If it got down to a bidding war,


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. Now if only we could ever convince rival fans who are so desperate for him to leave of what college powers and NFL teams have come to accept...

The 1st offer from the boosters was $7.5 mil. They've had to up it to $10 mil to keep in the game. If they were to pull it off, it would be like a coup. The AD & Brown are both aware of the shenanigans. Believe me, their eyes are wide open now, although Texas has never operated that way. These guys are rogues with big egos who've cut deals with international heads of state. They believe they can accomplish almost anything, but not everybody is on board.
