16 wins with a series to go in the modern SEC is nothing to sneeze at. Pretty good season.


Agreed. It wasn't too long ago we would celebrate double digit SEC wins.
The university is doing just fine with donors lately. We just had two schools named after donors giving significant money. I will have to politely disagree with you on the roles of our administrators coddling these people.

For those who plan ahead


Fantastic home schedule. I'm trying to get my daughter to a meet in Ttown. We went to one in Huntsville last year and she had a great time even though the atmosphere sucked

ales of watching with the wife:

The hag is doing the Ring style crawl across the floor and I’m gasping and cringing. My wife looks up from her phone


Does everyone's wife do this? Why can't they just put the damn phone down for 30 minutes to an hour? Why is it so hard for them to disconnect?

Alabama lost its billionaire who probably likes sports ball considering his daddy. Law school dean and Stu Bell did a piss poor job of managing Culverhouse, Jr.


No Culverhouse Jr. thought he could run the law school curriculum and hiring just because he donated money. That's not how it works and that is not how it SHOULD work. I'm proud of UA for telling him to booger off.

I'm just assuming it will Hill 's job to lose to start the season.


I appreciate Hill, so this is not a diss on him. However, watching him run is like how I run in my dreams, tough sledding.

I'm surprised someone who was so active in the public eye seemed to disappear completely after he lost control of his TV companies.


I remember watching Braves games as a teenager (25 years ago) and he was always there and then he wasn't. I just assumed then that he had died

Hand to God, I thought he died 20 years ago

Feel bad for the 18-25 generation right now. They’re pumped full of gambling ads everywhere and it’s an easy ride to get on at that age.


I saw it up close a couple years ago. Went to the Waste Management open in Scottsdale and went to the famous 16th hole and was surrounded by younger guys 21-25 range and they were all betting on the most ridiculous things. And they weren't betting like $5 here or there. A few of them were betting hundreds for something like which caddie will make it to the green first.

We have 2 top 10 HS commits coming in next year, hopefully they can help turn it around..


Knowing our luck with top players, they will play 1.5 seasons and will turn pro.
so am I reading this right, in that under this Beiako would have been eligible since his 5 years wasn't up?
Yeah looks like it was a good time for Potter to retire. We haven't been the same in quite some time. Honestly we may need the men's coach to think about it as well. We are losing ground to AU every year
I’m 39, married with 2 kids and I still get nervous hitting on my wife in fear of rejection. So what does that tell you about my dating life before her? Dating sites and technology certainly made it easier. If it wasn’t for that I would still be single

Um excuse me? Maybe listen to your own advice because when all this shite was going down that is all we heard from every MSM source. Not a peep from the same sources

It's all manufactured. Haven't heard a peep about health insurance costs since November

A-Day has become the gameday experience for hood and trash


Which is a shame because this is a great event for families especially if you have young ones that don’t appreciate the regular season games. Yeah that crowd was definitely rough looking all around
Yup I just got back from the game. A lot of youth there today and was afraid something like that was going to happen. As we were leaving a fight was breaking out. Looked like a teen takeover that I’ve seen videos of lately

The difference in him and Bediako?


One school belongs to a conference where their commissioner supports the schools. The other belongs to a conference where the commissioner is a try hard douche that hates the flagship university that the conference was founded on

If it's something he truly enjoys and it's not dangerous, then just partake with him. You don't have to love it but it makes a huge difference to just be present with him
