Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
Because this guy has bet the whole house on snatching the Process.
And you know what? If you know anything about Texans, when they sign June Jones (or whoever), he'll insist that he was just playing everyone so they could "get who we really want." Even the lies are bigger out here.
I sincerely hope we have some folks who have saved screenshots of that moron in the event Saban stays.

Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
Those were the words finebaum chose while speaking figuratively, and, as people often do, the took him literally. Some people must think the school said " hey we'll leave this multi million dollar contract in your office while your out."

I agree with what you said the only problem with keeping your money in cash is that if the banking system fails the value of the money will probably be nothing. If I had a large amount of money I would keep invest in gold.

If CNS isn't happy about something in his program, by all means, I hope he gets that straightened out and resolved.
Oh I get that, and I agree, but hearing that "Saban is in talks about an extension" vs "UA has made Saban and offerand he will not sign it" - or worse yet - "Saban agreed to a new deal, but now won't sign it" are two totally different things and will be interpreted two totally different ways. That is what drives me nuts when you have people like Finebaum making a statement "there's a contract that has been sitting on his desk since Friday" when it is not true. That is what makes people freak out.

Please excuse my ignorance as I haven't read the entire thread Earle, but, who is Jesus Shuttleworth.. I take it he's ShortHorn homer..
Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
He is the guy that "broke" the Terry Saban house hunting deal and "reported" Saban's deal would be worth $10M per year $100M was a "done deal". He has been a major pot banger in the this thing. He had ominous post yesterday that he would be revealing his real name and would breaking the story of CNS coming to Texas today, but it didn't happen. I'm sure it drove lots of hits to his website though.:rolleye2:
Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
Yeah but make no mistake - he knew what he was doing (Finebaum I mean). It's his niche.
Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
Absolutely. He's the one who LAST WEEK claims to have had it on good authority from two of the original disciples and three infallible popes that Nick Saban was coming to Austin. Our boy UVB (Clay) did an article on him about five days ago saying he was "all in." If you suffer a severe attack of "lack of common sense," you can actually go read about it on UVBs site.
Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
That is not without risk at all, considering the current prices of gold, and, when precious metals crash, the recovery period tends to be measured in decades.
Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
Isn't much of this thread about Saban going to Texas rumors? I thought they closed a few other threads and deleted comments and stated no one could discuss sources or provide links, but it seems there are some links and source quotes. I am not saying this in a facetious manner, I am confused on the difference.

Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
It really is hard not to have a thread about this topic. This news is on many peoples mind and this site provides an avenue to discuss. I think as long as the discussion stays cool and does not get overly dramatic then the topic should stay open. It becomes a problem when people start posting crazy stuff and slamming the coach without any factional information. I have personally lived on this one topic for the past 2 days.
Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
Do y'all realize that if those two clowns known as UGA defenders had simply knocked that ball into the ground, we wouldn't be here with this thread (or the others) today?
We'd be getting ready for a three-peat and all this powder keg of news would be blown to shreds by the Man in Charge so as not to distract from his preparation for the BCSNCG. Auburn, not us, would be in this spotlight.
The fickle finger of fate gives some strange turns.

I think the gold investment tangent is the healthiest most rational tangent in any thread. No one has blamed bill battle or jimmy sexton for the price of gold.

AJ weighs in:
McCarron made his comments in advance of Thursday's College Football Awards Show. Saban is reportedly a target of Texas officials to be the school's next coach if Mack Brown is fired or steps down.
But the quarterback also added that he can't speak for his coach.
"To me, he's not leaving. That's my personal opinion," McCarron said Wednesday. "I can't speak on Coach Saban. I stay out of his business. But if I had a pick, I'd say he's not leaving."

Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
What else is he going to say? "I think he's leaving"? This all sucks
Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
However if you mean Saban is doing the seeking then that really concerns me....from an ethical and professional standpoint. I hope you meant the former scenario and not the latter.
If you are inferring that Utx and/or NFL orgs are causing the issue by aggressively and continually coming after CNS then I understand the delay in a signing. Sexton is trying to negotiate to get more $$$ from Bama for himself and CNS.

Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
Previously Earle has talked about UT being the suitor, not Saban.

Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
A top of the morning FWIW: the impressions of Leonard Fournette's coach after talking with Saban yesterday.
Conclusion: he's staying put.

Re: New Discussion Thread on Possible Coaching Changes...
1. Tell your agent that you're satisfied, sign the contract.
2. Tell your agent to try to get a little more out of UA; use texass as leverage. But you'd really rather be at BAMA
3. Tell your agent to get the best deal possible; don't care which side it's from. But I do know that after I ruffled the students' feathers; and after my wife called the UA fanbase 'unappreciative' , the UA will definitely make a sweet offer
