I think it does. I'm sure many disagree or don't believe there is any chance he leaves.
I think and have thought he is going to Texas. Makes perfect sense.

Your title don't make sense. Did you mean Texas in the title? To answer what I think you are trying to say is I don't think it has any bearing if Dan did leave at the same time however Dan isn't going any where this year.
I do think there are some legs to the rumor about Saban. I give it a 40% chance he leaves. He has to think about it if Texas is wanting him and they are comming up with the money. He could build a program at Texas as good as Alabama and the road the NC will be made even easier being in the Big 12.
Yep, sorry. Should read When Saban goes to TEXAS....

I think it doesn't matter who you are, if you have a shot at hiring Saban you go for it and Brown's recent history isn't doing him any favors.Quote:

I feel like he likes the building process better than the maintaining. Once he's got it built to a perennial contender, I don't think there's enough of a challenge there to keep him fully entertained. just my opinion.
Think this is right on.

If I were Saban I'd make sure Texas hired some sort of personal security for him. Those Bammer fans would go bananas if he left... and they're certified crazy.
IF he goes to Texas, who does Bama hire? That would be a tough follow. Who would want to deal with all that crap?
As in a roster full of 5-stars? I'm sure there would be plenty takers. If the coach has a pulse, he'll win big for 2 yearsQuote:

If Saban goes to Texas, will Bama take his statue down?
Kirby Smart. Saban has been grooming him for years. Kirby is who I'd want if we miss on Hud.Quote:

Saban has as much chance of being at Armstrong Jr High next year as he does Texas

For .... little old Austin, Texas
Its not gonna be for the lifstyle
Its not gonna be for all the money
Its not gonna be for the chance to add to his legacy.
Its not gonna be because Univ of Texas can write any ticket it wants
No, it will be because of ALL of the ABOVE ! ! !
Exactly.
