    Did they then reach out to Sark? I'm betting they did.

    I am hearing he rebuffed them

    "We're Texas. We're better than Alabama. Come here and you'll be King"

    They refuse to listen to their fans who post "No way Saban comes here -Peace Out bros just cheer the team on!"

    I know once he won championships, it wouldn't really matter, but coaching at Texas is a different beast. You think Saban could handle five hours of media on Monday?

    Saban could win at any big program, but I can't see him enjoying coaching at Texas with all that comes with it. I guess 9 or 10 million could change that, and I am sure Texas would make some concessions to Saban, but I don't see him going to Texas.

    The second they offer him 9 to 10 million, Bama will offer him 9.5 to 10.5 million to keep him. I don't see Saban going to Texas.

    Looking at how shitty the Eagles appear since that first half on MNF vs a terrible team I think Chip Kelly will end up at Texas.

    Terrible team? The Chiefs? You must not watch sports center. I watched it last night and found out the chiefs are going to challenge the broncos and are a very good team.

    i'm not disputing your poast ... really i'm not.

    what do you mean by "all that comes with it."? I would think Bamers is twice the pressure cooker to win as compared to Tejas ese. seriously man ... if you can coach at Alabama, you can coach any fucking where. fuck I think there's more pressure at LSU.

    seriously. but for an anomalous blip otherwise known as the 2005 Texas Vince Youngs, they've been a back burner program for-ever, with the Holiday being a good year for them typically. fuck I'm old enough to remember the 1990 season and how fucking annoyingly enthusiastic they and everyone else were that Texas "is back" with Peter Gardere, the Cash twins and Stanley Richard, and they played Erickson's two loss Miami team in the Cotton and, despite an underachieving Miami handing them 220+ yards in taunting and personal foul penalties (giving birth to the Miami Rule), the short horns got absolutely plungered. I remember thinking, "why in the fuck does everyone act like these fuckers are a perennial?" They've had some good seasons, but to me they're a lot like Michigan ... big and rich enough, with enough old tradition, to always be able to recruit and compete, but they're very rarely going to get it done in a big way. their history is dusty and 2005 was out of nowhere and now they've reverted back to their mean. they're not "down", they're Texas.

    The Eagles did not play the Chiefs on MNF.

    There is no way Saban leaves for Texas and I doubt Texas is more of a pressure cooker than AL. I mean, look how Chizik got canned 2 yrs after winning an NC.

    Yikes man. Coaching at Bama is much TUFFer than coaching at Tejas.

    Bama would have fired Mack Brown years ago.
