That's the thing not getting discussed anywhere about King heading into this game. He's faced Colorado, Kent State, SHSU, App State, and a quarter of MSU. This guy has zero understanding of what happens to the speed of the game against a team like Alabama. He is walking into Tuscaloosa as a babe in the woods this weekend. If he starts and plays all game and ATM somehow beats Alabama, I would rank that among the craziest shit I have ever seen in sports. 

Who was the last I ranked team to beat Saban/Bama two times in a row. Saban is going in dry as fuck on Jimbo especially after the shit he talked preseason.

Never unranked back to back losses against same opponent. 

 

Only time I could find any team beating them back to back was:

1. LSU in 2010 and 2011 reg season (Bama revenged the loss in the MNC game).

2. Ole Miss 2014 and 2015

That's it..

Fun re-visit from NASCAR spokesman going off on Saban last summer.  Never gets old. 

 

 

Grades:

Buying players: A+

Coaching players: F

Auctioneer: C-. Has the speed & repeats himself enough, but stumbles over his words a little too much for my liking.

I for one can't wait for the postgame handshake when Jimbo has to look his daddy Saban in the eyes & say sorry for calling him despicable, a narcissist, & eluding to skeletons in his closet AFTER Saban teabags him on national television. It's going to be great.

*sweet aggy bucks were good recruiters last year. Bilbo himself denies knowledge of any NIL program or player purchasing. On the face of it, the players were purchased without Bilbo’s knowledge or consent (yeah, right). Other than the big outlier last year, is there any evidence that Bilbo is an elite recruiter? This year’s class (so far) doesn’t look elite. 
**alluding.

I love how Jimbo is mega-indignant about Saban's dirt, yet claims he himself is clean, when he learned from the master.

For once, neither coach will have to stand on a stack of telephone books to do so.

--I agree. I was a massive Haynes fan since he won the 6A and then committed. I honestly thought he was going to be the best if not one of the best QBs in school history. Yes, I did.

Problem is, we now all know it is not the QBs in this system. It is the system itself. Going to Jimbo as a QB is a death sentence. I would tell my kids to run if Jimbo was recruiting them and how sad is that???

--Haynes King is going to be under tremendous pressure to prove himself against #1 Alabama. knowing this may be his last shot. It will be very interesting to see how he handles it. Good luck to him. You never know, maybe we will get 2 six picks and 2 scoop and scores along with 2 or 3 targeting calls etc.

Fans are on King's ass....gonna be interesting on Saturday.

Q- what would Max Johnson's porn name be?

A- Max Johnson 

Back in the firehouse, my given porn name was Max Wood. Hell, you probably couldn't get away with calling someone that now, even in a mfing fire station. No cr.

Ok- I know we all are pointing and laughing at aggy, and I get the dun in that- but is that buyout really all that daunting? 
they owe him something like $18 or $20 up front and then 8 a year until 2031. That wouldn’t exactly be fun- but that’s a $200M a year revenue stream in athletics right?  Is 4% suck on total suck really anything that will hamstring then or anyone will worry about? 
I’m not saying that’s couch cushion money but they ought to be able to do that out of general athletics fund, right?  Especially as the TV money comes in even higher in the next round?

then you have to hire new coaches, and that will be at least another 8 mil per year plus assistants, so that is another 5-6%. Then you have the massive debt service for the stadium. They would be one of the highest grossing athletics departments and still be operating at a loss for a decade.

They have to buy out the assistants too.  Then buyouts for the new coaches to get them out of their schools 

No one with a brain would accept the aggy job without a big guaranteed amount up front. They set the bar for what to ask for when aggy comes calling. 

Plus the market is going to dictate they’ll be paying $1.5-2m for each coordinator alone.

I can’t imagine any of the assistants have a contract guaranteed past 2023 right?  Maybe coordinator level out to 2024. I mean- I guess it’s aggy so they could do something dumb but…

That's it.. 

where are they now episode:

1. Leslie Miles- probably unemployed doing shit no one else would think of or care to do.   Still the greatest quotes of all time, his shit is amazing.  
“There was a contact between a football player and a cheerleader, male I might add.  That male cheerleader clipped me from the side as I was running full speed, or slower than full speed, but generally in the upper quadrant of speed.  And I hit the ground pretty good.”   
there’s many more including one about recruiting within the borders of the state.

2. Danny Freeze Jr.- on the rebound I guess.   Never got an invite to the Saban reform school, probably because Saban doesn’t like losing and Freeze couldn’t stay in his lane so he was rushing to get with a baller or a singer or a call girl and he crashed crashed crashed, into a ditch.  
 

Jimbo knows how this goes, Bama skull fucks them and he still has a $95M parachute that he can glide back to West Virginia if he decides to pasture there.   If he COULD pull off the 2x then he’s probably stuck with aggy for the long haul and gets the wrath of saban.   I would actually pay money to watch that shit all go down in a 30 for 30 format.

Alabama is not as good this year. They almost lost to us with Card at QB, and the Arkansas game was pretty close until the 4th quarter. Arkansas is garbage. Alabama SHOULD crush Aggy but they could easily lose. People are wishcasting Alabama is the old Alabama but don’t expect that. 

Yes but aggy is the aggy of old, so there’s that…

This.  Jimbo has made no secret of the fact that he hates CS and aggy culture.  I'm wondering if he's intentionally eating shit so they'll be tempted to buy him out and he can go where he wants to go - WVU.

A lawyer that I used in Houston was named Sean Cody (passed within the last few years in an automobile or motorcycle accident, and it is a shame, he was a great guy)… I forgot his website, and typed in Sean Cody.com… yeah, that’s a gay porn site.

This is a nonjudgmental crowd.  You don't need to invent a reason why you check out gay porn sites.

Badass Bilbo Aggins kicking ass is on the front page of the mouse network today!

I love how the media outlets tell us every year that they are a top team, then are like "what is going wrong??" when they inevitably are mediocre and losing games to other mediocre SEC teams. If they weren't SEC i don't think they'd get the hype.

 

Another thing is that they are absolute trash right now and nationally there still isn't much attention on them, other than to poke fun. There doesn't seem to be much concern for them. They are as irrelevant as ever, really.

Jimbo hiring an OC is going to look exactly like Tom Herman hiring an OC.  "Why does this offense just still look like Tom Herman's offense?" 

Because that's what it is.  And that's what it will be for whoever they pay $2 million to be overruled by Jimbo during the game to run his stuff and his calls.

I just love how we have known who they are for decades (see roller coaster), but since they were the "little brother" they never got the national attention year in and year out.  So they left to stand alone and boy has the nation been baptized over the last decade to what aggy really is.  A laughing stock.  And the whole SEC / nation will be laughing with us now when we start beating them again annually.
