So apparently Texas is the only place Nick Saban will leave Alabama for, and he's "feeling the pressure" at Alabama. As if somehow Texas will be less pressure. Whole thing sounds like Saban is trying to squeeze some more cash from Bama, because obviously Texas will sign a blank cheque if he wants it.
Quote:
The agent for coach Nick Saban told Texas officials in January that Texas was the only school he would consider leaving Alabama for, and his success with the Crimson Tide had put him under "special pressure," The Associated Press has learned.
The agent, Jimmy Sexton, made the comments during a 45-minute call with former Texas Regent Tom Hicks and current Regent Wallace Hall. Hicks detailed the call in a Sept. 24 email that was obtained Tuesday by the AP through an open-records request.
"Sexton confirmed that UT is the only job Nick would possibly consider leaving Alabama for, and that his success there created special pressure for him," Hicks wrote.
