Saban Rumors Again

One thing I hated about Saban when he was at LSU is at the end of each season, during recruiting, the rumors started to swirl about Saban leaving for the pros..........and he flirted every year with one or two before the Dolphins.

Bama fans don't fear the possibility of him leaving, but maybe they should. That's according to some sport's radio jocks over here in Alabama. They worry a little about Penn State when Joe Pa leaves, but their big worry is Our Lady (Notre Dame) if and when Charlie Wiese gets the boot.

Here's their reasoning:

1. Bama may think they are the be all and end all to college football, but deep down they even know that place belongs to Notre Dame. As these sport's radio jocks said, love them or hate them just like the Dallas Cowboys are America's Team so is Notre Dame College Football's America's Team. It is the pinnacle job in college football and would be attractive to a guy like Saban.

2. With the big NBC contract they have the $$$$ to give Saban whatever he demands in salary and facilities.

3. It opens up the whole nation to recruiting, something that would really appeal to Saban.

4. The guys say the Notre Dame fan base is more in keeping with Saban's personality. (They were trying to be nice to their Bama listeners. Translation is Saban rather not fool with all these gumps and rednecks. Rumor also has it that he, and especially Terry, are not real happy living in Tuscalooosa.....oh, I'm shocked)

5. Saban is Catholic. Maybe the Pope gives him a call.


If this happened this would absolutely crush the Bama Nation. Like lemmings they would commit mass suicide by marching into the Gulf at Orange Beach. They hate Notre Dame. The only school with more "legitimate" NC's then Bama, and the only school to have a winning record over the Bear. Not to mention the Bama Bible Belts hatred for all things Catholic. Wonder if Saban has to wear a disguise to go to Mass.

Oh well, let the rumors begin.
