George Frickin' Teague has to be up there somewhere.

Jelks admitted he had been bought and paid for by Aubie boosters and has been forgiven.

Absolutely. He exposed that Auburn boosters paid him to make up payments he received. He could have kept his mouth shut and never said anything

Auburn should have had to serve the same penalties we suffered because of their lying cheating boosters.

Pat Trammel.....He put the Tide on his back and brought them back to respectability.

Most talented: Joe Namath.....Some of y'all should have seen him.

Leroy Jordan.....I could go on and on.

Namath when he still had good knees was awesome and would have been dominant today.

I was in the Navy when the Bear had just returned......Most of us Southern boys--Tennessee natives excepted--pulled for Bama when they began beating those Yankee schools pretty regularly.

Trammel is one of my five or six favorites of all time, any team.....He personified "team."

Top of his class in undergrad, and then went on to get a MD.


He died far, far too young.

Jake Holland definitely got some. It was good for a laugh.
