Saban headed to Alabama

ESPN.com - NFL - Saban rolls with the Tide, takes Alabama job (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2718488)

So much for his denials that he wasn't leaving Miami.

Wow, that was a short stint. I dunno if I'd wanna coach in Alabama

I wonder who Miami's replacement will be.....

We get to play the Dolphins next year.

Can't say I mind facing a first year coach instead of Saban in his 3rd.

Maybe like Childress? :(

Dude phoned it in! No personal meetings with staff, players, etc. Good call Nick! There's MY leader

Once the talk started, I was pretty sure he was going back. I am betting he never really had any deep desire to leave the college ranks but just got an offer he couldn't refuse.

Peter King was convinced that this guy was the next "great thing in coaching" - wonder what his take is now?

I know. What an f-ing sellout.

If I was a Tide fan I think I'd be sort of pissed that they just spent all that money to rent him for a few seasons. He might be capable of another quick turnaround, but he'll probably be gone by '09 when a bigger, better deal comes along.

He's kind of like one of those whores you'd find an any LSU or Bama parties, except they don't cost you millions.
