Saban's Contract Approved

“The most valuable aspect of Saban’s extension is the formation of a $5 million ‘Contract Year Completion Benefit’ clause that will pay Saban a lump sum at three different times if he is still coaching the Crimson Tide. He would be due an additional $1.6 million in Jan. 2012, $1.7 million in Jan. 2015 and $1.7 million more in Jan. 2018.”
Oh and “ZOMG SABAN LIAR!! HE IS LEAVING BAMMER FOR NOTRE DAME DEAL WIT IT BAMMAERS !!!!111”

People really do need to get the F over it...
Everything in his career trajectory was up, up, up…then, he founds something he loved and came back to arguably one of the 3-4 most historic programs in the country. He’s got nothing left to prove, nothing left to aim upwards for, only the what he builds and what he leaves: that is his legacy now.
Too bad Low didn’t see that…or Estes.

…that was the shortest Board of Trustees meeting in history-
“All who approve Coach Saban’s contract extension say aye”
“Aye”
“All opposed?”
(BLAM!)
“Meeting adjourned.”
