Any program who hires $aban should know that they should take what they can from him during his brief stay there, because he's going to bail at the first call of a larger salary. (Not that there's anything wrong with that, I suppose, as long as the university understands that going in.)

$aban has been stating for years that his dream was to coach in the NFL - if he ever gets another NFL opportunity (which is questionable, of course, based on his performance at Miami), he wouldn't hesitate to bail on 'Bama. Its just the way he operates - he's not the kind of guy who will stay long term anywhere and build a program.

(And yes, I know people who are personally acquainted with him.)

That was my opinion on the matter as well!
