The main difference at Bama is that we've been burned pretty badly by boosters, and a lot of their involvement has amounted to jack shite in terms of football success, so they were relatively easily pushed aside.
Just supposing, what if those same boosters who have sat back and kept their mouths shut over the last six years suddenly started opening them again after the Iron Bowl loss? Maybe the return of booster meddling has begun, and Saban may be considering whether or not its worth it to stick around for what will likely be a down year by his (and Bama's) standards?
Just supposing, mind you.

Y'all are some gullible fricks. He ain't resigning. Saban is not going to Texas.

The only thing that annoys me about all this is the claims that UT is so much more a destination job than Bama. I don't care for most Bama fans (seriously, almost all of them suck amazingly bad), but it's one of the most storied programs ever, and they have money, even if it's not what UT has. But having money doesn't change history. If he leaves, it's not for the goal of succeeding at a prestigious football school. He's already done that. It would be for money and the challenge of succeeding at three different great football schools.
I think this may be an issue that is somewhat undervalued when trying to assess Saban's motivation for possibly leaving.
Right now the state of Alabama can proudly boast that it's football teams have set the standard for excellence in the country. Aside from that the general perception of the state of Alabama throughout the country is very negative and for very good reasons.
There is absolutely nothing else positive to focus on in the state of Alabama besides football and therefore the pressure is immense and fans borderline crazy. Thanks not to say that Texas isn't crazy about football and the expectations won't be high, but it's not the absolute only thing the entire state depends on.
I also wonder with Saban being Catholic how much the Christian Talibanners and their delusional paranoia and fear mongering might be pushing he and his wife away.

My parents live in Alabama. I can tell you that it is very likely a palpable concern. That place is religiously extremist and weird. With that said, he is one of their Holy Saviors which also fits his ego so maybe it balances out.

I can't wait for Saban to leave these gumps

It's the coaching changes board. A coach from a major university is resigning. It is stickied so we don't have multiple threads started on the same subject and so people can see the top stories.

You do realize the ignorance of that post I hope.
Posted on 12/12/13 at 9:47 pm to TigerFred
Who says he is resigning? Not him. Not any known official at UT? Who? Some anonymous message board poster? Some "source"?
Posted on 12/12/13 at 9:51 pm to nc14
No your post is not ignorant it is flat out stupid.

So because Mack Brown hasn't had a press conference to announce that he is going to resign at a press conference, the rest of the nation is supposed to stick their head in the sand like a bama fan and ignore it?
Gotcha. You guys have gone way beyond being idiots now.

And Texas is calling in as many former players to the banquet tomorrow night, because Mack is going to have 10 or so more of those.
- we can debate who's next, but MB? He definitely going to be doing something other than coaching the Longhorns - and I'm talking in days, not weeks or months.
