re: Why Texas Was So Sure They'd Get Nick Saban

There is nothing plausible about this:

quote:

---

- Ensure that Mack Brown was on board with the move

- Pay 2X the salary he made at Alabama

- Give him an unlimited payroll budget for assistant coaches

- Offer a 10-year guaranteed contract, whether he retired or not.

Texas was prepared to meet these conditions, setting up the biggest coaching coup in college football history.

So dumb. "Sure, we're guarantee you one hundred million dollars, even if yo retire after one year!"
