I know I will be flamed for posting on here and I am not here to burn you, but you have to give it time. I know you need a new coach and you will get a good one, but as a TIDE fan I know the frustration of just getting someone fast. It will set you back years. You do need someone young. Phil has been passed by and football is played at a much faster pace now....Florida looked like they were going in FF and the vols looked like slow motion out there. I hope you win out except for Oct 25th when the TIDE rolls into town....

picked a bad day to come by and say that as your first post...

I get your point though kinda of not ending up in your coach-after-coach-after-coach mentality based off of "we want to win now" and i feel a little respect on that part


still hope we rock the tide though :)

great point!! you guys were total LOSERS 2 years ago, and in 2 years, you're smokin' everyone so far.........yes, our program is on a big 8 year down-slide, like the stock market.......but there's still alot of good talent out there, we just need some great coaches to bring it out.....I was really sad to see Trooper Taylor go, he got 'em fired up last year!!!! we miss that excitment......

How far have we sunk when a Bama fan is actually on here giving condolences?

Better them than a Vandy fan like I have actually felt. It sucks when the doormat of the SEC has a reason to brag, and there's not a thing you can say to counter this year.

How long did Bama sit by and watch their program drivel away? Crap, they hired a new coach every other year. Zook lasted 3 years at Florida and was run out of town and they've been knocking on a national championship ever since. Bama or Florida could win it all this year.

If anyone wants to know the power that a coach has to turn a program around just look at what Saban has done in his second year. A number 1 recruiting class and off to 3-0 and absolutely killin people. Just like against Clemson they obliterated Arkansas today.

Like I said I did come on here to bash you. I live in Tennessee and may not be like other Alabama fans. We dislike Tennessee most of the time, but I have some really good friends that are UT fans and family members that are as well. I love Alabama football and will pull for them till I die, but I do not want Tennessee to be weak. If we or should I say when we beat you in Oct. I wanted UT to be undefeated just like everyone else. I makes look better. You need to hire a young coach or one that has a proven record like Saban. Tennessee has too good of a program to let Phil take it down so fast.

Tidelover, save it, your tide still may fall apart, seems to me you all where riding high at the beginning of last season before your loss to the likes of Lousiana Monroe much less letting Tubby take you for another finger.
Don't think we need your advice for whatever your reason so take that crap about how and why and all that crap somewhere else.

Yeah we are taking advice about finding a coach from a fan whose team has had 9 different HC's while we have had 2. He has had plenty of expierience but don't want any part of what he is offering.

Tidelover, I know you know how bad we feel, seeing as how you all have spent the better half of 12 years feeling the exact same pain. I lived in AL for all those years and I KNOW how y'all hate TN. It was nice of you to try and cheer us up though, cuz nobody feels the pain like someone who has been there for so long. Thanks for making us feel better... NOT.

I'm not sure why everyone on this thread is jumping on this poster. I guess pity is more insulting than pure vile to some on this board. Show some class.

Man, some of you guys are complete asses. Don't get me wrong it bothers me that the program has gotten to the point that even our rivals feel bad for us, but cut the guy a break.

No delusion here...

1. Bama fans have been on the bottom for many years and it feels good to see some hope on the horizon.

2. Bama is not "back." We were 4-0 last year at this time as well and we know how that ended. We are definitely better but we will have to see and go one game at a time.

3. We haven't played a real good team yet.

4. Bama fans are people too and I honestly was pulling for UT yesterday. The game was handed to the Gators on a silver platter.

5. EVERY team will go through this at some point and some longer than others. We were on a decade of BAD! If you think that your team will always be dominant then you are the divisional one.

6. Bear is still passed away. (don't want to be accused of living in the past)

7. We can treat each other with respect as humans.

8. I FEEL YOUR PAIN!!!!!!!!!!!

I do not need apologies or anythng from a bunch of sorry people like some of you. I was just trying to tell you that it can be corrected quickly but all the AD has to do is make the move. I have read on here for a long time cause I like college football. I read on all SEC sites just here is a program that I would put up next to ours as one of the best of all times and know what you are going through. Most of you all good people just like on our threads, but some of you need to quit kissing your sister and get a life. ROLL TIDE

Bro calm down. There are a bunch of good people here and don't get upset about a few who upset you. Right now is not a good time anyway to post here. I understand first hand the feeling and so do you. I haven't posted much out of respect. Also even though you get mad let's show respect even if you are not respected.

Roll Tide Rev, thanks for respecting our privacy to lick our wounds in peace w/o all the platitudes. And I must confess to you, Rev, that I was too sarcastic with the new guy, TIDELOVER, but it is like when you are in the hospital after an operation and a person you don't know very well comes in to try and cheer you up. First, you wonder why they are there, and secondly, they stay too long. You just want to be left alone. That's where we are right now, but thanks anyway.
