Alabama has 15 National Championships under 5 coaches, UT has 4 under 2
Quote from: MakeItRain on September 10, 2013, 10:15:52 AMAlabama has 15 National Championships under 5 coaches, UT has 4 under 2Fair enough. Maybe I am not being smart here, but Alabama type production is what I would expect out of a texas with a Saban.
UT views themselves above selling their soul to a devil like saban.

I can think of a lot of things that Alabama Football has that Texas Football doesn't.Maybe my opinion is bias given I don't know a lot about the state of Alabama. That said, Texas is growing faster than any other state in the nation, has an already huge pop, has a lot of money, and a large portion of that population would do whatever they could to their children to make them good at football. Other than the growth thing, this may be applicable to Alabama too. Alabama does have what is viewed as the better conference and is viewed as the pinnacle of athletics right now, but Texas is primed to match that quickly if someone like Saban took over, imo.From a recruiting standpoint, Texas and Alabama are virtually equal. Both schools can have pretty much anyone they want and are only limited by the coaching staff's ability to evaluate talent. Texas is a better job because of the money and the prestige. I'm not sure if that is enough to pull somebody away from a job where he is already winning the national championship just about every year.Yeah, but a lot of guys don't want to deal with the LHN stuff. They don't want open practices, they don't want all of the coach's corner type shows, etc.Nick Saban would walk into the LHN studios on Day 1 with a bat, go HAM on it Joe Pesci style, and then never walk back in there.You have to find a good coach that's comfortable in front of a camera. That's why the Gruden idea is really intriguing.

Then again half of 15 is still a shitload of real Natty's.
CTR tickets on StubHub have dropped about $20 in the last couple days. I expect them to continue plummeting. BTW, if you're curious about going and want to sit in the purple sections, the visiting fans sit in sections 120-123 and then one lowly guy on the lower level, Section 32.
I would kill to see UT drop a brinks truck on Sumlin's lawn and get him. Would be rough ridin' amazing.

Saban would be played by Billy Bob Thornton Robert Wagner in a movie.

If Mack beats KSU, all will be forgiven and Rick Perry will name Sept 21st Mack Brown Day in Texas.
