re: Arnsparger--Forgotten era

Couple of things about arnsparger's last year, he and broadhead were on the outs bc of each other's ego. Also, Arnsparger was tired of the good ole boy system and the politics within the university. This is the main reason he left. When Saban and emeritt got here they put a stop to the good ole boy system and I think we have enjoyed the resultsfrom this. I was in the locker room after the Tulane game when he told the team he was leaving. My dad was on the staff then. This caught everyone by surprise. He did recommend archer but it was bc he was trying to help out one of his coaches. Also the team did want archer. Spurrier wasn't hired at Florida until 89. 2 years after Arnsparger had left. Archer's problem was that he wasn't ready and there were internal issues within his staff. And yes there were a lot of issues. The staff didn't respect archer and resented him. From a coaching stand point, Arnsparger was just as good as Saban, in my opinion, but he didn't enjoy recruiting. Half of his staff went on to coach in the pros.

Just came on wsfa news out of montgomery. Taylor is suing school board because is son was not allowed on the basketball team due to his hair. Coach Frank Tolbert says that he does not allow braids on his players. It's a rule that he has had over the years but Taylor does not want to follow. Told Taylor to get it cut. He did not, so family is suing.

He hasn't used one all year. This is a penalty in college. Why hasn't he been penalized?

Bill Oliver was def cord for stallings and a coach for the bear. was promised the ua job after stallings left but got screwed. went to auburn as bowden's dc his last couple of years and was named interim coach when bowden left. retired from coaching in 98 or 99 i think. was dc for 92 bama national championship. considered one of the best dc ever in the SEC.
1984 Arnsparger years. My dad was the Head trainer duting that time.
i'd take miles 1st. he was all state as a wrestler in high school.

PETE IS THE DLINE COACH FOR THE PHILLY EAGLES AND IS PLANNING ON RETIRING AT THE END OF THIS SEASON. MY DAD IS A CLOSE FRIEND OF HIS AND WORKED WITH HIM WHILE HE WAS AT TROY STATE IN THE 60'S AND LSU IN THE 80'S.
saban's teams never tackle during practice. they wrap up and let go. its called "thud". This is to prevent injuries.
coached together at colorado and dinardo was in miles' wedding.
since they are close friends, i wonder if dinardo will tell miles not to make the same mistake about not firing the def coordinator?
michael vick got va tech to the title game but lost to fsu as a freshman in 2000 sugar bowl
