    Nope, it snowed and then did what it is supposed to do in central Alabama ... melted and went away the next day :)

    I live on the Alabaster/Calera line and we had snow and ice in shady areas of our back yard for days. 

  2. Saw something interesting about him. He has never built a D1 program. Much like Harsin, he took over a program built by Peterson. Peterson had Washington in the top 16 in recruiting however DeBoer had them in the 30s. He basically brought in a top notch QB from his previous school and injected him in with Peterson’s recruits. He has never cracked a top 25 recruiting class.

    Saban may have messed up when he said he was gonna still be hanging around. What coach would wanna sign up for that

    What I was reading elsewhere, that was cited as a likely reason they would go after a former assistant like Locksley.

    We’ll never know, but highly doubt it. He just became the public’s defacto choice because he was the public’s defacto choice for A&M.

    Lanning just said in an interview that he was home with his son watching a movie when his son’s phone went off reporting he was in Alabama.

    Thank goodness. I was around her this summer and was struggling with that possibility. 

    I have a coworker that goes to church with them and she makes it sound like they are really nice people off the field. Nick sounds a bit robotic from what she has said. I kinda wonder if he might have Aspergers or something similar.

  6. On3 just ran a story on behind the scenes. As a back story, Payton and Jackson have stayed in touch with each other on a regular basis since high school. Jackson told Payton earlier this week that he wanted a change and was going to enter the portal as a WR. Payton immediately took the info to Freeze and Marcus Davis, who proceeded to get his high school WR film and was convinced to make him an offer. The whole deal took place in roughly one day.

    That's a good comparison. The back end of it also feels like the 2010 Mississippi State game to me. Where we were fortunate to win at all and can be used as a blueprint of what NOT to do on offense. Big difference being we don't have Cam Newton on this team. 

    It was an ugly win and one we will move past, but a win nonetheless.

    This game reminded me a lot of the Miss St 2010 game as well. I feel it’s mostly just growing pains of the new team and new coaches.

  8. Saw an article on Facebook that it looks like we are going to offer a QB from Old Dominion that has 2 seasons left. Described as someone to mentor Walker White. It said Freeze was familiar with him because he carved up his Liberty defense last season and took them to the wire.

    I don’t think people in general, and Bama fans in particular, give Kirby Smart the credit he is due for Bama’s dominance in the Nick Saban era. But all of your points are valid and spot on. 

    I’ve been suspecting this for a while now.

    I hear some rumor mill stuff the other day that originated from students about him. As many of you know his kids are students at AU. Supposedly one of their friends said when we had the last search we were poised to hire Freeze. Maybe the recommendation from the search committee? Not sure. Whatever the case Green sandbagged the hiring and locked it up on background checks to the point that Freeze pulled out and Green got his man, Harsin. If that’s true I’d be surprised this time if it’s not Freeze.
