How stupid............not saying he isnt a decent coach but I see an older coach just getting that one big payday........If I was in Alabamas position I sure would have hired someone that will be coaching five years down the road. I wouldnt be suprised if Price retires in another 3 years, then where does that leave the Tide.

Hopefully, Bama will now suck and UK can beat up on them a little. However, I'm not too sure about this new coach for UK either as he's also a dinosaur.

I think you just answered your own question,,he will exit about the time Alabama gets bowl-eligible again. This will give him financial security, and he only needs to put in three years for it.
The could not get a top-notch coach because of all the uncertainty of the up-coming penalties.

He was the only one who would say yes cause of the pending NCAA sanctions against the very corrupt Alabama program....this Memphis scandal isnt done yet.When you pay $200,000 for a player..it usually doesnt sit well with the NCAA...I agree he is waay too old but they needed a band-aid and they got one!!!!!!!

dont you think that is LAST TIME any lame duck gets to caoch a bowl, hehe ... I live in seattle and like the cougs and think Price is a great guy, but I would never have let him coach that game, said it all along, and by the way his team played, it seemed corrrect, even tho I like the imbecile i am tried a small ML parlay with them :)
