re: Have you ever stopped to think about how LONG it's now been since the "Dark Times" era?

Bill Curry was proof any idiot can win 10 games at Bama. Just stay out of the way and don’t screw it up. That was a maddening tenure. I will never forget being manhandled by Memphis. That was Curry: he could play LSU and Tennessee and win and turn around the next week and lose to Memphis. Or Ole Miss. And not complete a single pass the entire game. 0-11 passing, 0 passing yards. The only pass completed that Homecoming Day in 1987 was the brick thrown complete through Curry’s office window. Bad times, my friends.
