re: 1996 Alabama coaching search

I'm a Bama fan and an SEC fan. I don't buy into all the hate that gets spewed here. Dubose turned out to be an awful hire. Recruiting way down which in turn lead to recruiting violations. Francione bolted before more sanctions would be levied. No one will ever know how Price would have done because when he got to Bama he decided to use his Alabama credit card at the Tit bar. Shula IMO did a decent job at Bama under the circumstances he inherited. He was a scape coach to get them thru probation.
I like to see all SEC teams win ( unless playing Bama of course).
I really like Coach O and the inthusiasm he brings, but LSU Administration sold the fan base short with hiring him as the Head coach
