There has been a giant development in the Tommy Rees saga that seemingly came out of right field today.  As you probably already know by now the Notre Dame offensive coordinator boarded Alabama’s private jet for a meeting with Nick Saban in Tuscaloosa this afternoon.

According to a report from Football Scoop, Rees has in fact been offered the offensive coordinator position at Alabama.

From the Football Scoop report:

Later Thursday afternoon, sources told FootballScoop that Alabama has already issued a preliminary job offer to Rees to become the Crimson Tide’s offensive coordinator.

Additional sources have told FootballScoop that the situation is not believed to be one about money; in fact, per sources, the initial Alabama offer to Rees was in the range of $2 million per year, on average.

It would certainly appear the ball is now in Tommy’s court.  Will he stay or will he roll out of South Bend?
