    And he is certainly no president!!

    It will be Dabo. The son comes home. He won't give a rats about the ACC.

    Good points, but if Dabo wants to remain competitive then he will need to come around. If he's willing to adjust (I couldn't) then I think there's a real good shot of him ending up in Tuscaloosa.

    Oh he actually is?! I just learned that right now. This moment. I was helping my daughter all day and didn’t check sports news yet.

    You are relieved of your penance.

    That's what they do at that fine institute of higher learning. Protest over the football coaching hire.

    I think they had this job filled before Saban announced his retirement.

    Dabo at Bama is the disaster we deserve.

    Perhaps because neither of them are coming to Gainesville.

    Don’t underestimate how much winning means to them, I can see them shelling out big bucks if that’s what it takes to get their guy.

    Not the ones I work with and talk to every day. They know Kiffin can win ballgames and that’s what matters to them.

    He’s about as knowledgeable as the rest of the “insiders”.

    We are talking about the women attending Alabama, correct? How would things be less scary if they were present?

    Really? I don’t think most Bama fans would be good with Lane.
