Yeah no, I am not mad at the guy, I just figure that if someone would point out the obvious to him then he could improve on it until he gets recruiting in there to suit his taste.

Dang dude, you sound like what we call negatigers on tiger rant. I guess you a negagump huh? LOeffenL. Priceless!



I am fairly certain that there is a difference in my attitude and that of a negatiger. Firstly I'm honestly not trying to be negative nor am I trying to down on the guy. I think he's done a good job as a first year OC at Alabama. I have just noticed that something is not clicking when it needs to on offense when they get into the red zone. I figured if pointing out these flaws, whether they're obvious or not, was necessary.

I saw the general negatiger meltdown last week when Alabama pulled out the squeeker.


I attended UA during the Shula years (04/05) and the first three during Saban (06-09). I know what loosing feels like first hand, but I also know how winning feels when you're backs are against the wall and everyone is rooting for you to lose. That is why I've always enjoyed being an Alabama fan.

It's just sad that the fools like Updike and the teabagger make the rest us look bad.

Well, I lived down the street from the Nussmeiers, so I can go look at their house number and maybe they have a forwarding address still on file?

Don't act like a duche. Leave the coaches alone.

Lord I was hoping this was a bad joke but something tells me you're serious.

So you're telling me that if you saw a problem that you could fix you'd say nothing and let the wheel keep turning?

What do you do when the wheel finally breaks off?

Anyways.. thanks to gatorprincess815 I found what I wanted.. didn't want to skim through 200+ pages though.

Hey, maybe he will get through and have an actual impact vs. opining about it on some random message board?

Please go buy another Wal-Mart jersey and lock yourself away in your double wide and don't come out until spring practice.

Okay, so I went over and talked to the Nussmeiers. They wanted you to know that they appreciate the feedback but they want be more balanced, so they wouldn't have two losses like LSU.

First unless they know who you are then they aren't going to listen to you because they probably get 100s of emails/letters from every football "expert' out there.

Second, I doubt you found something that they haven't seen or won't see with 100's of hours of watching film.

If you are going to do don't announce it on SEC Rant. It makes you look unstable. Call the Athletic Dept.

No flame intended but getting behind 20-0 will cause you to change your offensive play calls. Bama does't play from behind.

Why don't you tape it to a brick and just throw it through his window?
