    Interesting read from this week's monday morning quarterback:


    I would think Stoops was one of them but maybe I'm wrong. I don't think Les was one. It sure would be interesting to know.

    I read that and immediately thought of Houston Nutt, though he wasn't a Top 10 coach. Tubberville maybe?

    With Jerry Jones...does he mean finishing in the Top 10? Or, had coached a team in the Top 10 at one point in his career? OR, could it just be Jones being Jones?

    One of them was Saban. In fact, he initiated the contact. This comes from a very reliable source.

    Contacted Jones...asked Jones for 4.5 a year with total control...OH, no pro players...only college kids or rookies.

    :lol: :lol:

    One of these days hopefully you guys will get over that "delusional Bama fans re: Saban thread!" :thumb:

    I could see it being Pete Carroll(although the learning on the job thing flies in the face of that) but I could see that. He'd be in the spotlight, have an owner who would do anything to win.
