I know we have all joked about the STAB and had a good laugh. However, on a serious note, this is an old name, that actually did pretty well in NFL with a decent record in College. I don't think he really wants to be out of coaching but he has been out for awhile, what about Steve Mariucci. His record at SF was 56-39, he didn't do to good in Detroit, but seriously who did? Just a thought.

Re: Cowherd likes Saban to Florida

I agree, I like listening to/watching Cowherd b/c he's usually entertaining. I don't always agree with him, but he presents information/ opinions in a funny/clever way a good bit of the time and it's more entertaining than Mike & Mike or 1st Take in the morning.
I also mostly like to listen to Cowherd. I think he's pretty smart and he backs up most of his opinions with good reasoning. However, he did very unreasonably hammer CNS when he made the move to Bama. That was crap. Otherwise, though he's often right on. What he really knows about the next Florida hire, though, I'm not so confident in.

Re: Cowherd likes Saban to Florida

Cowherd doesn't know. He doesn't have any contacts throught he school. Hell, I have better contacts throught eh school with the Bull Gators I know, than he does.

Colin,talk more NFL and MLB and give the college football a rest till the bowls start.
Colin has connections; they don't have to be UF connections. In fact, it's most likely not, because if they were, and he made claims to know something, he would lose that connection. Maybe it's an agent, though, or a booster somewhere. And, with Florida having likely expected this for a year, I have no doubt that there have been "leaks" regarding who Florida is after.
That doesn't mean he knows, though. But, it's not like he's just some accountant in Shreveport who says he knows. He works for the single largest sports news agency in the world, and is one of their most well-known employees with a national presence. He sometimes says stuff just because it is interesting. But, he sometimes legitimately knows stuff. This may be a mix of both. He might have been cryptic because he's been told it's one of three guys, and all three could fit what he described... Who knows.

Re: Cowherd likes Saban to Florida

Cowherd's not all bad. He continually sticks up for the SEC in general as the best conference. He is also not on the Boise bandwagon which means he has some common sense. He's from the northwest, too.

BTW, does anyone have any idea what Saban's buyout at Alabama would be? It's gotta be huge.

Saban doesn't have a buyout.

Re: Cowherd likes Saban to Florida

I'm having a hard time thinking of a single reason Saban would want to go to Florida. I don't see money being a factor- he has and makes plenty. Facilities are at best the same there, probably not as good. Program prestige is no better. Proximity to talent base is better but I don't think he misses out here to a degree that would prompt the move. Not sure how much he cares but I don't think he want's more of the betrayal/hatred thing. Am I missing anything and did Cowherd even say Saban to Florida?

then you don't listen to the show. He DOES have connections, and he generally doesn't speak on things he hasn't researched and/or been tipped off to.

"Stab" could be a reference to a perceived "stab in the back" ie Muschamp - M Brown- Coach in waiting.

That's not a bad guess...the big-boy coach reference I would assume is because UT is considered one of the major BCS schools/major conference.

Re: Cowherd likes Saban to Florida

Well that just means if Cowherd takes Corso's place in the future that Paul Finebaum would be a good candidate to take his (Cowherd's) place at ESPN. Both love ratings and are desperate to do what they can to stir the pot.

Re: Cowherd likes Saban to Florida

Saban, Tuberville, And Brown
as in, Muschamp's former bosses.
This is kind of fun, and was certainly good marketing for Cowherd, because I've seen this thing on several sites.

Re: Cowherd likes Saban to Florida

even if he was wrong how would we ever know. As shown in this thread he can make up anything he wants to go with STAB to "prove" he was right and he will NEVER admit that he's wrong.
