Not really. Saban is not meeting with Patterson unless he is being offered. Maybe Saban verbally agreed to come to Austin tomorrow. That would indicate it is done.

so you are saying he will interview next week he just wanted to take the heat off?

Which NFL guy?

Chip's latest update is about 1/3rd Saban. Says chances still low of Texas pursuing Saban.

the silence is deafening

Hope its true. When does Fournette announce?

He will wait and like it.

Coach O made 650,000 this year at USC.

What USC players would be at the Army combine in San Antonio? Seems odd there would be college kids there.

Bring on Chris Simms

So Saban with Kiffin as OC and Orgeron as DC?

If Duke didn't choke away the game last night it would be their coach.

I noticed no mods came in to squash what he was saying about Saban. Chip posted but did not comment on Saban.

Chip's report is free. http://texas.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1592852

No mention of Harbaugh or Saban in Chip's latest update. Briles, Gruden, Strong, Franklin, Dantonio, Fisher, Muschamp, Schiano, and Mark Richt.

His update refers to Gruden. Something about a BMD reaching out to Gruden. And that a BMD faction wants Gruden.

Don't bid against yourself in the media. What else do you expect him to say?

Jan 6th not the 4th.

Saban is working for ESPN for the BCS Championship game http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1883908-nick-saban-reportedly-will-work-for-espn-during-bcs-national-championship If so then break the news the night before with flight tracking fun and news conference at noon on the 6th. Then he goes...

If we had a good shot at Saban I would expect some smoke screens to take the heat off him. Especially after websites like this claimed it was a "done deal" and he was "the next head coach at Texas". It's not like 5 or 10 years ago when chatter on message boards was just chatter. Now everyone...
