Bob Kravitz reports that Jim Irsay is willing to throw the kitchen sink to get Saban to the Colts, including full power for all personnel. Interesting.

Hope. Mario gets promoted. Has connections to Bama now and has learned under Saban.
Good point. Clearly Mario would be the front runner for the Bama job if it opened due to the reasons you mentioned, right? I mean that's the line the Mario supporters have been feeding us for why he should get the UM job.
 
Dominos would fall like crazy if that happened. Alabama would go after McElwain or Jumbo. Would UF consider Strong at this point if McElwain bolted?

As great as the retards here think Mario is - he'll be the next Head Coach at Alabama.

Don't think saban goes. He's got a plum job at bama

He really has it made at Bama. He's getting $6M/year, plus the $3M+ mansion where he lives in Tuscaloosa is paid for by the Bama boosters. I don't think he goes back to the NFL. He's too much of a control freak, it's easier to control 18-22 year old kids and get them to do what you want when they're trying to get to the NFL versus a bunch of guys who have already made it and are making more money than you. Besides, giving a coach GM powers doesn't usually work out the way teams hope. Just look at Chip Kelly in Philly right now.
 
jim irsay is a moron. if you want a disciplinarian who doesnt relate to anyone just hire:

Plum job and currently only 2 NFL coaches makes more than him...

But that's not how these guys think. They're looking for the next challenge. Money is no object and he isn't looking for an easy, comfortable job. If Saban wins another title this year, he will look at it as though he conquered this level.
 
Unlike the dolphins situation this time around he steps in with a quarterback.....and this one doesn't graduate in 4 years

I wouldn't be surprised if his stint with the Dolphins left him bitter and he would love another opportunity to prove he can coach in the NFL. If he does go, hopefully he takes Mario with him so we never have to hear that name again

Bro, that will just improve the Mario lore bro
 
Watching Saban fail again and losing the "...but he didn't have a QB" excuse would be extra sweet. Especially because it'd tarnish his legacy as he either ages out of coaching or has to scramble back to an opening in the $EC as he pushes 70 yrs old. It'd also be an amazing ****show to watch him go down in flames this time with a maniac owner like Irsay publicly questioning him or creating controversy. Lil Nicky has never really had anybody antagonize him let alone a guy with more power. Huizenga almost kissed his a$$ all the way to Tuscaloosa so this wouldn't be the same type of deal.
