Around SBN: The End Of Sabanball: Details, Barbarians, And Precision

EVERYONE NEEDS A SIDE HUSTLE

Al Kapone, legendary Memphis rapper, still moves furniture for a living. Why? Because in an unpredictable life, everyone needs a side hustle, a little bidness/enterprise to keep you fed and happy through the lean times. Ours is plumbing. Holly's is African hair braiding and plastic surgery fixer . Doug's: Ice Trucker and Inuit Gigolo. 

Coaches aren't immune from the need for backup plans and economic stopgaps, either. Since graduate assistants are paid in stale bagels and rolls of nickels, they've been doing this for years and remain quite adept at it.  Some of them are real, and some of them are so REAL you can't handle their realness. 

Lou Holtz: thold burial plotsth.

Mike Leach: Divison one football coach

Nick Saban: The most committed, organized, and determined Armani-wearing lawn gnome you've ever seen. Also: greyhound racing jockey.

Well Done

Pat Hill and Bill Stewart are right on. A good dulcimer player is in high demand in Appalachia.

Mike London

Fucking Police detective in Richmond’s hyper-fucking-dangerous East End.

Oh wait, that was real.

Also: I’d never heard of Schwan’s until I visited the gf’s family in NE Iowa. “Um, he comes in and puts steaks in your freezer while you’re at work. Duh. What’s strange about that?”

When I was a kid, the Schwann's guy delivered our ice cream.

I thought he had the coolest job in the world. Boy, was I wrong.

And Houston Nutt’s midwifery isn’t limited to rural areas. If babies are being born anywhere within a reasonable drive of Oxford, he’ll be there even if uninvited; actually, especially if uninvited.

Nutt is also a silent partner

in Juanita’s Bail Bonds and Bridal Boutique in Greenwood, MS. He knows the value of the one stop shopping experience.

Tuberville really did have a side gig.

Running a catfish restaurant in Tullahoma, Tenn.

That said, running a used-car lot is more up his alley now.

I'm Irish. I'm going to have to deal with something being wrong the rest of my life.

I think Les Miles looks a lot more like Steve Martin

than Bobby Johnson does. Johnson doesn’t have the jawbone for it.

Good from the first paragraph

I’m picturing Holly setting up shop like they do in the Carribean cruise ship ports, waiting for wide-eyed tourists traveling to Knoxville.

Neuheisel should have been the bookie.

March Madness is coming up after all. I’m sure he’s not running an office pool. Nope, nooooo way.

Bill Snyder

Orthodontist. Curiously happy about finding the precise point between “I think we can tighten those braces just a bit more” and “OH HOLY MARY PLEASE STOP!”

Also:

Will Muschamp: Houston Nutt’s stunt double
Bo Pelini: Secret Service
Ricky Stanzi: Captain America
