If Pruitt wins 7 or more games this year he’s second on Bama’s list to succeed Saban.
On one hand I hope Saban stays long enough for Pruitt to get us back up to 9-11 wins but on the other hand I’d almost trade Pruitt for Saban retiring at the end of the year. Hard choice to be honest
I did, lol.
@BruinVol and I see eye to eye on this, but it’s not an argument worth having at this stage in the game. I’m fully supportive of Pruitt, but he’ll have to shock me by turning down that other job if it is offered at some point
10 mil huh? Interesting take.For the record I’m not saying we won’t spend lots and lots of $ to keep Pruitt. I am
Saying we won’t spend enough to keep him from going to Bama if that opportunity comes along. I mean what is Saban making now? 3 times what we are paying?
No way we would pay him over 10mil which is what it would take imo
What he’s worth. You think they just throw that check at the next guy?
Once again...they’d go 10 mil for someone other than Dabo?No I don’t think the next guy will make as much UNLESS they get into a bidding for their guy. Obviously if that happened with us finding 3 times as much to pay our guy would be much harder than them paying the same as they already are paying
Bull Durham stinks tooI can get your not liking The Natural — to each his own, I'm actually not as big on it as a lot of people are. But the best is Major League and it isn't even close?? Dude, dude, duuuuude!
I liked Major League, it was a very funny movie. It was meant to be a light and silly comedy and it achieved that, which is fine. But almost every other baseball movie that's been named on here is a better film. And that's not even close.
Edit: imo, ML isn't even the best comedy about baseball. Bull Durham is way better.
Urban is the only one I can think of. Pruitt is loved there. He’s one of theirs. He’d get a lot of support is Dabo says no
He may have a lot of support....but there is one man there who can single handed blackball JP...and he has said in past he would due to some unfortunate circumstances that occured while JP was at Bama. This is not to be taken lightly and from multiple folks i have spoken with unless major amends are made JP stands no chance at that job in the future.Urban is the only one I can think of. Pruitt is loved there. He’s one of theirs. He’d get a lot of support is Dabo says no
Do you think they pay anyone other than maybe Dabo what saban is making? Pruitt would have to win like 3 titles in the next 3 or 4 years to get an offer like that. And if he does that, I think we would match or exceed the offer. Bama ain't throwing 10 mil at a coach that hasn't won multiple titles. This is also just a stupid hypothetical based on creating something to worry about. Maybe it happens eventually but there is no indication it's happening anytime soon. Let it go toby. We all just wanna get excited for the season to start.What’s Saban make now?
