UT confident that Saban will take the job, but unsure how Alabama will react once Sexton shows Alabama what Texas has offered.
From what I understand, which admittedly is not very much, is that Alabama has promised to make Saban the highest paid coach in the country. Without an 'official' deal from Texas to be countered, they can not realistically make an offer that would fulfill this promise. Until Brown steps down, and Texas makes their offer known, Alabama can not put their own deal on the table.

If Texas goes big, Bama can't afford to match it.

quote:right...Bill Powers needs to sign the offer and he will not (cannot) do that until Mack is officially done. And Alabama cannot counter anything because there hasn't been a formal offer made by Texas. The contract sitting on Saban's desk now is essentially outdated and worthless...that's why he hasn't signed it.

Saban needs to tell them both to write their best offers on a blank piece of paper and slide it across to him. Face down. It could be covered live by both SEC network and Longhorn network. Now thats reality tv.
