It was told to me that that was the pecking order only because of the $2,000,000 buyout. At the end, half of the board of trustees were willing to wait on Nick's word that he would negotiate the contract. The other half went with Rodriguez. They are passing the hat for that buyout.

The courtship began in earnest after the Mississippi State loss with Saban. There is no doubt in my mind that if Alabama had handled this different... Shula coaches thru Dec 29th and then they fire him after the game.. Saban would have been the coach of Alabama. Even so, it came very very close even to the point that he said no yesterday morning and came back and said yes that afternoon. By that time, they had offered the job to Rodriguez.

:dis: :dis: :dis: Saban was never going to coach at Bama even if it was handled another way. Sexton was just throwing his clients name around and Saban already stated how he felt.

Saban said earlier Thursday that Alabama had contacted his agent regarding the coaching vacancy, but he wasn't interested.

"I'm flattered that they may have been interested in me, but it never really progressed, because we just never let it progress," Saban said after practice in Davie, Fla.

LET IT GO MAN.........JUST LET IT GO.......

Lou Saban served as the first Head Coach at SUNY Canton from 1995 until retiring in 2000. I guess maybe Bama could coax Lou out of retirement, but I heard Lou really likes money.
