@64Tide Not sure if you're referring to Dubose or Pruitt, but with either case. I know most of the time the bulk of the salary is through private donation. I'm sure if I wasn't so lazy, we could look online and find what Saban's actual state salary is. It is public knowledge. I am going off memory and it can be fuzzy (kind of like I was close, but not dead correct on the last 10 years and average salary thing). When Saban first got to Bama and was making the crazy amount (media's words) of 5 million per year, I think his actual "state salary" was like 200-250k (ball park) that the university paid. The rest of the 5 mil came from the likes of Drummond, Bill Battle, Paul Jr, etc.
