some rumors that if bama doesn't give oc to locksley, he'll head to fsu as oc. lots of moving parts right now, and not sure anyone knows what's gonna happen, including most of those involved.

edit: misread you're comment mctwerps. that's right.

Well, right or wrong, it took me a LONG time in my brain to read it as mcwterps rather than mctwerps. It's just a collection of letters that lends itself to the brain trying to re-order it in a bad way... We're not doing it maliciously, my friend.
Signed, the guy who used to use "bjwarbs" as his handle back in the 1990s...

[Brutus Buckeye]

McTwerps is a great handle. He should have switched to it when we moved over here. 

[FearlessF]

why can't youse guys come up with simple handles such as Fearless, or Brutus, or Devil, or Orange?

y'all don't need clever nicknames if ya come up with clever posts

lol, that's just a typo. my apologies.

[mcwterps1]

Big blow. 

Bell appears to be headed to FSU, as predicted.

looks like locksley is going to get the promotion to oc at bama.

saban wants to bring freeze on as an on field coach, but sec commish is fighting that. from a coaching standpoint, i think freeze would be an excellent addition, from almost every other standpoint, i don't want it to happen. i'd be ok if he was an analyst for a couple seasons before getting another chance at coaching, though. but really, his connection to at minimum allowing a system of cheating to flourish is something i don't want associated with bama.

Sorry for your loss. 
But it's okay. You don't have to win important games to get into the playoffs!

You're going to easy on Freeze. That Saban wants him is disturbing.

Curious if he ends up in Maryland. 
Isn't he crooked?

Yeah, why bring in a guy whose sole asset is his recruiting ability to a program that has no issue there?

I'm telling you...his offense in certain situational ball, was mind-boggling.

ha, maybe. he's not my first choice, that's for sure. but the players were pulling for him, so maybe it'll work out.

saban is friends with freeze. he's known him from his time at lsu i think. and he knows far more than you and i about freeze's situation, and given saban's track record, i'm inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt in making these decisions. NOT that he can't/won't/hasn't screwed up personnel hires before or in the future, but he does have a good record overall of making excellent judgement on his hires. not that he needs my approval or deferral.
to be clear, i don't want freeze at bama. he has, at minimum, shown he is ok with allowing cheating to go on under his watch, and at worst orchestrated and encouraged it. neither of which is something i want associated with bama. it's kind of baffling he doesn't have a show cause on him anyway.
if his personal transgressions were all there was, i could overlook that. none of my business and of little to no concern for his employer either, imo. but that's not the case, so moot point.
