    If DeBoer stays at Washington, it's almost to the point where you hire Tommy Rees to a 4 year $16 million contract with a low buyout. Assuming he sucks, you fire him after a year or two, which provides the cover needed for a HC to want the Bama job. 

     

    I had this same thought when Lanning told them no.  Problem is the halo effect of Saban and current roster will be strongest over next two seasons,  If Rees Chuckle's it up,  they will be on their own 10 year walk in the sand.

    Whether he turned them down or his buyout made it impossible, Lanning played this pretty well 

    Somewhere on TexAgs:  See we are the same as Alabama.  It's not that we are a backwater, cult stuck in 1970s culture and norms,  It's that Lanning really loves his current gig.  AL new coach will be similar to Elko....

    He talked about taking $20 million from the 12th Man Foundation to pay Jimbo within 60 days like it was his nothing. Could it end up being that the lawyers said that it’s not that simple and he can’t meet payroll for the new staff?

    Slow playing the detailed contract language seems to be an A&M special, given last year's flurry of signings of Jimbo's staff right around or just after the season started.   Could bite them in the ass with Optimus Klein if others come calling and he realizes his health can't take the salt levels of an average Applebee's entrée.
