I wonder if he’s providing a disclaimer to LK and Sexton.

“This is a paid endorsement”

I have the same question, to be honest. We think Saban has some kind of romantic connection to LSU, but he has been at Bama 18 years and is still on their payroll.


because his name is Nick fricking Saban and he can do whatever he wants

If this is true it lowers my opinion of Saban a bit.

And if Lane finds out that his "mentor" is being paid seven figures to steer him in a certain direction (which he totally would find out) that seems like a net negative for our lads in P&G.

I dont buy it

are you suggesting that LSU is paying Saban a $1million fee to help with the new head coach search?
I thought I had heard and seen it all at LSU, but this is way beyond anything I could ever conceive. They must have money trees somewhere on campus.
Just more insanity coming from my alma mater.
I can tell them who to hire for NOTHING.
Its Alex Golesh....and don't look back.

Then I wonder why he got on national television to posit that ole miss was just as good of a job as LSU now, in the NIL era….

He was strongly advocating that Kiffin stay at ole miss, on national television

Saban's existing consulting contract with Alabama would prevent him from formally helping with the LSU search. It's the definition of conflict of interest

Doesn't mean he can't say good things about us to candidates in his individual capacity, but there is no chance of a formal arrangement that would entail fees

I trust that fee includes like a year long worth of consulting

helping us find a coach, that would be rediculous

we need consulting on roster management
how to set up the organization

how to improve the game day experience for fans

from A to Z help us with football operations!

His other choices after Kiffin is Drinkwitz, Key and Brohm that he advised them to hire according to radio show I listened to.

Cig is my dream coach. They should buy out his new contract if they got the money they actually like they do
