re: It's time we had a serious discussion about Austin Allen

The sideline demeanor is mildly embarrassing, but if the team on the field was out there getting after it every play, I wouldn't care if he stood there with one hand down his pants, and picking his nose with the other.

I don't really think any amount of emotion is going to make a lot of difference during a game. I was tired of having an obvious prick on our sidelines by the time Petrino imploded, but if being an arse like Petrino or Saban is what it takes to motivate these guys properly, I'm ready for a sideline monster that has parents and the media calling him out for his brutality.

I think it's much more important to be that guy the other 6 days of the week than game day though.
