Re: Spikes to miss the whole game vs. Vandy

What a sacrifice by urban. Does he really think it matters at this point?

And let me just add.....UM invented the backstep.

And he only done it to avoid further criticism. What a true man and leader you are...

Too late Urban, you've already shown the CFB world your true colors.

I just saw it myself but if you can't come up with the right answer yourself should you get the credit for getting it right. UM is a little too late but atleast we now have the right answer.

At least he finally got it right, but he still has not condemned the actions...

Re: Spikes to miss the whole game vs. Vandy

Everyone is entitled to make an error...but this seems more like a controlled burn from a PR perspective instead of correcting an error because it is the right thing to do.

Without the media blitz and public ridicule would Urban change his mind? I guess we will never know but I certainly have an opinion.

An additional angle to this is the SEC comes off looking weak yet again. They back up UM only for UM to say he was wrong...where does that leave the SEC?
Thank goodness for quality athletes...the SEC sure isn't the best athletic conference in the country because of Slive or his fellow goons in downtown B'ham.

Who made this decision? We know it wasn't UM. It had to be the prez, AD, or commish,,, but which?

Urban side steps to the left, then right, then scoots out
