SPURRIER: “…YOU’RE STUCK WITH ME.”
He’s coming to Bama! He’s bringing Brother Bill Oliver with him! He’s…meeting with his players and telling them he’s staying put.
He reportedly jokingly told them, “some of you might not like me, but you’re stuck with me.”
On the desert island of life, Spurrier’s sticking with his girl, whose strapless dress stays mysteriously in place despite a clumsy and very preventable maritime accident.
Thought about someone else…well, he probably did. But he’s staying.

There are only four people at The University who actually know what’s going on with this search and none of them are talking. An attorney for The University met briefly with SOS at the Tampa airport on Thursday. Later that evening Spurrier met with his team and alledgedly said “you are stuck with me” or something to that effect. I’ll believe it is all over when DV actually says it is in a public forum.
I’d love to have the boy at Bama but I don’t think he is coming. I also don’t believe that either Saban or Spurrier is the PRIMARY focus of the coaching search.
Call me Stoopid.

I’m kinda surprised that there has been no mention of the quality of the coconuts in the Huey Lewis video. Also, I have it on good authority from a friend who has a buddy who was a roadie for the band that the News’ former lead guitarist is NOT taking the Alabama job.

I personally think Spurrier chickened out of really going after the Bama job since everyone knows Bill Belichick has said he wants to leave the Patriots for Alabama. I also heard if the Patriots won’t let him out of his contract, Jim Tressel has said he will give up the right to coach for a national title in order to accept the job in Tuscaloosa.

There are still some Bammers who swear that Spurrier is still going to take the job in Tuscaloosa because
a) they haven’t heard Spurrier himself say anything on camera about not taking the job,
b) Mal Moore hasn’t said anything on camera about Spurrier not taking the job, and
c) their bowl of Apha-bits spelled out ‘SOS’ this morning
Dellusional? Thy name is Tide nation.

Bubba,
It is a proven fact that “mary-jane” has decimated Herban’s defense. If I was Herban, and I am not, but if I was, I would have testified for making mota legal. I am sure herban has graphs and charts that show defensive stats with dope smokers and without dopesmokers.
Congressman would listen to that kinda logic

I hope you’re right… did any of you guys see the stuff the Texas fans were posting about Brown?

He wasn’t our target.

panhandler,
I bet if Congress asked him to give testimony on the legalization of marijuana, Herban would have accepted

Well then, you explain it… I have it from multiple people in the SC Ath Dept who work with SOS on a day to day basis. And they were very afraid at the begining of the week that he was gone, but they’re certain after yesterday that he’s staying.
