I will say it rises a small concern that if he were highly successful, I have little doubt he leave for Alabama if offered. Now I don't see it ever getting to that point but it is something to consider.

With that said, if he was successful enough here to be considered as a replacement when Saban retires, then he'll surely leave our program in far better shape than he found it. So, at least in this regard, it's probably worth the risk.

Now, like I said, I unfortunately fear it's something we won't have to worry about.

If we hire Pruitt and he did well enough that in 3 years Saban retires and Bama was willing to drop $10 a year to get him to leave us - how absofriggenlutely lucky we would be.

Yeah.
Nick Saban is the ULTIMATE Bammer!

I never want him to coach Tennessee

Saban...by way of West Virginia Bammer...

GO AD FULMER AND GO VOLS!!

That's why we should take him.

And I know I rated Pruitt an 8 last night, but I had time to think since then.

Do we really want a Bammer coaching here? Is our pride that hurt? Look what happened when we had a Bammer AD (note: did hire Barnes after a few tries)...

who gives a **** as long as they win. I'd sell my soul to have Saban here winning championships at this point.

Actually the Bammer guys have a knack for discipline and not accepting mediocrity. IMO, being at Bammer perpared Pruitt and others.
