Prothro is the one Bama player I hate never saw the pros. But that was due to injury, not unfulfilled talent.

Prothro is one of my all-time favorite players to wear a non-Auburn jersey. I don't see how every Bama fan in the world doesn't hate Mike Shula's guts over the Prothro injury. Bama had already completely annihilated Florida by that point and Prothro had no business still being in that game.

I will never forget that play. My wife and I were at Red Lobster eating dinner. I had to get up and run to the bathroom and puke when that play happened.
