wish i could watch videos at work
I'd say this is the ultimate SAFE FOR WORK video here, homes.
I have a man crush on Coach Chiz.
no i literally can't watch videos at work. blocked with no sound. jerky i.t. dept.
Maybe James can author a workaround. He's savvy like that.
As for Leon Hart, if he wasn't good, Elton John would have never written that song about him. You know Leon was a good man. We just didn't utilize him.
Jay, what was the official reason Chris Slaughter didn't play in the Iron Bowl?
The official reason is that he had a family medical emergency.
John - I'm stealingthehellouttayourflair.
Good video! Chiz seems very "motivated" right now. It's exciting!
Sounds like something I shouldn't try to read anything to. I am just disappointed he won't be back.
Is the audio choppy...or stuttering for everyone or just me?
Big MikeZ16, the video stuttered for me a bit at the beginning. I assumed it was due to numerous simultaneous accesses. It cleared up pretty quickly.
Jay,
Was that interview in the dining hall?? Notice the swinging door in the background.
Jay how tall is Chiz? Where do you typically do this interviews, the coach's office or a lobby?
MAN I like Gene Chizik's attitude!!!! I do hope it translates to success on the field. But boy I like the way he's setting the bar.
Steve, I'm disappointed Slaughter won't be back too. I was at the Ole Miss game and I thought he played very well.
I thought coachs had learned not to use death references after Tubs "pinebox' fiasco.
Mon--Which ones? I think the "Don't make me go all Crazy White Girl on You" has Omnica written all over it.
I'd send Jay some flair, but he won't add me as his friend. I think he's waiting for the ESPN job when he can just have "fans".
Sniff....
AUBIGCAT--chiz is not tall. i beleive under 6 feet. will saw him at a b-ball game and said he's not nearly as big as he looks on camera
j-z ... I haven't yet received a friend request from anyone named "jz" or who has the initials jz or who identified himself as "jz from HABOTN."
Jay...look for someone with the initials JC. Just giving you a hard time. I didn't really think you were big timing me. Ha...oh wait, you weren't big timing me were you?
So RR rescheduled his visit? Hopefully that means he really wants to visit, but couldn't get it scheduled this weekend.
I think having more time to get to know him and recruit him to AU, before he visits, and having last shot at him would be a good thing.
JGT,
Glad to see the drink machine is still in the Rain room!
There used to be a popcorn maker in there too!
I am on Jay's friends list. I suck up to anyone who is going to make it big time at ESPN.
As for Chizik's hieght, it shouldn't matter. What really matter is the size of his head, and I think he has most SEC coaches beat.
Opps meant Rane room
Zteve I have always been impressed and a little scared of the size oh chiz's melon
i hit play. i watched the video. it made me happy. :)
the phrase 'saturate this state'.....me likey.
FrontRim, that is okay. Hooked on phonix worked for me too.
Jay GT- GREAT video work. I had to pause Elvis Costello, but it was worth it. Thanks!
I'm glad I'm not j-z's facebook friend. I hate flair.
What is worse:
Trivia Girls or Kyle?
Is it just me or does CGC sometimes get a look in his eye that makes you think he shot a man in Tucson just to watch him die? I swear I think he should have a few teardrops tattooed under his eyes.
War Kicker on a Stick! Be afraid Wes Byrum, be very afraid.
Luv, remember that Tubs was so impressed by Slaughter's Ole Miss performance that he summed it up by saying it still wasn't as good as Rod Smith's.
Is there anywhere else I can find the video? It stutters so badly for me that I can't make out a word.
Thank you for your support.

I like the fact that he always wears a starched shirt and sport coat.
Not just warmups...I guess that will come later.
While Obama is fixing college football, he should ban place kickers (not punters). You should either go for 1 from the 3 or go for 2 from the 10. Kickoffs are punts by the punter from the 40.
You gotta like a coach that might be just a little bit killya crazy
Not to sound like a complete idiot, but what is "flair"?
Monica-
thanks for the RR visit update on last thread. I guess that means he'll (hopefully) visit the last weekend. He's supposedly going to hell, er I mean Tuscaloser next weekend
I do like a lot of what Chizik says, but I don't get my hopes up too much. I could talk the talk, but my idea of improving the team would be to pump music into practices, primarily CCR and possibly some Sammy Hagar.
Sensi - place kicker phobia?
Luv,
It is either THIS
OR
THIS
For "Flair", see the greatest movie of all time, "Office Space". Flair is cute little decorations/buttons you wear on a uniform to express your personality.
yeah, as much as i like what chiz has done so far, i keep reminding myself that we have yet to play a snap of football with chiz as h.c.
