At Texas the head coach is just that. If he wins a MNC, he may have a little more power. The money in Texas talks and it is huge. Something bama or almost anyone else (ND) can only wish for. Little Nicky is king at bama. He tells rich donors to STFU and they say yes sir. He couldn't do that at Texas and that is why he stayed put.

Well, it's like I've said. Part of the reason it was so easy for Saban to come in and do that is because our rich donors have been cowed over the last 20 or so years. They've seen their schemes blow up in their face and otherwise prove much less effective than they expected. Their meddling put Alabama in a really bad place.

Saban came at the perfect time to sweep them all off into the background.

Texas's cigars are a lot richer and a lot more arrogant (though I realize that, with money people, arrogance reaches a point of diminishing returns).

This isn't over just yet.

When you win big, early and often, you become king...

It's very simple and it works in any State or program..

Most people have a boss or bosses, even Nick.

The main difference appears to be that the Longhorns boosters have Jerry Jones-itis and appear to be very invested in everybody knowing that they're big shots while the Crimson Tide boosters seem very invested in simply building a winning program.

The correct answer.

Could Bama outbid Texas in a straight up war? No, but we'd make them get absolutely stupid on the dollar amount before we quit.

I think even the Texas people would balk at 15 mil a year. Even to look like the big shots.

Rejection syndrome lingering after 7 years plus years really screams for help.

You need to be honest with yourself and get help.

It's just a game, you don't really bleed purple and yellow. It may be hard for you to accept but you actually bleed crimson.

I assure you that if Saban brought 3 NCs in 6 years to UT, he'd be king there too. Mack's issue was 1 NC, and 2 conference titles in 16 years. Saban matched his conference titles in 6 years at Bama, and has 3 times as many titles in that same 6 year span.

Hell, btw LSU and Bama, Saban has had 4 conference titles and 4 NCs in 12 years, or one every 3 years.

Mack has 1 NC every 16, and 1 conference championship every 8 in a significantly weaker conference.

No shite, these swamptards are so desperate for Nick to leave Bama it has eroded away what little common sense they had to start.

It is really quite sad to see them fall this far, only a few years back they were an elite program filled with confidence, swagger and pride. Now they've become a desperate elite wannabe, only can hope that others to fall rather than they earn success. Really sad, they've become Arkansasesque .

Or he gave Texas an ultimatum to hire him by the start of the weekend before the dead period so he can recruit for Texas. When it wasn't met, he stuck with Alabama

The main difference right, I'd say, is Texas is the first school Saban ever said no to. Ouch. Let that one sink in for a minute.

From my years on this planet I've observed another difference between the two. Texas is in Mexico and Bama is in the great state of Alabama.
