Regardless of where Saban ends up, this ordeal will be great for the pocket books of coaches everywhere. If Saban gets 10 or so million from Texas/Alabama, where will the rest of the top college coaches settle when they renegotiate contracts in the next few years?

2013 Salaries for reference:
1. Nick Saban Alabama $5,545,852
2. Mack Brown Texas $5,453,750
3. Bret Bielema Arkansas $5,158,863
4. Butch Jones Tennessee $4,860,000
5. Bob Stoops Oklahoma $4,773,167
6. Urban Meyer Ohio State $4,608,000
7. Les Miles LSU $4,459,363
8. Brady Hoke Michigan $4,154,000
9. Kirk Ferentz Iowa $3,985,000
10. Charlie Strong Louisville $3,738,500

I guarantee NFL owners do not want that large of a college contract to happen.

No one will surpass Saban. He is head and shoulders above the rest.

No matter what Saban decides, his new contract will push the college football coach's salary median way up. It's a game changer.

To be honest, the pay that these coaches are starting to get is crazy to begin with. If Saban were to get in the 10M range this will only serve to be a problem for college football down the road. Many programs will not be able to compete and quite frankly I am not glad this is happening. I am all for free market practices, but this will only harm college football in the long run.

Until their agent can negotiate from a point of 4 BCS championships, there is no next big coach
