Rumors. How do you know he was even offered. Josh Pate had a commentary on this stuff today and mentioned just because someone is interviewed doesn't mean they were offered or were turned down. Briginging a guy in for an interview is just that an interview. Getting to understand the guys philosphy and understanding and it's alignment with yours. Only two guys know if he was offered and turned the job down. Some guys just interview for leverage with their current teams and the guy looking to hire needs to feel that out. He also mentioned Rees and said pretty much the same thing and went over his coaching resume as well how well his offenses have done year to year but pointed out who his QB's were during those windows. He also stuck o Rees being an ND graduate that turned down Kelly whe he went to LSU so he may be untouchable to begin with if Saban even decided he wanted the guy...he also mentioned Saban would like to pattern his offense after Kirby's at UGA ...5th best in the country with medriocre RB's and QB and wide outs but fundamentally strong that over powers the teams that play pin ball offenses..and have small quick defenses that just don't have the power to stop a strong offensive team
Grubb has coached with DeBoner (sticking with the UW nicks) at 4 different schools. Question is could Grubb get a decent HC position if he stayed as opposed to going to Bama. UW is probably going to have to come up with some additional cash. Grubb has his QB for another year. Who will be playing QB for Bama? No doubt he’s a 5 star.
BAMA has two returning 4 stars and two more coming in......no 5 stars but you'd think 4 fairly high rated guys he would find one to lead the team...Grubb is making $2M a year at UW after getting two raises at the end of the season. Good money sounds like to me...biggest potential issue I possibly see....is Grubb is a passing guy and it's rumored Saban wants to bring back the running game with a running QB who can pass it as well...
The UW OC turned Saban down. Surprising. Saban turns his attention to ND OC Rees.
Grub turned down Saban.
Kingsbury is not taking a college cord job. Besides, a bit pre-occupied at the moment.
I'm hearing KK to Bama. Saban would deserve that.

big hit to the dawgs if he leaves.
