Memo for Alabama Fans

nashvillevolunteer · 12-07-2006, 08:30 AM

With the coming of your new coach (if it is Rodriguez), I wanted to let you in on a couple of things keep an eye on.

Rodriguez is not known for discipline, i.e. Pacman Jones, Chris Henry, on and on and on and on. He is similar to Petrino, take the players who were kicked out of other programs, pull some strings and make sure they do not get kicked out of their new school.

Know that you will be officially known as the new "Thug U" once he is hired. Miami holds nothing on this guy.

I am sure Alabama does not believe this, but just be prepared.

All have a good day.

Are you trying to convince them to hire or not hire Rodriguez?

I would exit your glass house as soon as possible.

Why leave a successfill WV team, I bet he will do worse at Bamma.

I think he will do good, and I hear the opposite. I hear he is a coach with some discipline. Maybe he'll have to take his belt off once or twice.

We will never be known as thug U. Come on now.

I don't get the point of this post. What are you trying to convey? Why would you post this on a Tennessee Forum? Who are you trying to get too? To me, it seems your kind of worried because this guy seems like a good coach, please correct me if i am wrong.

I have never heard or thought of West Virginia being "Thug U," others please correct me if I am wrong.

He's probably an Aubarn Fan.

Anyway, I hope that if we get RR that he is a good coach like FF. (props to UT out of respect)

Prob a Virginia Tech fan.

I have never heard anything about WVU lacking discipline. Now their fans get a little out of control with the furniture burning but a coach can't control everything.

June Jones at UHawaii is known for taking in problem players and straightening them out. UHawaii isn't known as Thug U. RR doesn't have that stigma at WV. Some coaches can handle it, others obviously can't.

There is no program or coach without inicidents. When you have 50 to 60 plus kids stuff is going to happen.

Like someone else mentioned, Pacman Jones and Chris Henry are first class citizens...

I watched a WVU game earlier in the year, against Maryland I think, and WVU must've had 3 or 4 late hit personal fouls called on them.

Bennett4UT · 12-07-2006, 07:27 PM

Every program has their first class citizens..

I can say that I didn't see any late hits but I will take your word for it

So what were Henry and Pacman convicted of while student-athletes at WVU?

**tidwell** · 12-07-2006, 07:42 PM

I didn't keep up with them then.

I doubt however that they become what they are overnight upon entering the NFL.
