Quick Update on Coach Rod
The Birmingham News reports that Rich Rodriguez has agreed to a 6 year, $12 million deal with Bama. This report, however, stands alone right now.
ESPN.com reports an offer without acceptance (which does not constitute a contract, unless the law has changed since I took the bar exam), but some players are quoted saying Rodriguez told them he is staying.
As a side note, I attended the team announcement party for Shreveport's own Independence Bowl last night. Joe Kines was there on behalf of Alabama. One of my Bama friends asked him if he was going to Texas to fill their vacant defensive coordiantor position. Kines told him he wasn't going to Texas and would stay at Alabama if asked. Kines reportedly said he would stay around even if only "to cut the grass." If Coach Rod does come to Bama, he would be well advised to keep the Tide's defensive staff. They have not been the problem.
