Bammers are pissed. I love it.

I know a big Bama fan and came up on his conversation this morning. He was legitimately upset that we "couldn't find a sitting head coach."

You can "lol" all you want but he's right. If the rest of the fanbase had the complacency of the people in the RF, Schiano would be our coach. It's easy to laugh at that portion of the fanbase with a snarky arrogance. It took an active uprising and social media to initiate that coup. VN, VQ, and other forums were crucial to that movement.

I'm not saying there aren't some delusional people in the Gruden threads. I'm just saying the ground swell created by that portion of the fanbase got important people involved --- including state lawmakers. If you don't think that's true, you're not paying attention.

I’m a regular in the RF, and I *****sed as much or more than any freedom fighters you’re touting and defended the embers afterwards. Get over yourself!

The Southern accent will draw people in....every press conference is the same, unless you are Herm Edwards. People will be fired up when he talks about smashmouth football and winning championships. Being from the South is going to be a bonus for him though.

That Herm Edwards press conference was a joke. It sounded like he didn't even know they were the Sun Devils lol

Calm down. Really. I was talking to BCarter.

For once, I moved around both the FF and RF during the coaching search. A lot of us choose to stay here in our own RF bubble (myself included). It was refreshing to see how the other half perceived the search/hire.

What I described in my previous post is real. I'm not defending any "freedom fighters" (sounds a little dramatic, no?). All I'm saying is that faction of the fanbase and the power of social media drove the bus of change. Many many people were ok to complain and moan --- but sit back and let it happen.
