Garbage coach. Always good to throw your players under the bus

Could they ever find another coach that would better define what Alabama is?

No, he's a keeper!

They lose because their coach looks like Dumbo and no one respects him.

Sounds like he needs to add a few more G League Drop outs

I think Coach Mike White did this a few times at UF instead of blaming himself.

A lot of coaches want to say it but at least he does. It happens all the time.

It's like a player fumbling the ball in football.

Technically you can call that coaching. But it ain't.

I'd wager 1k that Philon is shaving points and making bank in Gumpville.

That’s a Brian Kelly move.

That's perfect. I'm pretty sure the OP is an infamous LSU alter.

Much like with coaching, get the $$$ and proceed to regress until fired … NIL killed college athletics

Oats is obviously a good coach based on his overall record at Bama but some seasons your team simply isn't very good aka the players are not as good as what you've had in the past.

I hate Nate Oats and Alabama basketball, but how did you get the headline from the above quote?

It wasn’t that many years ago people regularly forgot that Alabama even had a basketball team.

It has been fun watching them become the villain.
