That was not the company line when it went down my man. Many coaches stay when sanctions hand down. Will Saban? You got 2 players admitting to taking money from agents and its behind the obituaries.

Johnny has a beer and its Wall Street Journal.

You are wrong about this - Bama was very very very shell shocked he left. There was no "oh I figured he would leave - no biggie"

You are prob too young.

Roger. Your obsession over me even effects your ability to defend A&M here. Where you graduated from right

Your posting habits are a much greater detriment to my school's image than what other posters think about Dennis Franchione.

I was a sophomore at Alabama wen it happened. He walked out on Alabama. He so much as lied to players on he plane ride from Honolulu.

But we should have known he was looking for an out. His name was attached to Kansas the year before. The sanctions were tougher than anticipated and he didn't think he could make it with a short deck.

No one thought he would leave because of his whole "hold the rope" routine. He was trying to convince all the players to stay instead of transferring without penalty (and did a damn good job of it). I wasn't too young. I was about 14. I remember exactly how it all happened.

Yeah...and most sanctions are actually a slap on the wrist. What Alabama got was second only to the death penalty in severity. Only one university has had equally as bad as Alabama had it in 2002 and that was USC in 2010. What did Pete Carroll do? He bolted for the NFL after 9 seasons with the Trojans.
