Not sure if anyone has seen this series. It's hosted by our hero Pawl and they count down a bunch of different things in SEC history such as "traditions", "moments", "running backs" and so on and so on. It's extremely Alabama and Auburncentric and ignores a tremendous amount of important SEC history. The most glaring omission was on the coaches list. Steve Spurrier was listed and his tenure at both Florida and South Carolina were listed and discussed. When they got to Nick Saban (#1 over the bear!) however, the graphic only listed "Alabama (2007-present)" and no mention at all was made of his 5 years in Baton Rouge

I was kind of hoping he would evolve with his SECNetwork stint, but maybe not.

Why do you give a shite? Haven't you said before that you don't even look back on his LSU years favorably because you hate him so much?


Like you've said before you don't want his name on anything on campus

I don't, but it's funny as hell that some gump would do that, like somehow we're all going to forget

I think he is just the host. I don't think he put all the lists together too. Maybe he did though, who knows.

I guess we'll see when network starts this summer and there is more content for him to talk about.

Was this on his radio show? If so, remember what day? I can go back and find it. I'm very curious as to how Bryant wasn't at top of list.

No it was on TV. I found it on U-Verse on demand. I think it originally aired on the CBS Sports Network.

Saban won all of his titles in championship games and did it at two different schools.

Finebaum did not put the top 10 lists together. He says so at the end of each episode and suggests a few changes he can think of, including oversights or erroneous additions from hsi point of view.

Why does it matter so much to you what Paul Finebaum thinks?

or maybe he's just trying to trick the viewer into thinking he had nothing to do with it

who said he wrote the lists? It's pretty obvious he had nothing to do with it and was just the host as has already been established...

If it's the same list he did back in September then no, this guy is full of shite. Finebaum hosted a similar-sounding show and Saban was #2 behind Bear Bryant.
