Heads up: Million dollar babies
By Wade Kwon
The Crimson nation need fret no more, at least, until spring practice. Nick Saban, formerly of LSU and most recently of the Miami Dolphins, agreed to be Alabama’s next scapegoat football coach, to the tune of $30 million over eight years. Saban is expected to let diehard fans down almost immediately.
Meanwhile, the big men of radio may have landed the biggest radio deal in state history. Morning team Rick and Bubba have jumped from Citadel to Cox (in Birmingham, from WYSF 94.5 FM to WZZK 104.7 FM) for possibly $10 million plus over five years. Wouldn’t it have been cheaper just to ship them to Tuscaloosa, do the show and coach the team?
