Nope..After he signs this extension..I would think it will pretty much keep Coach Saban at Bama & all but ensures he retires at Bama..The buyout should Texas come calling next year would astronomical I would think..
What I heard which gave me concern was accurate and reliable. If you listen to the Phil Savage interview carefully, you'll see what I meant. However, as I said above, as it went on, I realized that he had put it behind him. And I posted that. I had come out strongly that he was going to stay. When I received the other information, I got uncomfortable out on the limb, so I had to do what I did. I hate to think of how I would have been crucified, if I had stayed with the position of 100% staying and he had moved in spite of his comments. Therefore, I had to post what I did. Same circumstances arise again, I'll do the same. I had worried what might happen, if CMB stayed another year. There's no doubt that, if he leaves, they'll make another run at Saban. I think now, barring bad developments inside our AD, he is ours until retirement. Let us remember that hindsight is always 20-20...
I was told it's short for 'tea sippers', based on the the idea that the shorthorns consider themselves 'above' others, thus sitting about sipping tea like British royalty.
