I’m glad Kiffin wasn’t able to poach him, but I’m not over the moon about this dumb arse situation. Bad feeling about how this went down and would love to be proven wrong, but did we get shook down by a kid we were already paying a shite ton of money?

Hard to believe you would let your wife back in the house after she wanted to bang her personal trainer. What a cuck.

He never stirs up trouble over here and honestly if we wanted a positive only Bama forum people can just stay at Tidefans or whatever site.

Has nothing to do with it. How many BAMA posters are allowed on the boog board?

Don’t know I’ve never asked to join their board. Maybe they’d let posters join if they promised not to stir up trouble

We have a whole bunch of actual Bama fans that are plenty negative. We don't need a Barner for that

Yeah just because he was persuaded to not enter portal doesn’t change my opinion on what I said yesterday. This version of CfB in its current format from portal with NIL to playoff format is just bad for the game and ultimately I think will be bad for the players as well.

Case by case basis, and an established barner troll adds what to this forum exactly?

I confess I did not intentionally post here.

I was digging for Mbakwe news before I got distracted for a few minutes... I really thought I was replying on the rant.

FTR: I went to Bama from 07-11 and probably attended 50+ basketball games and all the football games allowed and enjoyed them all! Being an avid sports fan I worked in the Bryant Museum, working for the late Clem Gryska, Ken Gaddy, and Olivia Arnold and enjoyed that as well!

I requested here a long time ago to ask about Tuscaloosa post tornado because I was preparing to go back to Tuscaloosa for a game. Needless to say I barely recognized parts of the city and felt a disconnect so I no longer felt the need to talk about it.


Cheers mate

The reality is college football has really changed and we need to get on board with this as well.


The school certainly needs to be on board with that if they want to maintain success in football.

Me personally, I read everything you said and it just makes my interest level continuously decline. Bought and paid for divas running things is why the NFL sucks and why college ball was better.

Skimming through this thread, so far you have the best attitude about all this shite and the best post. There's a whole lotta bullshite, fricking whining going on here and your post reminds us all there's lots of ways to have fun with all this, and eat shite Kiffin is one of them.

Yeah, hopefully this is over, but I don’t think they’re going to quit just yet given how close they got.

Wtf are you happy about? He just sent the message that if you're good enough the staff can be held hostage. Hell I remember him getting beat on a deep ball and fumbling a punt return. Thats all. Oh wait i think he ran one back as well.

You mean the way Nick Saban shook down Alabama when he cock teased Texas? You know, like how Jimmy Sexton had Terry Saban go to Austin and pretend to be in the market for a house.

You mean getting shook down like that, or shook down in some different way? Because this is professional football we're talking about here and there's no such thing as a "shakedown". It's all a negotiation.

Welcome to the players having all the power era. Thank the intransigence of university administrators for this situation.

This is the proper response. I like Lane for the most part. But he is bitter as frick he didn't get the call to replace Saban and he's got the equally bitter Pete Golding as his girl Friday. They are deliberately targeting Bama players and tampering out of spite. When Saban talked about people camped out in T-town trying to poach our roster when he retired he was talking about Lane. He's the bitter ex-girlfriend furious he didn't get the ring.

Well professionals in sports have contracts. And Saban maybhave shook down Bama to get a raise but had he taken the job Bama would have gotten a buyout from Texas. This is not professional in th least. All of professional sports players and teams are protected under a contract. If these players can get paid this much money then you have to be willing to let them take the criticism from fans that come with being a paid professional athlete. You can’t treat them like amateur children while paying them like professional athletes.
