Offer Saban 6-7 milllion???

[VolPhin865]

Its funny how fans at all schools want loyalty from coaches but will not show loyalty in return after some bad years. I'm not saying that Fulmer should be retained but lets recognize that "only sense of loyalty... to himself" is sort of a dumb standard.

when bail on a team every 2-4 years, I think it is a very valid standard

saying Spurrier is not a winner is ignorant

How 'bout "Has not been a winner since leaving FL."?

And it gets worse the more recently you make the assessment.

Mr. Money bags had taken Bama to #2 in his second year.

I do not think Saban will leave bama for a while. I am afraid he will be around a while.

 

[champyvol]

Get the big money boosters together and go for THE MAN. Lets crap or get off the pot!!!!!

saban is the best coach in college football. not even close.

 

[GOT TWELVE?]

That Saban guy, he's "ok".

Have the school attorneys been able to wriggle out of that contract that Steve Spurrier signed yet?

The ink has been dry on that settlement for over a year now.

Good post...someone with a clue.

I think he will settle in and win a couple titles and etch his legacy in Crimson.....

Wanting Spurrier is ignorant.

 

[VolsRule]

If Saban wins the national title this year or next (which is likely), look for some NFL owner to come calling again, offering the moon ($7-8 mil, etc.), which Saban would look at carefully.

 

[timmy]

Offer Saban $1 more than his current contract and he's interested. $2 more and he's on a plane.

Then Saban would just leave again but if he leaves the program in as good shape as LSU and Bama.... who cares?

Good point.

Saban took a paycut to come to Bama.

 

[ANTI-DAWG]

No...He's got that horrible Bama smell that never comes off...Why hire a prostitute to coach your school for a couple of years when you know he'll leave at the first decent offer?...Don't even bring his name back up again, Makes me want to puke a little lol

Yeah lets keep Fulmer cause we know noone will come head hunting for him!:dance:

 

[ANTI-DAWG]

Good post...someone with a clue.

I agree why would he leave!

 

[Zuter]

I agree why would he leave!

True dat...he's basically a god in Alabama. After the last decade he could require a sacrifice of firstborn males and get it.

 

[VolsFanRJ]

We might be able to get Pete Carroll for around 5 million a year. I would rather have him for 5, than Saban for 6 to 7.

 

[Plunder]

He would be the last coach I would want but he wouldn't leave now anyway....I suspect he is not anxious to go thru another scenario of making himself look like a greedy, low-life like he did when he left Miami. There are other great coaches that we could pursue like Muschamp, Butch Davis, Bill Cowher or Jon Gruden....any one of these would be preferable.

 

[3L with debt]

How is getting paid millions for lousy results and refuse to leave any less greedy?

 

[HIGHTIDE]

:bow2:

And worth every penny...in fact we may give him a raise! Y'all don't want Saban he likes playing smashmouth football...he just wouldn't fit into your finesse offensive philosophy.
