LWS over on FF saying since it's a criminal investigation the players should still be suspended for FL... If so, there should be no excuse for us to not pull out the win.

Honestly, if we need to fire Butch, just give Gillespie the job. He can obviously evaluate talent. He can recruit. He can inspire players, and he can coach.

Get him a good play caller and a stellar DC...

Right, since CBJ had nothing to do with evaluating and recruiting those players to UT and all. Not saying Gillespie isn't a great RB coach, but let's keep things in perspective.

MacIntire, Whittingham, Kelly, or Ryan. If not those 4, lets keep Butch and let him make staff changes at LB and DC if that is our problem. Butch works harder than anyone and with time he'll get it done, i believe. But he has to be careful this year. He can't let the wheels fall off or it'll be over.

Can't keep continuing to fire staff members every year and keep Butch. He is the problem

I love Butch Jones. He rallies our guys, recruits like crazy, and doesn't get us in trouble. The players love him. Oh yeah, and he WINS! He may be frustrating at times with his coaching and motivating strategies but he is a guy I would love to play for and I am glad he is our coach.

Preach, my brother!

The commentators kept talking about the knee to Wolf's thigh during that tackle. I kept seeing his ankle turn in the replay, but they never talked about that. In summation, commentators suck when it comes to injury reports

I fully believe that talking about farts would prove more productive with our time than what is being talked about right now with this asinine theoretical coaching search.

We could get someone much better now than in 2012/2013. The roster has been mostly rebuilt and the program is in much better shape.

We could easily get someone like Larry Fedora, DJ Durkin, Dana Holgerson, etc. But I wouldn't want those guys.

We'd probably call Dan Mullen and Bobby Petrino. Probably call Dantonio. Probably call Taggart.

But yes, we'd have to end up hiring a G5 guy like Scott Frost.

But I don't like talking about firing a coach when there is almost 0 reason to yet this season.

We will not hire another mid major. The committee formed with Phil Fulmer and some former players that AtlantaVol had said few months ago would prevent that from happening.

That almost looked forced to me. If you look at him before and after it just seemed so business like. I commented at the time that it didn't look genuine. Same with Dormady. Maybe I'm wrong but it seemed that way to me.

Wow. LWS is so connected, he has sources at UF, too.

I kid, sort of.

take it for what it's worth-- he seems to be pretty connected to the program, which means the staff may know something or feel pretty confident most of the suspended players at FL will stay suspended if we play this weekend.

Nick Saban is hurting this conference. Can not wait til he retires. That will be a day of jubilation.

I really respect what he's done, but he's taken so much excitement out of the game. Alabama is just on another level from basically anyone. That's a testament to amazing work, but it's also kinda dull.
