Saban cost about $2 million more a year, so you are looking at paying a whole lot more and getting Gruden, when he has stated numerous times he is not interested in coaching in college, is a pipe dream. In reality, it was a great day for U of L. It sent a message to the so-called big boys that the Cards are playing for keeps.
As for getting him at UK, you guys are an also ran in the world of college football until you stop stealing money from the SEC and upgrade the facilities (not just talking about the stadium here, all your football facilities are garbage) you will never land anything but an over -the-hill coach, or a hot shot coordinator trying to move along quickly. Tom Jurich has decided to try and not be that type of program, and as someone who spends a lot of money on U of L athletics, I applaud him.
