So how long before the natives start getting restless? Don't ever remember the barn sucking so bad this late in the process.

Chicken, I too came here in 2007 to gloat over Saban coming to Bama after years of mediocrity. I soon became addicted to the no holes barred exchanges between posters and found it hard to leave. I am a paying member on other sites but find I spend more time reading here than any other site.I don't post often but wanted to applaud you for what you have created. Great job! :cheers:

Repeal to override multiyear scholarship rule fails
LINK /

quote:
A repeal effort to overturn multiyear scholarships like the ones Auburn offered the 2012 recruiting class failed by a mere two votes in the NCAA vote Friday.

Opponents of the rule — Auburn and Florida are the only two SEC schools to offer multiyear deals — needed to get 207 of 330 votes, or 62.5 percent, to overturn the rule and force schools to go back to offering one-year renewable scholarships for the next cycle.

“I am pleased that student-athletes will continue to benefit from the ability of institutions to offer athletics aid for more than one year,” NCAA President Mark Emmert said, “but it’s clear that there are significant portions of the membership with legitimate concerns. As we continue to examine implementation of the rule, we want to work with the membership to address those concerns.”

The rule was passed in the fall, but enough schools raised formal objections that a possible repeal vote was needed. Objecting schools had argued that the tool could be a recruiting advantage for schools prepared to offer the security of a multiyear scholarship. In addition to Auburn and Florida, most of the schools in the Big Ten — including Wisconsin, Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Nebraska and several others — began offering multiyear scholarships this season.

The less desirable programs have to sweeten the pot to get recruits.Even then the results were not very impressive. It will end up biting you boogs in the arse when your 4 year schollys cop an attitude and refuse to go all out in the weight room or on the field and you can't do a damn thing about it without fear of a law suit.This move will guarantee your mediocrity for years to come. :doublebird:

In that case let me apologize. Momma taught me years ago to respect a "lady".

The big Elephant in the room
LSU didn't want to play Alabama again.

It wasn't fair that they should have had to, and many talking heads and college fans I know said as much repeatedly... Not many people liked the rematch.

I know I know, its all over now.

I just think that's the real underlying issue of such a lopsided game.

Alabama wanted to play LSU badly, and LSU would have much preferred to play Alabama next year in BR.

Alabama didn't recieve any real consequences from losing at home to a division rival that went undefeated.

LSU coaches and players could never admit these feelings in the public eye(as if they had a choice anyways), but if I am an LSU player, why would I want to play Alabama a 2nd time for all the marbles?

LSU played in the SEC championship game (an extra game), While Alabama sat at home fueling their fire.

Alabama won fairly, but the game should have never been played...

When I am old, that's my story

If you want to be the best, you want to play the best. Bama was the best.
