I think you are being sarcastic but not sure. Nick staying to coach the sugar bowl and then bolting is highly unlikely. But it would be interesting around here if that happened
I don't want to totally back off my stance from a week ago when I was 70/30 Saban leaving so I'm trying to see his behavior from the leaving for Texas perspective. I'm just having a hard time seeing the logic of a coach who has apparently been working back channels to leave for Texas even before the regular season staying on to coach the bowl game and THEN leave. I think it could still happen but this week (Dec 16-Dec 22) is by far the most logical time for a move to be made. Mack is now gone and there is no reason to delay an announcement especially from Saban's standpoint. He'd be far better off leaving now during the dead period and allowing Kirby Smart the opportunity as the interim coach for the Sugar Bowl. Waiting until January to leave makes his departure unnecessarily worse than leaving now.

Maybe it is more about waiting until after Texas's bowl game rather than after another team's bowl game?
Texas is more than likely going to lose. If someone is brought in as a homerun hire, then getting shite stomped by Oregon, in the state of Texas, would not be the best way to introduce that person.
