mack brown and deloss dodds soiled saban/sec's image to president powers. after that saban signed the new contract and it was an uphill battle from there. congrats to bama for keeping their coach, i'm happy with mine.

don't think we were worried about miami. they are cheap. even louisville can outbid miami.

He was using y'all to get more money.
he had legitimate interest, there is no harm in admitting that.

Wasn't worried about a bidding war, more worried about him accepting that position(Miami) before we formally offered, if we had too. Earliest we could have interviewed Jimbo would be Tuesday of next week.
