📡 Watch Dabo Swinney explain ‘Alabama buyout’ in contract extension - AL.com

[Sgt. Lincoln Osiris]

Do we want to try and make him the first TEN MILLION dollar coach in college football to eventually try and lure him away?

Remember all the "RRREEEEEEEEEEEEE" when we made Saban the first 4 million dollar coach?

Eh, I don't think so.


Yikes.

 

[OldPlayer]

He just received a massive contract extension with an Alabama buyout clause/penalty.

Clemson, coach Dabo Swinney agree to massive 10-year, $93 million contract extension

Lololol, @OldPlayer we both posted at what appears to be the exact same time

 

[XXL TideFan]

Pruitt will get the first call.

 

[doemasters]

Saban might coach 10 more years

 

[Elderfalsedemigod]

Freaking hilarious

Says to me that Clemson is terrified of him getting an offer from UA. I would be embarrassed to let folks know that I wrote a contract with an enhancement showing that much inferiority complex

Never thought he would. Not that he wouldnt want to...the timing was never right..
Timing is everything...in life!...D.abo will be mid late 50s when nick steps down...
Dabo is going to have an incredible run......like it or not...its going to be incredible....
@doemasters might be right....mid 70s ...and will leave the cuboard stocked for 4 more.....
Hopefully...when nick is replaced...bama BOD wont be as stupid as we were when BEAR was being replaced....while Perk wasnt a bad choice..his committment to CF wasnt there......and that is of incredible importance....

I don't either.

i think when Coach Saban retires, they should actually let him pick. or at least let him have a say in the matter. or at the VERY least give them a top 3 of who he'd want to follow him.

I have always liked Dabo and wanted him to be our next coach.....until last night. When he did the "wet Willie" finger in the ear of the Dlineman on camera he lost all credibility with me. What a low class move!

 

[Tidestalker]

Well he deserves it. And yes, I'd still want him as the next coach.... If you think $ would be the big issue at Alabama, you'd second guess that after a .500 season.

It was an inside thing between them since he gave Dabo one when they won the Natty, and he said he was gonna get him back. I still think he is a goober though.

@XXL TideFan , If Coach J Pruitt does a good job at vileville, I hope he follows CNS if for no other reason than to piss the viles off even more.
I hate the u of tennessee.

....and the choir said, "Amen!"

Worry about the next coach when Saban announces retirement. Anything before that is pointless and silly.

 

[#80]

According to D. Sheridan on F'baum today CNS will coach into his 80's health willing.

Seems they were convinced there was/is a real possibility that he would leave for bama. If not why bother with the extra buy out if he left for bama.
