Scratchtown Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 There are reports and rumors ... no one knows yet. Is saban waiting to announce because Texas has a game this weekend? Also, What are the chances he jumps to Texas, and knowingly, that the SEC is about to pick up Texas? hmm? Thoughts. Quote Link to comment
WoodyHayes1951 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 where has it been mentioned that Texas is joining the SEC? Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Texas would go independent before joining SEC I think Saban would go back to NFL before Texas Bill Callahan would look good in Burnt Orange........ Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 The asshats at shaggybevo seem to think this rumor has legs. LINK Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 And I thoutht we were overly optimistic at times Quote Link to comment
fro daddy Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 hard to believe that saban would leave bama. But who knows. He has never stayed any where for very long. I seriously doubt Texas to the SEC. They are not keen on add teams from the same states. And if that ever bends there seem to be a ground swell that would support FSU and Clemson over anyone else.

AgMarauder04 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 1. Alabama would mortgage the state to keep Saban there, and UT could still outbid them. If Saban is ready for a new challenge or is tired of the bama fanbase (probably the dumbest in the nation, he might switch. He is, however, pretty old. I would put the changes at him going to Texas around 35%. 2. The SEC will not accept any other schools in the current footprint. Today's conference landscape is all about influence and TV sets. It's why the B1G added Maryland and Rutgers. It's why IF the SEC expands again, they'll want VaTech and UNC or NC State. Quote Link to comment
Nobody Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 how many times does this make for the saban to texas rumor? Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 About the 4th time. Saban isnt going to Texas, Texas isnt joining the SEC. Mack Brown will probably be coach next year. Texas would sooner go indeoendent than follow A&Ms lead. Quote Link to comment
Ulty Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 how many times does this make for the saban to texas rumor? We should start a new thread in order to answer this question... But first, we need to gather some fresh opinions on whether or not Pelini should be fired and whether or not Martinez is a good QB. Quote Link to comment

StPaulHusker Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I could see Texas joining the SEC just so they could force A & M to play them every year again. Quote Link to comment
AgMarauder04 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 SEC would never allow it. Quote Link to comment
Stumpy1 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 The lastest thing to be said about Texas is Gus Malzahn wants the job if Mack gets kicked to the curb. The thought of that scares me more then Saban going there. Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 SEC would never allow it. Hey Aggies question. Florida has FSU, Scar has Clemson, Georgia has GA Tech. All out of conference games, all rovalry weekend games. Would a&m want Texas back for rivalry weekend if the schedule would allow it? Quote Link to comment
