I am quite certain that Mr. Brooks knows a lot more about football than Mr. Corso.

Got ahold of what looks like a recruiting “wish-list:”

I want rustlers, cut throats, murderers, bounty hunters, desperados, mugs, pugs, thugs, nitwits, halfwits, dimwits, vipers, snipers, con men, Indian agents, Mexican bandits, muggers, buggerers, bushwhackers, hornswogglers, horse thieves, bull dykes, train robbers, bank robbers, ass-kickers, shit-kickers and Methodists.

No letter-head…any guesses? Oh wait, never mind…this is Coach Croom’s “who I DON’T want” list.

If Mel Brooks and Lee Corso were separated at birth, Mel got both brains.

Throw out your hands
Stick out your push
Hands on your hips
Give it a push
You’ll be surprised you’re doing a FIGHTING IRISH PASS BLOCK.
VOILA!

The best line from that movie was left out. Richard Pryor wrote it in the original story and Kris Kristofferson talked about at Pryor’s roast.

During the scene where Madeline Kahn is saying “It’s twue! It’s Twue!” Clevon Little was supposed to say “Stop it, you’re sucking on my arm.”

Crap, Orson…see what you started? Now you have to have a post that completely casts “Blazing Saddles” with coaches and players.

Annnnnnnnd…go!

MCab-

May your next target have a Grey Suit Warehouse in Tuscaloosa.

Casting – no matter what, you have to cast the “Campfire Farting” scene with Tom Amstutz, Ralph Friedgen, and Mark “Century 21” Mangino.

Bring your own gas mask, gentlemen.

I heard a story about Corso from when he coached Indiana, not sure if it’s true or not. Corso never beat Ohio State. In fact, for his first few years, he never even held the lead in a game. During a game in Bloomington, IU took the lead and Corso called a time out so he could walk on to the field and take a picture of the scoreboard. Apparently, it is his life long goal to make an ass of himself in public.

Re Corso/Brooks.Spot on. The first time wife saw Corso on GameDay she asked why was Mel Brooks on a college football show.She still gets them confused.

I gotta think Pete Carroll is Hedley Lamarr.

And clearly either JoePa or Bobby Bowden is Gov. LePetomaine.

No, Tuberville is Hedley Lamar.

Houston Nutt as Gabby Johnson

Pete Carroll as Howard Johnson

Sly Croom as Bart

The Orgeron as Mongo

God, I can’t think of who should play the Waco Kid…so many possibilities…

Suzy Kolber as Lili Von Schtupp

And of course, Nick Saban doesn’t have time…oh, whatever.

  1. - Corso himself bragged about that on Gameday a couple of years ago.
