The silence is called leveraging one job into a boat load of money for the current job.
So why is there a need to leverage if there is no other offer out there? That's all I'm saying. Some people are saying he would never leave Bama, this is a clown show, texas has not contacted anyone etc etc, if that were the case, why does Bama feel the need to give him more money, contract ext? Did loosing the Iron bowl justify that? I'm just saying there is something going on behind the scenes and there has to be some truth to the rumors out there.

It's been documented that Sexton has spoke to the UT admin. That's the beauty of agents, Nick can coach and Jimmy can talk to other schools. Sexton knows an offer is coming and once it's official, the number on Nicks extension will be doubled. Then he'll sign it. Rather simple.

This is not rocket science. Saban being offered another job does not = Saban leaving Bama. He is offered several jobs every year. Nor does Saban not immediately signing a contract extension = Saban leaving. Time is on his side. It's not like Bama is going to fire him if he does not sign the extension. He is already under contract for nearly a decade. The smart thing anyone would do in his shoes is let the offers pour in, stay quiet, sign nothing, then use those offers to negotiate a raise at a job you already like.
