Odds starting to say otherwise.  Real odds, with money involved.  Somebody knows something.  If there ever was a time, it’s now.

I'll be shocked if he goes back to coaching at this point. Especially at the college level. Why would a Super Bowl winning coach with a well paying cushy TV gig want to take a job  where he'll have to work his tail off kissing the asses of HS kids? Because the biggest part of college football is recruiting. It isn't the X's and O's, it's the Jimmy's and the Joe's.

Well he didn’t get into coaching because he hated it.  

[Jangler]

okay

If they even did a half assed job giving him the salary and assistants he’d demand, luring recruits for him would be candy from a baby easy.

He has said multiple weeks during the MNF broadcast how much he misses coaching. "Man, I miss coaching!" or something like that.

Probably what Bill Callahan, Charlie Weis, etc. thought too.

Jon Gruden is supposed to come back and be a coach every year since he retired.

etc.=Nick Saban?

None of the above have been Super Bowl WINNING HEAD COACHES or have the charisma/like-ability of Gruden either, to say the least.

Right and this would seem to be the same as always except real money is changing fast as REAL odds have DRASTICALLY changed.

I put it in the title.  It’s not only a huge football story but him returning to the Bucs could prevent the UT move.

No. Nick Saban was a career college guy who dabbled in the NFL, not vice versa. Big difference.
