Amarillo Tide

What ticks me off is that the NCAA fought this in the courts for literally years and yet knew they were going to lose in the long run. They were trying to delay this as long as possible yet it never dawned on them to maybe have a plan when they eventually lost.

What's worse, they STILL don't have a plan. It's like the Wild West out there. I agree that things are probably going to get much, much worse before this entire house of cards comes tumbling down.

I'm a proud alum and love all things Alabama but like others have said, this insanity has kind of killed my enthusiasm for the game. I care but not like I used to.

That’s some revisionist history if I’ve ever heard it. You made every excuse known to man for Milroe even when he was horrendous and had an epileptic seizure at the mere mention of Simpson getting a shot.

Because you've been to every single practice for the past two years to say that?

Simpson isn’t as fast as Milroe but IMO he has a lot more wiggle/shiftiness than Milroe had.

I was reading an article on MSN and they were ranting about how the refs "screwed BYU" with a technical foul that supposedly changed the outcome of the game. :rolleyes: Yeah, BYU losing had nothing to do with all those 3s that were falling for Bama. Right.

I'm beginning to wonder if the anti Bama bias in football is migrating to basketball?

Bama had good starters on offense and defense during the Shula years. Trouble was, there was ZERO depth. I mean ZERO. I felt like the drop off in terms of talent was massive between the 1st and 2nd team.

Those teams played hard but it seemed like we just ran out of gas in the 4th quarter way too often. Defense started getting gashed badly in the 4th.

Of course, some of the coaching was suspect too. Just a desperate and awful situation.

You do realize that in garbage time, Nick frowned upon scoring late, especially throwing the ball, right? It was usually toss sweep left, draw, dink and dunk pass for 5 yards to the TE, toss sweep right. Very rarely any passes more than 10 yards.

So, it's not all that surprising. Some of you guys act like Simpson was some former 2 star recruit from a 1A high school in rural south Alabama and is a walk on.

Fact is, no one on here really has any idea what he can do. Will he light it up? Who knows. Maybe he will. Maybe he won't but I'll defer to Grubb and DeBoer's judgement.

I'm at the gym the other day on the treadmill and they have a bank of TVs in front of me. Cam is on one of the ESPN shows about the NFL (don't recall the name and frankly, don't care either). What is up with his beyond weird outfits? I guess he thinks he's "stylish" or cutting edge?

Then, his commentary. He's one of those people who are stupid and yet are so arrogant that they don't realize they're stupid. I just don't understand why ESPN has his goofy arse on air. Total mystery.

Apparently, CKD ain't playing this year about strength and conditioning.

Simpson played vs Kentucky last year.
