To answer the question in the OP, no, he wouldn't turn it down. IF (massive IF) Texas offered that amount, Bama would match and he would accept the Bama offer of $70M.







If it got down to a bidding war, Bama is losing that. No one in the country has deeper pockets than Texas and its not close.

That being said I don't see any of this ever happening.

If it got into a bidding war it isn't going above $10M. It likely wouldn't go above $8M. Saban currently makes like $6M and will likely get a bump to $6.5M.

I think most in college know that Saban is at Bama for the long haul. They've known that since 2011 when Texas first measured his interest. The NFL learned that this year.
