i have a feeling the money is gonna be to much for him to skip.


If he leaves it will be for the challenge, not the money. Bama will match any offer he gets. They won't allow fans to ever say "why didn't you match the offer?". Money will not be reason IF he were to ever leave, which I don't think he does at this point in his career, despite how desperately some people want it to happen.

I think he stays at Alabama, why would he want to tarnish his legacy with another failed attempt at the NFL. He's 61 and will probably win the national title this year and one more before he turns 65. I think he retires after that and I wouldn't blame him one bit. With that said coaches are a weird breed, they will literally coach till the day they die they love it so much.

This will be the ONLY reason imo. He knows he is viewed as a failure in the NFL I think sooner or later he will make another attempt in the NFL to solidfy his name.

While I do believe Little Nicky retires an elephant, I feel like its naive of anyone to think that his ego will not claw at him at some point to give it another shot. It's the only thing he hasn't been successful at (coaching wise). I don't think if it happens it will be about money.

100% agree. Hell bama boosters would come up with $10 mil a year if thats what it took.

IF Saban leaves (which i doubt) it damn sure won't be to the cowboys. No way would he want to deal with Jerrah. He would demand full control over all football operations, and thats not something Jerrah is going to relinquish.

Could not disagree more. Who are these "boosters" that are just going to pony up substantial amounts of their money to appease the whims and desires of a coach who is already handsomely rewarded for his services? What do they gain from this?
