More For Nick

Big-time college football programs get extreme at times. Many of them have low graduation rates. Alumnae funnel money inappropriately to players and teams.

Alabama coach Nick Saban struggled in the NFL, but hit a gold mine in his current job. His salary of $7 million is one of the highest. The Alabama boosters recently paid off the balance of his $3.1 million home that he purchased with his wife after becoming coach in 2007.

During that time, Saban has earned over $35 million. That didn't stop the group from sweetening the pot for him. Meanwhile, he continues to send players to the NFL, wins Bowl games and has a low graduation rate.
