If Saban Is Staying At Bama Why Hasn't He Signed His Contract Extension?

That is the most telling fact in this whole affair. It's the one thing the Bama tards have no answer for.

Edit: I added extension to be more precise

He hasn't been in Tuscaloosa. He was recruiting and now he's at the Award Show.

But I haven't been tracking his flights I don't know.

Because he is on the road recruiting lights out before the quiet period? Make sense or does it need to be dumbed down further?

Do you know for a FACT he has one in front of him? Or are you basing this off rumors.

Do you know there is one to sign? Because there isn't one, per Finebaum who's the only one I've heard mention it. They have a verbal agreement on a new one but are ironing out details. In other words, Sexton is making sure he leverages everything he can.

Because he doesnt live with the fragile feelings of Bama fans foremost on his mind at all times?

Already under contract until 2020 so whats the fricking rush?

Wants his agent and lawyer to review it first?

Likes ti keep his name on the front page of ESPN while he is out recruiting?

Likes not having in state rival in the news while he is out recruiting?

That several reasons right there and there are probably several more Im not considering.

I love these gumps saying its because he has been "on the road"

If the guy wanted to sign the contract, they would have arranged for it quickly.. to shut everybody up

It aint happenin though

Lets take a step back and analyze. Saban is very methodical. He doesn't make hasty decisions. He is also very smart so he definitely could be using the Texas interest as leverage. He needs to figure out his 5 year plan. I think he also realizes that this will be his last flirtation in his career. In the past he has been bored in one place too long. However he has a monster running on all cylinders at bama. Texas could be interesting bc they are the only school he would consider jumping to at this point in his career. It's like dating a great girl. No matter how awesome she is there is always the allure of the next best thing. He just needs to weight his priorities and decide. Neither decision will be a bad one.

He's slow-playing Bama. He knows they'll dig deeper into their pockets the longer this UT stuff gets dragged out.
