Scoop,

I hate to disagree with you but I think Saban is desperate to get out. The pressure and expectations at Alabama are unrealstic and ridiculous. It's a damned if you do and a damned if you don't situation because every coach is expected to be the second coming of Bear and will not be acceptable if they are not. I believe West Va is where sis family is and it is a university which is loyal to it's coaches. He could easily field a team there that is in the National Championship race regularly because it is a weak conference. I could actually see it happening and that would be the kind of job he would retire in. Also, do not forget that Saban does not need the money at this point and has NO BUYOUT at Alabama.

You are correct in the fact that he has no buyout, but he would have to find a way to "get out" of Alabama and that would be a problem.

We are actually holding him hostage here now. He has been trying to leave since the LSU game. He wouldn't let go of Miles after the game during the handshake and if you watch the video you can clearly see him begging Miles to let him ride home on the bus with the team. Miles is hard of hearing in his right ear which is apparent due to the fact that he thought Bo told him it was 3rd and ten instead of 4th and ten in the Arkansas game and he chose not to blitz. There is only one way out for Nick...Pinebox baby!!!

Well if you are right then he will leave, he has no buyout.

No their not, the only people that say that are LSU and Auburn fans.

Not true again, Stallings was/is loved. He is held in very high regard in Tuscaloosa and by fans statewide.

Then if he is so desperate to get out as you say, he will be gone this year. I have no idea if he is "desperate to get out" or not, why do you believe this.
