So what happened to that Al Borges worshiping wildebeest, Christina Turner? I lived in Columbus and I was a frequent reader of the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer, and it seemed she couldn’t go a sentence without mentioning, “Offensive Coordinator Al Borges, Offensive Coordinator Al Borges, Offensive Coordinator Al Borges.” Did she leave when he left?

Tommy Tuberville is paving the way to his farewell tour. He knows that he doesnt have sanctions to soften up Bama anymore. He knows that he wont beat Bama at recruiting as long as Saban is there. And even with the best of effort he knows that it cant be done. So he is framing his exit, but being the great guy he is, he is going to make sure that the cupboard is bare on talent before he goes, That way it makes him look like a better coach than whoever his poor predecesor will be.
If Tennessee has a bad year this year, Tommy will come-a-calling on ol’ rockytop.
The sad reality for Tommy T is that no other school in the SEC would have him… not even Vanderbilt.

Uncertainty is the only explanation. Hog fans may or may not be completely sold on Bobby Petrino just yet. His record at Louisville was astonishing, but the key word is: LOUISVILLE. I think Petrino is a better coach than Tuberville and I’m thankful he never replaced Tuberville or else Alabama would be in deep trouble. But Tubervilles pre-Alabama sanctions record is what he once was and is what he will be once again.

what i find particularly piquant about the whole ordeal, is not mr. ears’ classless and teenage-ish taunts, but the razorback fans and their feelings toward houston nutt. honestly, if i were in their shoes, i’d hate my university more for wanting to retain him an extra year. seriously, the guy left you and he was replaced by a guy that only lost 9 games at louisville. i’d be thankful and i would also rejoice if he walked out on my team, even if he headed the opposition’s direction. who really would’ve cared?

It’s classy to visit the troops overseas, and it’s classy to hold up seven fingers at the troops who aren’t unfortunate enough to be a fan of your team, said the backwoods Barnie to the other.

Tuberville once admitted the reason behind his “Iron Bowl” success, but seeing how, after six consecutive victories, he’s too caught up in it to realize ‘Bama saved his job. That same logic will be used against him when ‘Bama is also the reason he is forced to retire.
