$50 Million Offer
If you haven't already, you may want to read this article on the ridiculous offer we made to Saban. $50Million, are you kidding me? What kind of monster have we created with this whole mess? I'm afraid our impatience with Shula, the quick-fix attitude all of us seem to have, and the pressure being put on the school to find the next coaching god is going to come back to haunt us sometime in the future. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't see many coaches dying to come to Bama, even if the offer is $50 mil.

In my opinion, the only person who needed evaluate his performance is Mal Moore. The university of Alabama was put on probation on his watch. He hired MIke Dubose and his choice of coaches led to schlorship reductions and high school talent goint to other schools. You do not hire coaches who give big raises to female staff members who are "good friends" with the head coach. You do not hire a coach who hires "call girls" on the university credit card. Shula had turned that around. Shula was not allowed enough time to develop his talent. You can inquire of any coach and they will tell you that you do not win with freshmen and sophmores, you win with upperclassmen. Instead of giving Coach Shula enough time to completely turn the corner, he bowed to pressure from the alumni. He certainly is not man enough to do his job. Yet another mistake by Mal Moore.
