Bama has a history of nicknames for their players and coaches. I don't remember any of them suing.
"Bear" Bryant; "Snake" Stabler; "Broadway Joe" or "Joe Willie" Namath, "Deuce" Palmer, "Italian Stallion" Musso, "Mount Cody".
Older players - "Bully" Van de Graaff; "Football Freddie" Sington; "Wu" Winslett; Johnny "Hurri" Cain; "Dixie" Howell; "Tarzan" White; John “Hog” Hannah; "The Wizard of Oz," Newsome; Cornelius "Biscuit" Bennett.
And presently, Eddie "Circle Button" Lacy.
All this suing is going to take the fun out of football.