Mr. Sensible, I was kinda ticked off at the statements Tuberville made about Slaughter's performance in the press conf. after the game.
And that's why your practices would rock Zteve
BigMike, put me in the not a fan of the current AU PK (not Morgan Hull, the other one) for reasons I cannot disclose here.
our pk has problems for sure
"CCR and possibly some Sammy Hagar"
'Cause nothing says I understand 18-19-20 year olds like CCR and the Red Rocker.
LOL, SteveFC! LOL!
I promise this is the last time I'll comment on this.
Fox should stick to ruining shows like 24 and American (Sham) Idol . Just leave college football to the other networks. Except CBS – you suck too!
So, should we schedule a blanket party for Wes Byrum?
We had a kicker back in the 80s that missed a field goal that would have won the Iron Bowl. He was suppose to get a scholarship but didn't because of that kick. He transferred to Florida and beat our buts with a 90 yard field goal. Okay, well, maybe it was more like 50 yards, but it was long.
The lesson is, don't give up on your kicker.
Steve, thanks for clearing that up!
PF, I don't like flair either.
Can we even call what Florida runs "The Spread" honestly?
Zteve... Good idea, but not violent enough. We need Rage Against the Machine, Public Enemey, and maybe a little NWA thrown in to mellow everybody out.
I'd like our team to be mean enough to re-enact the opening scene in The Last Boy Scout.
SteveFC,
I'm not on the anti-Byrum train because he tanks a few kicks. It's other stuff.
Hey, this rap music would produce thugs. Listening to a little "Fortunate Son" or possibly "Heavy Metal" would develop the proper mindset.
Mr. Sensible, youtube is blocked here at work. I'll have to check those out when I get home.
By the way, I would kick any player that listened to James Taylor off the team. We have to have our standards.
J-Z,
As Requested
You know Chiz looks like he could listen to a little Rage, or maybe Slipknot, to get a little of the crazy goin'
Sensi, is your new avatar a picture of you? Somehow I had the impression you looked just like Sly Stallone.
For Your Slipknot Fans
Always annoyed me that we didn't mind leaving games to hang on the fate of a pk. I'd much rather more 10 point + wins and less 3-2, 14-13, 9-7, 10-9 .... makes you old before your time.
We might play some John Sebastian for Coach Dye. That Welcome Back Kotter theme seems very appropriate.
Tar - You're welcome. Time will tell.
Nah, that was Senor Cowherd. I got tired of Stallone and I can't settle on a new one.
This is the real me.
Big MikeZ16, I don't mind close games. Actually I love them, but only if they are games where I feel like we play well. I can't stand games were the winner is determined by who makes the dumbest play.
JGT - Fables of the Reconstruction
Did any of you hit the local cinemaplex to watch the BCS game in 3-D?
Thanks Mr S.!!!
any hip hop music must be on, or related to songs on the Old School Hip Hop cd available at Target.
Sensi, a co-worker of mine (big Gator fan) went to the 3D showing here in Knoxville. he said it was unbelievable. better than any HD he's ever seen.
Scottie B.,
I bet it was. I got the non-HD pre-stretched version from WCOV in Montgomery on Knology here. It was fine though because I don't think HD would have improved that terrible broadcast. I've seen better on TrojanVision from Troy University.
I love the Birmingham Olympics avatar Sensi. Is it true that tractor pull will be added as an olympic sport at that olympics?
If they can Free Larry Langford in time, SteveFC.
It could also be the first olympics with a contestant wearing overalls.
Birmingham will NEVER host the Olympics.
LuvAU1968, you never can tell. Winston no longer sponsor's nascar. Maybe we will have the Birmingham Winston Cup Olympics. It should make for some interesting advertising.
I can't stand La La. I still can't believe he ever got elected!!
I hope birmingham gets the olympics. nobody understands synchronized swimming and rowing like bama and nascar fans
I have come to the conclusion that Oklahoma is the Denver Broncos of college football. 5 losses WOW.
Zteve, I like the close games as well, especially if we're the underdog. I wouldn't mind though seeing what it's like to beat everyone by 21...just for grins.
TB,
Wouldn't the Buffalo Bills be a better comparison?
amen
Luv,
I now how he got elected. I'm still not sure why either.
Probably but both went to the dance and couldn't pull it off. How many times did Elway go?
Four. He lost 2 and won 2 form my recollection.
