Hey everyone. Quite a night for Tulsa on Wednesday ... waxing Ball State on a breezy night at Ladd-Peebles. Winter on the gulf, I tell ya.
So what do we have today?
UPDATE @ 2:40 p.m.: Gene Chizik stopped by for a minute or two before heading to his next engagement. He said he doesn't know Roof personally, but said he is "highly thought of" by coaching colleagues he trusts.

ReplyDeleteJay's gonna give us Ted Roof's cell phone #?
ReplyDeleteSAVE THE CLOCKTOWER!
ReplyDeleteI don't think Ted knows how many questions we're going to ask him.
ReplyDeleteDo you need Ted's cellie?
ReplyDeleteAre you saying you are #1, Monica?
ReplyDeleteI knew SOMEBODY would get it.
ReplyDeleteYea, pass that number along for me, Monica. Facebook would be fine.
ReplyDeleteThats good monica
ReplyDeleteThanks BigDaddy.
ReplyDeleteBigDaddy, you should post more often because I like calling you BigDaddy, BigDaddy.
Jay G.
ReplyDeleteaight
(p.s. bluff callers = buzz killers)
hmmmpfhhh
I am new I don't want to jump in to early.
ReplyDeleteDid I hear correctly that we have visited Reuben Randle and Bryce Brown? Any idea what they had to say? Who is the new QB we visited?
ReplyDeleteI'm liking the new staff putting themselves out there and at least trying to sign these type playaz. Tubby always did pretty well evaluating talent, but by only looking at players if they came to your camp... It always seemed like the lazy way of doing things. It's good to see our coaches aiming high.
Plus the boss is out right now.
ReplyDeleteWell, then welcome to the HABOTN, BigDaddy!
ReplyDeletei think that number is br549
ReplyDeleteThanks Monica
ReplyDeleteJay...
ReplyDeleteIf you see one of your fellow beat writers that covers Alabama ask them if there is any truth to the rumor that Alabama is trying to work out a game with Southern Cal to be played at the Dallas Cowboys' new stadium in 2010. I would assume that this would be similar to the one they played against Clemson this year in Atlanta.
Thanks.....
A guy I work with got it(AL.vs USC) in a e-mail this morning said they are trying
ReplyDeleteWhy play in Dallas?
ReplyDeleteGood question for TiderInsider, FSJ.
ReplyDeleteAre you a bamer too, BigDaddy?
ReplyDeleteyou mean a bammer like me, you, kristina, and hoopie?
ReplyDeleteSince this is going to be allowed, I give credit to UofAL for at least stepping out there to play teams of note outside the region.
ReplyDeleteThat made my head hurt...
NO no way my brother-in-law not me
ReplyDeletewhew - that's a relief, BigDaddy!
ReplyDeleteWhere do you think I heard the rumor Mr. Sensible?
ReplyDeleteMonica AU 2003
ReplyDeleteBathroom wall next to Jenny's #? (867-5309, btw).
ReplyDeleteI had no idea. ;-)
Dallas makes sense. Kind of half way. Big venue. Like the Ga Dome was for the Clempson game.

ReplyDeleteSup HOTTIES!!!
ReplyDeleteTop of the Afternoon to you....
Well now that I'm back after my morning Shrink Session with Michael can we proceed to lavish praise onto CGC's new Hires?
Can i get an AMEN?
So saith the Shepard... so saith the Flock!!!
Now I will have that song in my head all day...
ReplyDeleteThe Cowboys new stadium is going to be great. We saw it couple of weeks ago. The old one was a dump... no offense Mr.
ReplyDeleteMon I am impressed with your mad facebook skills.
AMEN
ReplyDeleteAUsome, BigDaddy. War Eagle!

Hiya Mobile
Can ya dig it?
Damn Big....
ReplyDeleteSo soon, ok Byeee
(Side not i just can't bring myself to say big_ _ddy.... sorry)!
Yes I did - thank you Mobile for hooking me up. :-)
ReplyDeletelmao Mobile
ReplyDeleteI just walked back in the office and my employee, Billy Bigdaddy, quickly shut off his computer.
ReplyDeleteShould I be worried?
HAHAHAHAHA Aubie - you're great
ReplyDeleteJagz fired from BC.
ReplyDeleteWow!
Sup Mon!
ReplyDeleteSup Jet!
What yall doing... nutin... i'm just chilling
why is that a Wow? we knew it was coming
ReplyDeleteI get the BC thing, but I don't get the BC thing. Talk about something that should have been taken care of in house. Gee I wonder if there's a plags jagz can go?!?!
ReplyDeletecheeseburger in paradise
ReplyDeleteplags? let's try this fingers: team.
ReplyDeleteWhat did you think of Scubs last night, Aubie? I thought the two episodes were pretty darn good. A lot better than the start to last season.
ReplyDeleteSeems like someone was saying it was ruined last night. Can't remember who.
Jets, Seattle - He won't have any trouble finding a job.
ReplyDeleteIf you were Jagodzinski (or however you spell his name), would you sue for wrongful termination?
