Yeah.... we have been saving THE REAL PLAYBOOK since 2008.
Yeah, after 12 years as a HC he will finally figure it outSo after we get curb stomped tomorrow and realize we haven’t beaten a team since 2008 do we finally see some recruiting changes or nah?
We've turned into realist. Atleast we don't sound like Tennessee or FSU fans. I hate to keep beating the same drum but if the better qb was playing, the predictions would be different. We've seen this movie a hundred times over the last 10 years. Hard to be too optimistic.
Hard to imagine a win when the HC already waived the white flag.
My post wasn't debating either of these points. I don't think we win. I was never even planning on being there and have sold my tickets. I also get that any hope for resounding optimism was squashed the moment EJ was propped up over AR as the primary QB. And the whole white flag comment was infuriating. Terrible look. But I still don't see the issue with Zippererererer selling a shirt about the game. To me, that's about as tame as it gets. I mean, we want them to show up, right? We want them going into the game on a mission to win, right? Disagree with Mullen's recruiting or not(I don't), these are still the players we have. I'm good with supporting them and hoping for the best.
Can you imagine if we won? I'm trying to think about how we would all react.
Now it's like the #MeToo movement, everybody's coming out of the woodwork with stories about being #DeezNutzed by Saban.
I don't like this. I don't need any information that makes me hate Saban less. What's next, are we going to find out he's good for a, "that's what she said," from time to time?
you don't disagree with the level of talent Mullen is bringing in?
As far as rooting for this team, I will always root for them and won't pick against them. I hope we win, I hope we blow them out like J blows those sailors. If that's the case we will see Kitna's kid in the third quarter.
I know how I'd react. I'd be asking most of you how you like your crow.
Saban is to college football what Belichick is to the NFL, imo. Even with my Dolphins roots, and as an Eagle having faced him in the Super Bowl twice since the Cowboys last won a Division round playoff game, I have a hard time not respecting the heck out of what BB has done. It's similar with Saban. I don't like either of them per se. But they're real and you get what you see with both, whether it's popular or not. So as much as I would love to see us unseat him as the dominant force in the SEC again, personally, I find him much more likeable than someone like Bowden whose entire shtick was, I felt, completely disingenuous.
If nothing else, we'll always have 2nd and 26.
I would save that kind of comment until when he wins an actual Conference Championship. Because a lot of schit coaches have won one game they weren't supposed to win, and a few have one Conferences they shouldn't have. But winning the conference would a real accomplishment. We you telling people to eat some crow when Zook beat three top 10 teams in a row in 2003? Did that make him a good coach?
