I dunno, Mike was out on the Strip buying coeds shots in the weeks before his date with Destiny (pun intended).

I'm guessing his time was short regardless

Less we forget Dubose went from the feel good story winning a conference title to out of a job 12 months later.



I think some of us still saw that coming even right after the conference championship.

How did LSU fans really believe that the shrimp-boat captain all of a sudden just became a great head coach? Was it not obvious his assistants were responsible for this?

Oh come on - nobody saw the 2000 team as a 3-8 disaster and the program collapsing.

That's revisionist history.

The 21-0 loss to Southern Miss definitely killed all hopes for me that Dubose was the guy.

Dubose wasn’t well liked then 1999 happened


DuBose was literally one game away from getting fired. After the incident with his secretary in the offseason, there were calls for his resignation. After Alabama lost to Louisiana Tech in the third game of the season, the athletic director (Bob Bockrath) resigned and many people figured that DuBose would either follow suit or be fired by the man who replaced Bockrath (Mal Moore). The scuttlebutt was that had Alabama lost to Florida in the Swamp DuBose would have been fired the following day. Against all odds, DuBose beat Florida on the road and ended up going on a run that saw us win the SEC Championship and reach the Orange Bowl.

It was evident very quickly in 2000 that all pre-@ Florida win fears were correct and this entire thing was a dumpster fire.

It's so similar to the LSU situation it's crazy.

Career DL coach that used fanbase emotions to get the job

Pulls a great season out of arse in year three

Multiple scandals.

Player/assistant revolt

Dumpster fire on tire fire season to end all good will

Damn. I can’t believe I didn’t see this comparison before.

What was it DuBose used to always say - it's in God's hands?

Does this mean it gets to end with LSU receiving program crippling sanctions?

It's kind of funny because the same people that are complaining because players have quit are quitting themselves.