ReplyDeleteFrom reports, there was no language written into the contract saying he could not interview for another job, especially in the NFL. The AD claims to have had a verbal agreement that Jagz wouldn't leave for 3 years when hired. But, that was supposedly a verbal agreement only (if that even occurred).
Roof to speak with reporters at 3 p.m.
ReplyDeleteI'll get Roof's comments to you asap.
Let the record show that I was not the one to bring up the BC head coaching situation.
ReplyDeleteI doubt he has a case.
ReplyDeleteI guess I thought the AD was full of it. I didn't think hed be stupid enough to fire a good coach over exploring a better opportunity.
ReplyDeleteYoutube has now been blocked where I work. No more Jan Terri. No more Crazy World of Arthur Brown. No more Rickroll. No more Tommy Wiseau's "The Room" (you simply must check out some highlights of this). No more Tommy Seebach,. All gone. What's next, HABOTN blocked?
ReplyDeleteOK ...
ReplyDeletePregame ... season opener.
The PA guy announces the Auburn starting lineup, then all of sudden the familiar strains of the the theme from "Shaft" reverberate throughout Jordan-Hizzle.
And we introduce the starting coaching lineup ...
Ok, Ok. I won't speak of it again. Just wasn't anything else relatively new to talk about.
ReplyDeleteWell, Stafford and Moreno going pro, but we all knew that was happening too.
Mon,
Did Randle or Bryce show any love when Luper visited them? I think I heard it was Luper anyways.
Who is the new QB we visited?
D Mill, you are fine bringing it up. I think some people got annoyed about how long the "Is it right? Is it wrong" discussion went.
ReplyDeleteI for one can't get enough of it. Was it right? Was it wrong? Discuss.
YouTube blocked?
ReplyDeleteDid they take away your window on Tiananmen Square, too?
I just tried to get added to the HABOTN facebook group but I am not sure I did it correctly. There was no way to send a message that I could see.
ReplyDeleteMalzahn and Willis visited Moseley, but I don't know if anyone or who has visited Bryce or Reuben.
ReplyDeleteMichael,
ReplyDeleteImpressed with ABC Scrubs. 1st episode was hilarious. Newbies are great, esp Ed. Loved C. Cox in the roll. Especially the interaction with Jordan and janitor. The cougar m_lf comment was fantastic.
2nd episode was more subdued, heart tugging. Singing the steak night song all day.
I want another Colin Hay episode.
I think people were just saying we need to visit Bryce and Randle.
ReplyDeleteI know a guy who visited Bryce.
ReplyDeleteNo you don't!
Yes I do!
No you don't!
Yes I do!
No wonder you're in such a bad mood, Michael!
ReplyDeleteHi-dee Hotties-
ReplyDeleteMichael--I really wanted to like Scrubs..tried numerous times...couldn't get there. Definitely has a following
If Jags had a handshake agreement not to leave, then he shouldn't have interviewed and shouldn't sue. If not, sue that arrogant AD.
If Big D--dy graduated AU in 2003, I'm not sure that's enuff time to be called B-D. "I'm 26 and I'm a man"...oh..gotta go....the boss is coming"! Just kiddin' B-D welcome
Hey Peeps!!
ReplyDeleteIt is still raining for the 400th straight day.
Seemed a bit damp in Mobile lastnight.
Was at the dentist with my kid this week and Rick "half" Astley came over the muzak.
ReplyDeleteNever gonna give you up...
I got strange looks as I chuckled to myself.
A couple Bulldogs went pro that might help next yr.
ReplyDeleteSorry Mon, wrong Bryce.
ReplyDeleteScrubs is funny to me because, as a brain surgeon, the hospital humor hits home.
ReplyDeleteStafford will have quite an adjustment from the warm climes of Athens, GA to Detroit Crap City.
ReplyDeleteI'm just sayin'.
There's something from B-Matthews on the rivals site about AU visits nations #1 and #2 prospects and the nations #2 QB. I only assumed those were referencing Randle and Bryce (doesn't Rivals list them in that order?).
ReplyDeleteI've got clients that won't allow me to do Facebook. Some security jibberish. Can't bite the hand.....ya know.
ReplyDeleteSo, is it official that FSJ is our official token Bama fan and other Bama fans are not allowed?
ReplyDeleteFSJ is the official Bama fan but I believe there was another that joined.
ReplyDeleteD - I'm headed home in a minute and I'll check it out.
ReplyDeleteSame here, Hoopie. Tried to like Scrubs. Didn't work.
Scrubs is one of top 3 favorite shows of all times. I love the characters and the humor. I will be sad to see it leave.
ReplyDeleteMon - Your #1
ReplyDeleteNew UPDATE on the main blog:
ReplyDeleteGene Chizik stopped by for a minute or two before heading to his next engagement. He said he doesn't know Roof personally, but said he is "highly thought of" by coaching colleagues he trusts.
Picking your nose does not make you a brain surgeon, Aubie.
