I still can't belive some of them actually think Saban would leave Alabama, much less to go there.

Money talks. ESPECIALLY to Nick Saban.

Money talks. And, Saban's been known to hit the trail for higher pay.

I think it's more realistic for Texas to hire Bama's defensive coordinator Kirby Smart, though.

Yes, that sounds about right. JFF personally torched Alabama with 907 total yards in two games. Smart will fit perfectly with the horns.

I don't see horn fans agreeing with hiring Smart, I do but they want a big name

[VideoEagle]

The talk I've seen would be doubling Saban's salary to $10 million a year. Texas has the money to do that. 'Bama could match the offer I think they don't have the money Texas has to draw against.

Seriously. This is all you've got against Kirby Smart? Texas isn't going to play Manziel, are they? No.

Who else has "torched" Alabama since Smart has been there? By the three national championship rings on his fingers, I'd say no one else. The constant flow of Tide defenders to the NFL speaks highly of his coaching as well. Texas isn't quite sending as many to the NFL anymore.

Smart would be a great hire for Texas. Mack Brown's best years at UT came when he hired Will Muschamp and Gene Chizik - defensive coordinators from the SEC.

How about this number:

Mack Brown versus Bob Stoops/OU without Muschamp/Chizik: 1-8

Mack Brown versus Bob Stoops/OU with Muschamp/Chizik: 4-1

That alone should have the Longhorn money slobbering in Bama's direction. They've already tried to pry Saban out of Tuscaloosa. Getting Smart would be the next best thing.

*Mack Brown was 0-1 versus OU at North Carolina

*Mack Brown was 1-0 versus OU when they had John Blake as head coach

UT needs Dabo.
