I think it's his nature to bolt. Rumor was he was interested in the NY Giants job last year (and Texas before).

I think he might leave if he wins another title this year.

People say that but, is it? He left msu for what was probably a better opportunity, which considering he won a national championship there is that really arguable? Maybe you could say he would have done that here too, but obviously he didn't think so. He left there for the NFL because he wanted to take a shot there. Then he didn't succeed and he went back to college at the best opportunity available and has been there for a long time. Does that resume really add up to "it's in his nature to bolt?" I don't think so. if he had left Alabama after a couple years, sure. But this isn't exactly Larry brown we're talking about here.

I agree with this. Dude was at MSU for a decent number of years, left for what he considered a better opportunity, won a national championship at LSU, then naturally went to the NFL. Didn't work out and he's been at Alabama ever since then.
