If a school can give a head coach a lifetime contract for the wrong reasons, it is time for Alabama Football Head Coach, Nick Saban to have one for the right reasons. A valid argument can be made Saban deserves it because he is the greatest college football coach of all-time. That is reason enough to award the man with a lifetime deal.
There are other, more practical and strategic reasons for Alabama Athletic Director, Greg Byrne and Alabama President, Stuart Bell to make such a decision.
Kansas recently announced it is giving its basketball coach, Bill Self a lifetime contract.