Did anybody here Tim Brando on Fbomb? I just listened to it and it is funny. The "Auburn Fan" was a moron.
Well I guess the Bills are a better comparison. I thought he had lost more than that.
The Bills 5 straight losses in the super bowl were incredible. They came so dang close so many times that it was terribly sad.
I am pleased to see Chiz listing offensive linemen as a priority. I would prefer to just list linemen, because many good offensive linemen come from the defensive side of the ball.
Receivers and a QB make sense as a priority.
Bills lost 4 straight.
Some interesting football notes:
K. Steele bama's DC is officially a Clemson Tiger now.
Ruben Randle reschedules his visit to AU. He was suppose to be here this weekend and is now scheduled for Feb 4th. FYI that is National signing day. Dont know what that means but I take it he doesnt plan on picking a school by that day. Terrell Pryor, last years #1 player, waited until well after before he decided. Petey Smith also rescheduled.
What is the story with Steele? Why is he leaving the crapstone? Is it Saban's winning personality?
I just read where signing day is Feb. 6th.
I think it was Feb 6th last year. It's usually the first Wednesday in Feb. Everything I have seen has said Feb 4th.
Maybe one of our resident Bama fans can tell us the deal with Steele going to Clemson.
In the second part of the video when Chzik mentioned the commits that we have had in place for a long time, did it seem like he was wishing he could get away with pulling those offers? Like maybe the Tyler Knight kid from GA?
Football (Regular Period) Initial Signing Day February 4, 2009
Final Signing Day April 1, 2009

In the coming months I think it will be more and more apparent to people that under Tuberville, AU really was a program in decline heading down the back side of the bell curve. We are not near so talented as some seem to think (recruiting rankings or no recruiting rankings) and we have (BIG) holes to fill along with shallow (as in if this were a pond, it wouldn't come up to your ankles) depth in a lot of spots.
I am glad Chizik is here. I dunno if he is the next great coach at AU or not, but the Tuberville error wasn't going to get any better. That's why Tubs took the money and got out.** He knew it was going to get worse before it gets better.
**JGT says Tuberville wasn't fired and could have returned. I believe that is correct.
I also have a mancrush on Monica. Wait...I mean I'm a man and I think Monica's a hottie. Is that what I mean Omnica?
Randle now scheduled to visit on a Wednesday? I guess since they don't have "recruiting weekends" after January, it doesn't matter what day of the week it is.
Yes, that is what you meant. :-)
ha
Roman, other than the Tony Franklin Experience, I had seen consistent improvement in the program over the years under Tuberville.
But Tuberville is gone and will not be back. We need to focus on the future.
Roman = taking thoughts from my head and posting them on HABOTN
Monica agrees with Roman.
I cannot believe I missed the Office Space discussion!
damn work.
Monie, are you still mad at me?
Yes, I'm going to have to disagree with Steve and side with Roman. I started attending games in 1999 and, except for 2004, I have seen a steady decline.
Monica, I see the male Hotties enjoy flirting with you too. ; )
Aubie's boss: Looks like you've been missing a lot of work lately.
Aubie: I wouldn't say I've been *missing* it, Bob.
Mr. Sensible, thanks for the further explanation of "flair" with the video. At first, I thought it was an episode of Friends until she flipped the guy off! LOL (I'm not much of a movie person)
I agree wholeheartedly with Roman and not just because Monica told me to. Tuberville was on cruise control ever since 2004. He did a lot of great things while at AU that benefitted the school and the program, but he simply lost the fire and wasn't willing to try and rekindle it. Plus, he would not have endorsed Kicker on a Stick.
Aubie - I don't even remember what you're talking about so that's a no. :-)
Luv - Flair is a Facebook thing.
j-z, I agree with your assessment of Tuberville.
Luv, I'd send you flair if you were on facebook.
Thanks, j-z, I love chatting on HABOTN, but I really have no interest in Facebook or MySpace.
This is crazy. If producive at the office, I can't keep up with the witty banter and hot new news.
Hey Omnica, how about a nightly recap? Maybe Mon's Daily Top 10 things from HABOTN.
We could all agree to play "Things I learned today on HABOTN" at 7 pm CT.
HA @ your avatar Big Mike
Did you say a nightcap?
I would imagine that "What I learned today on the HABOTN" would be entertaining.
Strange, I thought the Franklin Experience was all about re-kindling the fire. We started out averaging 8 wins a season under Tuberville and gradually got to 10 wins. That is progress to me.
By the way, I use to feel different because I base my life off the movie Office Space. Discussions today have made me feel much better about it.