ReplyDeleteScrubs has lost some goodness the last couple of years, but it still hits its high points pretty well. If I were just now trying to get into I don't think I would do it, but I am loyal now. The first few years were awesome, though.
Sensi, save the clock tower? it's just going to get struck by lightning again anyways. where's Doc when you need him?
ReplyDeletemonnie, you're always #1 to the HABOTN.
So did he talk to Roof before hiring him? This seems un-Chiz-like compared to the other hires.
ReplyDeleteAnd Scrubs is overrated. Spend your time watching Nip/Tuck.
Some Bammer on F-Bomb tried to compare Gus Malzah to Dave Rader ... cause Rader had great offenses at Tulsa. Why are the Bammers so concerned with our new coaching staff? We are making the right hires and I pumped about the future.
ReplyDeleteObviously faker got in and made nice until he got well entrenched before he ever came out of the closet as a bammer.
ReplyDeleteGive him credit though, he is no Shane.
As posted earlier Luper is on one heck of a recruiting trip!
ReplyDeleteWatched Nip/Tuck lastnight....looks like a winner this year from what I saw.
ReplyDeleteditto on the Nip/Tuck Brad. EVERYONE should watch DAMAGES tonite. best show i watched in 2007 by far. 10pm ET.
ReplyDeletenow, back to your regularly scheduled coaching update....
Hey Jay, when you say "No art for YOU!" on this post, I say "you" in my mind the same way Jan Terri says it in "Journey to Mars."
ReplyDelete"It will be an adventure for yooouuuuuuu."
Jouwney to Maaaaaa!
Any Lost fans out there? That show is by far my favorite. It will be back on in a couple of weeks.
ReplyDeleteDo What? Send me an e-mail and let me know what your real name is and I will hook you up with the facebook group.
ReplyDeleteWe also have 2 other requests but I dont know who ya are...so send me an e-mail if you havent been let in yet.
Paladin -
ReplyDeleteCleanse your soul and stop listening to Finebaum. Your IQ will immediately go up 20%. I mean, I went from a 40 to a 50 on the scale (which still means I'm like Brick Tamlin...but that's besides the point).
Over 400 yards rushing lastnight....that is some smashmouth.
ReplyDeleteWow.
Kristina, your attendance at the real HABOTN has been an embarrassment lately. Please correct or else.
ReplyDeleteFinebaum gets ratings by picking on Auburn. Remember, he is in Bammerham.
ReplyDeletePeople who request entry into the facebook group without providing your HABOTN handle ... are doomed to a lifetime of watching "highlights" of the 2006 Capital One Bowl.
ReplyDeleteJG, i had blocked out that Capitol One Bowl until they started doing highlights during bowl week. Yack. What a horrid performance. We pulled a Bama-like-Sugar Bowl performance on that one. Or worse.
ReplyDeleteBrad
ReplyDeleteI am only listening today, to hear some Gottfried bashing.
Yes sir, Michael. I'm still reading everyday, just not posting as much.
ReplyDeleteNo worries, you still get my vote for the funniest hottie...
Jay, I just sent a request to join the facebook group. My name matches my handle.
ReplyDeleteThere is no way to include your HABOTN handle when you submit a request to join.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Frankly, I don't care if UAT is playing the New England Patriots at Wembley Stadium.
ReplyDeleteThat having been said, it'd be nice to watch USC clean UAT's clock.
Oh and FWIW I love Scrubs but didnt see it last night. I can't keep my schedule straight anymore...
ReplyDeleteI knew HABOTN had been missing something...Wasn't sure what it was though..
ReplyDeleteD. Miller, you're incorrect.
ReplyDeleteAbout 10% of the requesters provide the correct information.
I guess we can call it a Facebook Miracle!
Frequent reader, firt time poster.
ReplyDeleteHow about some Facebook group approval- I requested by the name of Tim Sheridan.
/wardamneagle
D. Miller...yeah we know. We dont have that kind of option on facebook. So you have to send us an e-mail letting us know.
ReplyDeleteRobusto...you're in
ReplyDeleteSee, it's not that hard!
That's nearly as wonderful as a Festivus miracle
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'm just facebook challenged.
ReplyDeleteSorry, Griff...I missed you the first time...you are now in too! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThat's cool DMil, so am I. Only there to stalk my kids facebook and now HABOTN
ReplyDeleteD. Miller, you are already in the facebook group. What is challenging you?
ReplyDeleteI know I'm in, I just remember it being confusing.
ReplyDeleteBig Mike..
ReplyDeleteFacebook stalking....LOL
I love it when I am stalked on facebook
Yeah , I know, D. I try to pay attention when people mention it on the blog and remind them to send an e-mail to either me or Jay.
ReplyDeleteOne other thing...I am in serious need of a drink...
ReplyDeleteGrrrrrrr
Drinking while at work can be dangerous, faker...
ReplyDeleteScottie is right once again. Damages is the best.
ReplyDeleteI listen to Fbaum and I'll put my IQ up against yours, Bradley.
I put up a new Roof thread.
ReplyDelete
