no, Saban's dream is to make more money than whatever he's making at the time a new offer hits the table he's left every job he's ever had for $ he'll leave this one if somebody offers him more $
He admits he isn't the driving force.... Hot Corner: Nick Saban talks up silent Smart | Scarblog - al.com - al.com ‘‘Bobby’s a great offensive coach. Kirby Smart’s the defensive coordinator here. He did a fantastic job of getting our players ready to play in this game. ‘‘I help him. I’m his GA (graduate assistant), and that’s it. All that got proven out there today is I’m a better GA than somebody else.” ----------------- But I have to wonder if he doesn't think he is the best speaker on the team. ----------------- It was nice of Saban to talk up Smart. It might be even nicer to let Smart, and the other Alabama assistants — every one of them a grown man — speak publicly for themselves.
How much was Miami paying him to be a head coach? $5 million per year? And he left to go to Bama and only make $4 million per year? the Miami Dolphins have officially offered Nick Saban the job as Head Coach, via Saban's agent. The deal is worth an estimated $5 million per year Jan. 4, 2007 -- MONTGOMERY, Ala. - In a poor state that struggles to fund public schools, the $4 million a year offered to the University of Alabama’s new football coach sent the wrong signal to some. “That certainly makes a strong statement in a state that funds education at one of the lowest per-pupil rates of any state in the country,” said state Rep. Richard Lindsey, D-Centre, chairman of a House committee that writes the education budget. “I think we’ve let it get out of hand.” Many Crimson Tide fans cheered the hiring of Nick Saban — who took a cut from his $4.5 million salary to leave the Miami Dolphins for Alabama. http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/16472828/
you gotta look at total numbers was an $18-$25 million deal at Miami $32 million deal at Bama 32 is more than 25 5 year contract at Miami 8 year (since extended) at Bama 5 is more than 8 had multiple bosses at Miami he is the boss at Alabama
thats a pretty terrible way to evaluate contracts. ok, you get coach k's contract. i get a-rods. the only reason he went to miami was because they gave him full control.
only way Coach K is gonna catch A-Rods total dollar (on his current contract) amount is if he coaches for another 48 years. don't know if he's gonna live long enough to do that. and then took it from him when they hired Mueller as GM.
