re: Interesting Nick Saban comparison

Six natties but no playoff stats of course and much fewer draft picks. He tended to win with guys who weren't necessarily NFL material.

Makes sense.. now that he is retired, I am curious if he will ever talk about the Texas opportunity.. was he close to accepting the job? if so, how close?

There are people on the Texas side adamant that he was coming.. and then Mack threw a hissy fit about all of it which caused Saban to say.. yeah, no thanks.. but I have no idea if any of that is true or not.. It would just be interesting to hear his version of the story..
