Considering how much Alabama is raking in since hiring Saban, do you really think they're in a position to gritch about his salary?
Ain't the free market wonderful?
That said, I think there are a lot of problems still out there. While we're seeing the slowing of tuition hikes and maybe more scholarship money, when you're talking about expensive private schools, most of the scholarships offered don't even bring the tuition up to being on par with public schools.
And don't even get me started on the for-profit education industry preying on our soldiers and sailors and attracting students for cheap crapola degrees at 4-5 times the price of what they'd pay at a brick and mortar institution.
