As a supporter and lover of all things Alabama, I think it's a tacky move. Eli is the voice of Alabama football! Shame on all of you and the horse you rode in on for being happy about this announcement. Let me just say that if you're fortunate to live long enough, you will get old, too. I hope you don't lose your job because of it.

So he’s supposed to just stay in place because he is old?
The only reason he got to stay as long as he did was because he is old.

Very, very few people in sports get to call their own shot out simply because very few know when it's time to call it quits. For every Saban that retires before the bottom falls out there are a dozen or more Bobby Bowdens out there that simply won't hang it up. It's been clear for a while Eli was going to be the latter so I do not blame the University of simply deciding not to renew his contract.

Personally, I liked him and thought he did a good job overall. Kind of sad how some on here are dogging him. I wish him well.

notguilty-I agree with you. With Eli full time, I always tuned in to Bama radio with the TV sound off. Last year with Stewart in for away games, I found I could not stand to listen to anyone other than Eli so I tuned out and listened to the TV call. I'll try Bama radio again this year but doubt I'll stick with it. I just love Eli, warts and all.
