otterinbham 0 Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 They eke out a win against Houston, and they're frothing at the mouth. Some are even comparing Saban unfavorably to Shula. I put one very mild comment on one of their threads and it was deleted within 30 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longtrainn 2 Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Alabama is not a bad football team, but they're certainly not great at this point either. This is where I think most (rational) people believed they'd be right now, dropping 2 out of 3 against Arkansas, Georgia, and Florida State. I think people just got way too carried away after that comeback win against the Hogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One minute they're talking SECCG, the next minute they're talking about canning coaches. After we lost to MSU, I worried about the direction our team was taking for the season, but I had no reason to worry about the state of the program. But the Mullet Nation is already getting out the torches and the pitchforks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUman43 5 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I do think it's hilarious that they spent 4 mil per year to get a coach who isn't really doing any better than Shular! They're the laughing stock of the football world with their haughty attitudes and overblown egos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleDrill 178 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 http://www.aunation.net/forums/index.php?s...amp;hl=rockstar The TRUTH is, Alabama hired a NAME for the NAME. Period. It was a short-sighted, high-impact deal that was made for the IMMEDIATE "credibility" that Mal Moore felt like this would give your program. They don't give a rat's arse about 2 years from now. It has NOTHING to do with winning games. It has NOTHING to do with winning championships. It has EVERYTHING to do with the surface-deep impression that your program is still a great program because that program could sign a great coach. And it has EVERYTHING to do with beating Auburn. I'm sure Saban will win some games this year. But mark my words, if he does not beat Auburn this year or next year, he will be GONE the third year. That game is THE biggest game of the year for you guys. I don't care how much you guys deny it. If he loses to every other team and wins only one game...and that game is Auburn...then he has done what he was hired to do. Pretty sad when you think about it. That much money for a NAME in high hopes to beat Auburn. Bear Bryant was not a rockstar coach when he came to Alabama. He built his legacy over time. Right now, you guys are trying to hire and fire your way to a championship. Saban will be gone in 3 years. Remember this post. It is turning out to be more true than even I could imagine.

TitanTiger 20,511 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Boy the hits just keep on coming. We plaster Vandy. They hang on for dear life against a C-USA team, at home. And then Fran wins and staves off their fantasy talk of CTT to A&M. Hide the women and children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, in Tuscalosa, they have it the other way around. Bama apparently looked so bad to the fans and media, that the state media is already writing more articles on "Rumors of CTT going to ______."

tigernt'town 4 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 they were so high on major applewhite at the start of the season, i tried to tell them, same offensive scheme that was schooled by troy in last years bowl game. my prediction was almost there, except for interception in the end zone. 31-30 would have been so sweet.

runswithscissors 33 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 we are pretty much where i thought we would be at this point in the season, maybe a win better. i think alot of what disappoints, is the flashes of potential. when you play like world beaters in the 1st quarter pretty consistantly on both sides of the ball, and hang on before halftime, then come out flat.....thats frustrating as a fan. i think there is alot of problems with mentality. its hard to change mentality, especially if someone does not want to change their mentality. its as if we are on fire the first half and everyone says "ok we can let up this is in the bag." with the exception of a few guys, i think it is becoming more obvious that these guys were not recruited to play in the type of system that is being ran. more so on defense than offense. size-wise these guys were not recruited for a 3-4 defense and it is hard on them to physically perform the things they are being asked to do for 60 minutes. i am pleased with them thus far this season, and i am looking forward to the future of the defense after another year or two. as far as any fans that are in meltdown mode, they need to think back at what they might have predicted pre-season.....a 7-5 or 8-4 type record. and like i said before the season.....its going to take a few years. this is not going to be a pie in the sky season. it just doesn't happen that way when you really look at the situation.
