Saban was really pissed about the play calling in the LSU game by BOB and not very happy with Golding either. Asked in a press conference, Saban simply said, "I have spoken to both and expressed my views. I don't see any reason to share those views in public." I think that's the right approach.

My understanding is that Key was not a "Get along to go along" kind of sidekick to Collins. Apparently, he and Collins disagreed loudly and Key even threatened to quit. I don't know who Batt will select. But stability is not a bad thing. If the fans are energized, the team playing well, and...

Tech's biggest problem is not coaching, it's money and facilities. Make a big bet on new staff, let money and facilities stall, and ... we remain stuck in a rut. Frank Neville said that. Cabrera said that. They have to figure out a revenue model. That's the priority. If Tech could experience...

Fairhope now. My mother is from Jackson and my brothers hunting camp is near Whatley. We’re well known in that area.

I have family there. My brother in law grew up there. I'm from further south. My sister lived in the same neighborhood of Winston Groome (Forrest Gump) and Fannie Flagg.

Once again, we have a failure to communicate. I do not have any interaction with the College of Liberal Arts or anyone in it. I do not speak for anything THEY do. As for me, I personally have dealt with the highest levels of athletic advising. I have never seen or heard of ANY interference by...

Keep beating me over the head if it makes you happy. I’ve never experienced or heard of one intervention by the athletics dept. In fact, I’m about to fail 3 football starters and the message from athletic advising was, “Serves them right.” So I have a totally different first hand experience vs...

Even a million is a rounding error. Auburn can kill the degree. We have lots of degrees that have very low grad rates. Lesbian Studies? Take students, even athletes, out of degree programs and you can quickly defund an entire college. Tech should probably kill the management degree. Since...

That’s a drop in the bucket. Theres 5,000 in faculty and admin. I’d be surprised if he had 50 “supporters”. But so what? It wasn’t that long ago Tech had professors proposing to change the lyrics in our fight songs. She had “broad support” too. Does that make her right?

Where is S Alabama?

His rep is kryptonite. Not well-liked and a bit of a disgruntled employee. He’s his own worst enemy. I think he got offices in a basement somewhere. No one will touch him. The economics dept is small. Broad support is an oxymoron. Not sure about the faculty Senate. He’s was presenting one...

FWIW, the economics dept has been an unhappy problem child for years. The business school kicked it out and it’s been wandering on campus looking for a home. Stern has pretty much alienated everyone and everyone wishes he and the dept would just go away. $645K? Adios.

Auburn's new AD, John Cohen, recently spoke and said the 3 most important things they are looking for are culture fit, X's and O's, and recruiting. Apparently, they are using a search firm to handle logistics, but Cohen said they will use internal resources to determine who they want. Kiffin...

It's a cake of their own making. And that's the problem. They thought they were buying a national championship when they hired him and he's turned out to be complete dud.

Jimbo's big problem, other than his ego, is his offense and the lack of a coordinator. He was a top dog 15 years ago but like many coaches, the game has evolved and they have not. I think the easier path for the Aggies is to tell him to upgrade his staff and hire an OC and get out of the way...

Dodd’s theory of the game wasn’t much different than Neyland. What I respect about Tennessee today is that it’s part of their ethos, regardless of the coach. Tech reels, like a drunk driver, from one theory of the game to another. How is that helpful?

Go to the Price library at Tech. Dodd had plenty of maxims himself. You can read them yourself.

I’d prefer Bob Neyland. He’s dead. And Gus isn’t coming to Tech either.

One has nothing to do with the other. Everything flows through Jimmy Sexton.

Channeling Pat Dye, I'm all for the guy who can answer this interview question, "Coach, how long will it take you to beat Georgia?" with an equally pithy, "About 60 minutes."
