hokie07 11 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 I saw somewhere online that if the price is right then Saban would seriously consider going to WVU. I don't remember the price or the source but I read it. Also, I saw that Alabama has no buyout on Saban's contract because of his already substantial salary. Not too sure of the credibility of the couple of things I just stated, but most everything at this stage of the game is hearsay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMan 3,569 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 WVU can't afford Saban...he's already making $3 million/year plus, from what I understand, he has a huge buyout clause which I don't think either he or WVU would want to pay...unless 'Bama is ready to let him go...

sandman 13 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Saban's contract at 'Bama is $32 million over 8 years not including bonuses and incentives. That's more money than the entire value of WVU's athletic deptartment. WVU needs to hire some bright, innovative young coach and just let the guy teach himself.

[/ QUOTE ] Alabama cannot garner a BSC game because of LSU and Auburn. My comment wasn't a shot at the mounties, but a comment on how 'Bama is paying throught the nose for years of arrogance. The thread had turned into "Saban to WVU" talk and that's what I commented on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me, there's more than just LSU and Auburn keeping the Tide back. Saban will probably succeed. That is, if the deluded folks in Tuscaloosa give him the chance...

I seriously hope they don't consider Bowden for the job. Big Dog Sports Talk mentioned that Bud Foster may be interested in the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetMoney55 11 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Saban is getting some decent recuits for next season. I think in two years, if he stays, they will be an above average team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
