Overview
- Paul Finebaum told The Rich Eisen Show he doubts Nick Saban would take the job but believes LSU is the one school he would at least hear out.
- Finebaum framed a potential conversation as hinging on an extraordinary offer exceeding Saban’s former $10–11 million Alabama salary and noted Saban turns 74 this week.
- Nick Saban reiterated on The Pat McAfee Show that he wants to remain retired, joking that his agent should stay away from his wife if big numbers get floated.
- Interim coach Frank Wilson called the promotion a dream opportunity, described himself as a caretaker, and emphasized keeping the team focused on the present.
- Wilson reported no current verbal commits have decommitted, assigned Alex Atkins to call plays after Joe Sloan’s dismissal, and led LSU’s first full padded practice since Brian Kelly was fired.
