Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 3699524, member: 652"] This is pattenly false. Saban runs the entire operation. When he came in he told the boosters he was in charge. They have to keep him happy. 3 years ago Texas back channeled an offer to Saban 10 years 150 million before they hired Tom Herman. Saban didn’t want to go Austin because he had complete control of the boosters in Alabama by that point and didn’t want to have to do that again in Texas. When he literally doesn’t pay for anything in Alabama. The Tide boosters pay his mortgages on his property, pay for his cars, pay his for private charter plane service with Wheels Up, pay for his country club membership. The boosters do whatever he says and whenever he says it while staying out of his way because of the success he has had. Doug Marrone nice coach he isn’t replacing Saban. Bama will try to hire Sweeney from Clemson because he is an alum. If he says no then nobody has a clue. [/QUOTE]
