AU! 0 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 BG you still forget the inherent difference between what CTT did and what CN$ did, CTT left Ole Miss after taking a program from probation to a yearly SEC contender and the lied said he wouldn't leave ole miss, and then did. CN$ took a program that was over the salary cap and in the gutter and left it below the cap and in the gutter after promising to return it to prominence. He then said that he wouldn't leave Miami, he then said that he would not coach at alabama, and then took the job at alabama. One instance of coachspeak is somewhat lessened when you compare it to what CTT did for that program. Had CN$ brought miami back to prominence and perhaps into the playoffs, his actions as of late wouldn't be so bad, but he left a job in the dust when he realized its bigger than he is and not only lied about leaving, but lied about where he was going. Also, when CN$ left he announced it through what? Email? please, his first press conference about it was in t-town far away from all the people that he knew would be pissed at him. I don't agree with what CTT did, but it was nothing compared to the actions of the bahr reincarnate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quietfan 233 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 What the heck, I'll take another swing at the dead horse: I do think CTT was wrong to make his comment at Ole Miss. But that was eight years ago. He's been stable ever since, behind only Fulmer in the SEC in terms of current seniority at one school, and has established a reputation for ethical behavior and Christian discipleship. He did a good job at both Ole Miss and Auburn and gave them their money's worth. He only said "They'll have to carry me out of here in a pine box" once, and it falls more under the heading of generalized "coachspeak" to me because it's a hyperbolized metaphor and does not directly address any other particular school. CNS meanwhile has a reputation for leaving for greener pastures. His chasing of other school's commitments while saying "if you shop, we'll shop" to his own seems hypocritical and raises questions about his ethics in my mind. He did not, in my opinion, give Miami what they paid for. He said not once, but multiple times that he wasn't interested in the Bama job. And "I will not be the coach at Alabama" is direct, names a specific school, and cannot be interpreted in any way as a generalized statement, or just "coachspeak". CTT was wrong, but CNS is "wronger"--at least that's my feeling about it, anyway. I now relinquish the bat to the next person who wants to take a swing at the horse.

I never saw a press conference of CTT and the '"pine box" statement but we saw CNS's denial and even getting irritated when asked about it. I guess, at the time, he didn't realize the depth of bama's pockets or how effortlessly he wold rise to "God" status just by taking their money.

I think if I remember correctly, the pine box statement was in the newspaper as a quote from CTT. If you remember correctly, it was in ONE newspaper -- the Rebel honking rag, the Clarion Ledger -- and as it has been relayed to me the comment was completely misconstrued. It actually was something like "if I comment on that, they'll have to carry me out of here in a pine box." Big, big, big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AURainman 6 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Finebaum likes to play the audio clip of Tuberville saying, "No, I was not interviewing in Auburn last night. I hate it when rumors like this come up." None of that was a bald-faced as Nicky-pooh's "I will not be the Alabama coach," and his follow-up the next few days where he ATTACKED the media for bringing it up again.

Yeah, it is sort of funny how the Bama fans have used the "pine box" statement ad nauseum to make themselves feel better about the over priced liar they hired as a coach.
