Tommy Battle, Mayor of Huntsville, has also talked about running. He's been great for Huntsville.

Battle will be the next Governor. Walt might be good but he has the wrong letter next to his name in this state. Plus its a money game so Bill Battle will come in handy. Get ready for some emails if you have made donations to Bama Athletics

Wasn't "vote for FOB lose your job" James and Auburn grad? He wasn't so great as governor himself.

Don't blame him. The Governor's office seems to be the last stop before prison in Alabama.

You're probably right. Walt's been a good mayor, and for Tuscaloosa's sake, I don't want him to run.

I don't think this is something Alabamans should be proud of, but I don't live there. Y'all can do whatever you want. I just think that refusing to vote for a guy ONLY because he's an Auburn man is a shining example of taking college sports, and sports in general, way way too far. Good luck Bama, I hope you guys find a governor who will do great things for your state. We're all Americans and your success is our success!

Actually the last two governors in Alabama that have been worth a shite were Auburn grads.

Kay Ivey, the current governor. Although she wasn't elected and has only been in office a couple of weeks now.

The last one before that, Fob James elected over 20 years ago, was an All-American RB for Auburn under Shug Jordan in the mid-50s.

The 3 governors inbetween James and Ivey were all Bama grads and it's gone terribly.

-Don Seigleman - just released from Federal Prison two months ago after serving 5 years
-Bob Riley - not terrible, but just kind of there. A lame duck.
-Robert Bentley - time as governor ended in arrest, resigning just before he could be impeached, and will likely do prison time



ETA:
But yes, any association with Auburn football these days would be a huge hurdle to clear to get elected to any statewide office in Alabama. There absolutely would be hordes of Bama redneck that would vote for anybody else other than Tuberville or somebody associated with Auburn football.

I think Barkley could get it done, but a lot of Alabama fans actually like him because basketball is forgiveable. And he would also carry the black vote.

So you're including someone that has been in office for 2 weeks under the good Governors?

Did nothing wrong. Was a pretty good Governor nothing special but didn't frick up.


The reason Alabama has more people elected is because we have the best business school and law school in the state. Most people that go into politics are either from the Business world, lawyers, or doctors and the majority of those people go to Alabama in this state.

That's why the majority of Senators from Alabama went to UA.

4 out of the 7 current House members went to UA.
