Bama's offer to Saban

[dr. fager]

I'm happy for Bama, I think it's a great hire, but on the other hand I sure don't like how the guy handeled it.


"All along, he reiterated that he planned to finish his coaching career at West Virginia "if they'll have me." Apparently, he didn't believe they would have him at the price of the facilities and BCS-maintaining pace that he desired."


On the other front, now WVU is on the prowl. Funny, here in central PA the PSU faithful is very concerned about losing Bradley, one because he's a heck of a defensive coordinator, secondly...he's their primary recruiter in Western PA.

"As for potential replacements, Mountaineers administrators likely will consider LSU offensive coordinator Jimbo Fisher of Clarksburg, W.Va., and Salem University; Florida associate head coach/safeties John "Doc" Holliday, a Hurricane, W.Va., native and from 1979-99 a Mountaineers assistant after three letter-winning seasons at linebacker; New Orleans Saints assistant George "Duke" Henshaw, a 1967-69 Mountaineers lineman; and possibly Penn State defensive coordinator Tom Bradley and East Carolina coach Skip Holtz."
