I understood why Shula was fired, but I wouldn't have been upset if he had been given another year. I always felt like he knowingly stepped in a pile of shite and did his best to shovel it out.

The next guy worked out pretty good, so I'm glad he was fired now.

A few years ago I thought Dabo might be a good hire when Saban eventually retires. Now? Not so much.

I wanted Gus as the HC when Chizik was here. Not a huge amount of regret there. Although it was rumored we were getting Kirby right before Gus got the nod.

I liked Muschamp. Still kinda do but don’t want him as HC anymore.

I rode hard for Napier on our last hire. Jury still out on that one.

Other than that I don’t really remember any candidates where I was saying “Throw anything at him to get him”


Biggest thing to fess up to is laughing at Alabama for whiffing on Rich Rod.

Clemson is 5-0 and In The top 5

Neither Kirby nor Dabo will leave what they built for that fading program that can’t even hire a capable OC anymore

You talk a lot of shite for being a fan of a team that struggled to put more than 20 on the board against Missouri.

We had no problem putting up over 30 on Bama last time we played

Yet with a heisman winner your garbage OC couldn’t even put up 20

And he's watched Alabama play in the national championship game from his couch the past 2 years.

I think you have more alts than Alabama has losses over the past 10 years.

Yikes.

For me, Rich Rod. Double Yikes.

Everybody talking shite about Dabo is retarded. He's going to be the next BAMA coach. Just get used to it. You still have time to process the information if you start now. Unless you still think Venables was the reason Clemson was winning, then you're irreparably stupid.

There has been plenty of opportunities for this as a Vols fan. I’ll just name the largest name that always came up. Jon Gruden

A lot of MSU fans were united in wanting Napier both after Mullen left and again when Moorehead was fired.
