He was born in 1951, so unless you are using some new sort of math, that would make him 62. I still think this is his final job.Spence wrote:Sounds like he is looking for a "special raise " from Alabama for accepting the speical pressure. He is not going anywhere. Sabin is 67. I don't see him wanting to rebuild Texas, though he could if he wanted.
Saban....Longhorns?

Re: Saban....Longhorns?
Sorry, I heard on the radio this week he was 67. I thought he looked pretty good for 67.

true, but less so.

Re: Saban....Longhorns?
Would you rather have to run the table in the SEC or the Big 12? I don't believe the SEC is the premier conference but perception is a precursor to reality and the SEC has had that perception for long enough for impressionable young minds to start making it a reality. At Texas, he would have the same caliber recruits as the SEC but not the same schedule. Meyer got his fame and glory and jumped ship to The OSU and I wouldn't be surprised if Saban did it especially considering how much Texas is willing to pay. He would get an awfully obscene number.

Re: Saban....Longhorns?
That maybe true . . . but last I heard, Saban is off the table, so Texas has started courting Art Briles.

They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.
The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.
See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

Re: Saban....Longhorns?
Mack's contract runs through 2020, and he is always vocal about having no desire to do anything else. They would have to pay Mack an absurd amount of money to fire him, then pay Nick an absurd amount of money to replace him.
Re: Saban....Longhorns?
Yep....but then Texas has an absurd amount of money....
