That's fine. But, they didn't say "Oh, well he will cost too much, let's go plan D or E." Or, "He's going to want an insane amount of administrative control and operational discretion, so, let's go further down the list until we are comfortable with the cost scenario."

Mal still had to go to Miami and do some convincing and make some concessions, even with Saban ready to hit the eject button.

ok now this part is dead on. bama instantly made saban the highest paid coach in CFB with an 8 year deal worth $32M.

$4M a year sounds funny now, but the actual number is irrelevant, the point is they paid more than anyone else.

if theres a guy we want, we need to pay him.
