It’s about time in our offseason schedule to bring up awesome/funny/memorable play calls. TV, radio, whatever

Todd Ellis: LINK

“Ace takes off! To the 40! 45! 50! Fifty...five! 40!

Speaking of the Kick Six though, Verne’s “answered prayer” call was awesome.

Try a long arse field goal and nobody on the highest paid coaching staff thought to put some speed on the field in case it fell short.

That seems common sense now but honestly 5 years ago that was pretty uncommon. You didn't really see someone return a FG often back then. It's routine now but I don't really blame saban for poor coaching.

To be honest that's the best coaching call Gus has ever made in his life. Sometimes you just gotta tip your cap.

Odell had done it earlier that year against UAB.

I didn't say it was the first time ever, just saying it wasn't really commonplace. In other words it's on the minds of coaches during fg tries a lot more these days than then

God dammit Larry was like a regional Keith Jackson. You just hear that voice and it sounds like Autumn in the South.

Lindsay Scott was his best call ever.....had everything, from broke chair, to partying to destruction of property, and even doubt....

For some reason, I'm wanting to say that wasn't Gus' move...could be wrong though, wouldn't be the first time this hour.

I agree, personally I think Verne absolutely sucked balls at making a great call during great moments.

What Todd Ellis lacks in skill, he makes up for with enthusiasm.
