It would make more sense if he exerted his influence on who played whom in the mid-'70s, I would think


Larry Munson said it in his radio show a long time ago.
He also said Bear was a huge factor on which teams went

It's always possible when talking about a good ol' boy, and the Bear was the goodest ol' boy around, so I won't dispute it or anything. Just found it odd that he would have that much influence so early in his Bama career. Granted, he had UK doing really well earlier, but that was a pretty short stint.
