Sarcasm is anger's ugly cousin

I'm going to need you to retard your anger.

Larry Coker says hold up on the statue.  But he appreciates your stance.

Funny....

But you know those situations are polar opposites.

Tubs left under different reasons than Davis. At The U, the staff stayed intact. It was no rebuilding effort. They were loaded to the gills. At Auburn there was a regime change and rebuilding of culture in the fb program.  It's pretty apparent Gene worked his ass off. 70 scholarship players last year to a nc in one year. Give credit where its due. The fact is these players did something under Chiz that is special. I would more liken Coker to Tater Tot.

Geez, no slippy-flippy's or angry masterbating?

That's a big stretch even for you.

Didn't say he didn't do a good job.  Said it plenty of times.  It was a special season and one where everything bounced the right way. 

There are a lot of guys who found the magic one time.   McCartney, Fulmer, Stallings, Bobby Ross, Don James, Spurrier (yep, just one), Lavell Edwards, Schnellenberger, Dooley (yep, just one), Jimmy Johnson, Dan Devine, Danny Ford...

Some of those guys are legends.  Others just meh.

But if you're going to give credit, stop with the bullshit "cupboards was bare" noise that Prowler lives by.  Chizik made it happen.  Or if you prefer, the convergence of Malzahn and Newton made it happen. But most of the major contributors were brought to AU while Tuberville was here.  You've seen the list.  No need to rehash that.  And no need to pretend that Fairley was a Chizik recruit.  Or that Lutz or Onterrio were either.  Tuberville had them, Chizik reconfirmed.  It wasn't like he had to go out and discover them.  Due credick.

He was bagging my groceries.  I saw the ring.  He offered his opinion.  What can I say.

Are we talking about Darvin Adams now?


What?  Too soon?

CTT was on John and Barry out of Montgomery yesterday. Good interview.  He was all class and had nothing but great things to say about this staff and team.  Said he was so nervous, he could barely watch the BCS game.

Don't know if they have a site where you can pull up the interview but it'd be worth the listen.

Couldn't find the interview, but this sounds similar.

DALLAS, Tex. – Former Auburn head coach Tommy Tuberville guided the Tigers to an undefeated season but, in one of the greatest BCS controversies, never played for a national championship. Attending the American Football Coaches Association Convention this week, the former Tigers coach was beaming with pride when talking about his old school winning a national title Monday night.

But he had to confess that he just couldn’t watch Auburn raise up the trophy live.

“You know, I didn’t watch what happened,” Tuberville said. “I got so nervous because a lot of those kids are mine. I told my wife, we’re going to go eat and I’ll tape it. After I knew who won, I came back and stayed up and watched it in the middle of the night.

“That’s hard what they just did. They could have lost three or four games.”

Tuberville was head coach at Auburn from 1999 to 2008, including an undefeated season in 2004. He recruited many of the upperclassmen on the team, including Defensive MVP Nick Fairley.

“We recruited him. We watched him play basketball and you could see it coming,” Tuberville said. “He just didn’t have the grades (out of high school). We stayed with him out of high school, got him in junior college.”

In addition to Fairley, Tuberville pointed out one other leftover from his time on the Plains that helped fuel the championship run.

“The guy that probably doesn’t get enough credit though, is Kevin Yoxall, the strength coach,” he said. “We always had senior banquets at the end of the year and every year, every player would thank one guy. That’s Kevin Yoxall.

“When I walked out the door at Auburn, I said I don’t know who you’re going to keep but that’s the one guy you better keep. And they did. That’s the only thing they listened to me about.”

Tuberville is entering his second season as head coach at Texas Tech.

Don't be ridiculous.  That was obviously an imposter.  Prowler said he was jealous, bitter and angry.  Tuberville was a BBQ eating bastard who cared more for himself and dead ducks than he did anything or anybody else.  He couldn't possibly have derived any joy or happiness from watching Auburn succeed.

You go to school with Longshore?

Longshore was my brother's age and went to school with him at Montgomery Academy and Bama.  He lived over on Boxwood a few blocks behind JD.  I like that show and believe it or not, Longshore's blatant Bammerism.  He'll punk Bama at the drop of a hat if needed but mostly, it's just him and Barry ripping on each other.  Don't know how much Doug Amos still does around there.  He was my age and I knew him since grade school.  Over the top Bammer but little known fact, he flunked out with a .00 Buckshot grade point.

[Snaggletiger]

Yeah, he said a lot of the same things in the interview.  Longshore asked him to compare the Big 12 to the SEC on athletes and game day experiences.  He said they have just as many talented skill position players in the Big 12...just smaller. I found that funny.  Also said most, not all, but most SEC schools are rabid about game day but places like Oklahomo and Texass are equally crazy places to play.

Longshore went to Jeff Davis I thought. He played football and was in my dad's class...or so the story goes...

Wide?  I had no idea Larry was fabulous.

I believe you are correct on the high school thing. I know he went to M.A. earlier because he and my brother always hung out.  I had gone off to AU by the time he hit high school.

This has got to be the most all-over-the-place thread in the history of this board. (and that is saying a lot)

I think we have 3-4 different conversations going on.

I don't even know what the fuck we are talking about anymore.

Speaking of history, did you know Brett Fah-vray was never the Super Bowl MVP?

Desmond Howard was, I'd put my money on Simms.  Paaaawl the FBI is gonna raid Auburn on Friday, I know a friend of a guy, who's friends with a waiter that overheard the whole thing.
