    The Past, Present and Future of Alabama Football

    I wouldn't trade the past, present (including this season) or future of Alabama football with any other program in the country. I am fairly certain I have been around Alabama football a lot longer than most on these boards but it never ceases to amaze me how many people blindly accept the...

    Rare vintage video footage - Alabama celebrating the 1925 Rose Bowl win

    The clip is from a video called "Roses of Crimson" done a few years ago. I think it is still available to purchase at the Bryant Museum. The video covers the trip out to Pasedena, highlights from the Rose Bowl game itself, the train trip home, and the parade down University Blvd to the Quad...

    Poll: Most memorable win over Georgia

    Without a doubt it was the 2008 game in Athens. Here is why: earlier in the year former player Victor Ellis had died. In a few short months Victor had gone from a perfectly healthy young man full of life just 28 years old to an individual destroyed by cancer. But right up until the end Victor...

    Trouble In West Georgia?

    IF there has been embezzlement by upper management in the ticket office, the question is where did the money go. Was it embezzled for the use of dishonest individuals within the department, or was it transferred into a slush fund for improper benefits to athletes? The latter seems more likely...

    Tyren Jones Suspended for Conduct Not to the Standard of the Program

    I guess this is one of the rare occasions that I agree with sir Charles. He said it well....and he has also done a superb job of amplifying the real Charles Barkley.

    Tyren Jones Suspended for Conduct Not to the Standard of the Program

    I wouldn't say it is "easy come, easy go". There is nothing easy about working for the opportunity for even a brief career in thr NFL. I think it is more ignorance in handling the potential financial rewards that come with it... It has been my observation that money doesn't change people....or...

    New UA tags

    The tags may be similar but the total sales are not even close. Take a look at our sales versus the barn's and post the numbers. All of our money goes to student scholarships -one more reason to buy the tag, show your pride, and support scholarships.

    Link: Oregon senator upset Ducks' 2015 class has no in-state signees

    I haven't looked at their roster to see where they are getting their recruits but Oregon has California to recruit. I would be willing to bet Oregon's percentage of black athletes in-state is so low that have to go out of state for the better athletes. When Joe Morrison was HC at the Univ of NM...

    New UA tags

    Every new University tag change is met with mixed reviews but every time there is a change tag sales increase with the new tag. BamaMoon, your wife's concerns might be valid. I took a look at my personal tag which has a block "A" followed by two numbers which are all centered in the middle of...

    Former FB Kyle Bennett speaks about Fran and Shula on local radio show.

    I certainly agree that Shula was/is a good person but there is no doubt he was in a tough spot as a head coach for which he hadn't been well prepared. I had some good friends on his staff and it was a tough situation for all.

    Marcus Lutrell Speech to Players before game (video was removed by UA Athletics)

    Re: SIAP. Marcus Lutrell Speech to Players before game I had the privilege of meeting Lutrell and hearing him speak Friday night. I recommend reading his book. I don't know anything about the UA copyright claim from the athletic department but I suspect it involved the use of the movie clips...

    Paul Bryant Jr. lobbying Robert Bentley to shut down UAB football?

    Actually, Paul Jr. is NOT the President of the U of A Systems BOT. The chair is Karen Brooks. Paul Jr. is not even on the athletic committee but is on the advisory committee to Karen Brooks and he serves on the BOT. Chancellor Bob Witt who answers to the BOT wants to see the U of A System run...

    The Future of College Football

    I misunderstood. You were saying a conference of 16 teams would have four divisions consisting of four teams each that would play each other every year....which would would be 3 games. For fun I will play along. Let's call the 4 divisions N,S,E,W. Everybody plays the other 3 teams in their...
