Alabama AD Bill Battle on Saban: "He's working his butt off on recruiting. We're focused on recruiting and playing Oklahoma."

Alabama AD Bill Battle: "There are segments of our industry that require market-driven salaries" Hmm, wonder what he might mean by that

Asked about the status of extension talks, Battle repeated: "The Sugar Bowl is where his efforts are and that's where mine are."

This means absolutely nothing - it's a great PR cover response

That means the contract on Saban's desk says that they'll make him the highest paid coach in the country. Now he is going to Texas to find out what the market will dictate that number will be.

If Saban were leaving, the AD would not come out at this point and flat out deny it like battle just did. Saban is stayin'

Nick Saban was supposedly visiting Leonard Fournette this morning.

Leonard Fournette tweets constantly. 2 dozen or so tweets in the last 6 hours.

Zero mention of Saban. A little bit odd.
