I imagine it’s because of what he did at Pitt State in the 1980s?

Yeah, speaking for the Bama fanbase as a whole I can say that we're really broken up about the way it all worked out in the end. What a shame.

Tuberville beat the Gumps six times in a row.


That ain’t exactly easy to do.

It’s hard to imagine someone making so many grammatical mistakes in one take inadvertently. You have to be playing us with this post.

It's not, but if you told me right now, "If you agree to let Auburn win the next six years running, then after that you'll get a repeat of the Saban years," I'd take that ten out of ten times.

No, he shouldn't be on the ballot.

But boy, did he enjoy his Little Debbie Snacks on the sideline.

The only real positive to his career is his TCU stint, and while that stint was good, it only lasted for 3 years

And it was only as good as it was because of LaDanian Tomlinson.

'Ole It's Rolling Baby may not have had the best taste in the world but, at least it was a woman. I think it was, anyway.





What is known though is that, at the time, she was the 4th highest earner out of a stable of 8 that Arety's Angels strip club in Pensacola provided to its clientele.

Bama owes A&M for taking that fricking loser.


That's true, and Bama fans have always been thankful for that.

OTOH, A&M owes Bama a great deal of gratitude for taking Bear Bryant off their hands.

Correct it was far from “presidential”, so he does not deserve to be in the HoF

[embed]Had rosters with only 12 blue chippers, couldn’t recruit, refused to run a passing offense, we only ran the option. This was the years everyone was running Air Raids. The talent rich horn and Sooner had teams with only 12 3 stars.

We literally ran the option every year until his final game with horn, where he decides to pass the ball, win the game, and quit. There was a Spring game McGee passed the ball to T Franks for a 30 yard gain, and the stadium erupted after seeing a forward pass.

His OLs were so bad, Sherman had to fix the lines of scrimmage. We would have been closer to Vandy in talent than a Tennessee. Teams like Kansas State, Mizzou, or Oklahoma State could talent whoop us. He didn't value speed. He rather have a WR bench 400 than run a 4.5.

He only hired friends. Fielded some of the worst defenses in school history. Ruined Reggie McNeal and Stephen McGee, didn’t use them right.

And he sucked everywhere he went after. LaDainian Tomlinson should get all the credit if he gets in.[/embed]

Thats allot of words to say Franchione is still the escape goat and now somehow LaDainian Tomlinson has to carry the blame too which seems like a pretty heavy load for a running back if you ask me.

Wingnut lived off of BAMA being on probation and still never beat us by more than 10 pts.

We were starting a few walk-ons at one point.
