When you have a well oiled machine, why should you throw a wrench into a wheel if you’ve got a mechanic on speed dial? I know cheesy. Okay, Tennessee isn’t quite the cash cow as those two. Bama will continue business as usual until they don’t. It’s frustrating to face two powerhouses . BUT, your words ‘We’re coming’. AND we are. As far as Heupel, Barnes and Vitello, it reminds me of the Flulmer, Summitt and Pearl trifecta.Bama expects to get away with anything because that's the precedent. Nothing sticks to them. They'll keep doing what they're doing until enough people get hurt and the SEC is forced to stop them. Bama and UGA are cash cows. Other teams could be, but it's harder to get there than to stay there, especially when facing unfavorable scheduling. It will be hard to dethrone Saban or Kirby, which has given UT a very difficult path. But not impossible with UT's resources.
UT knows it has to take what it wants on the field. Sankey only stood with UT at the NCAA hearing because it was self-serving. CJH, Barnes and TV have put the SEC on notice-- we're coming. The unified support across UT's marquee sports is no accident-- that's the plan.
Fwiw, that did not happen to Hooker in 2021 Bama game. That happened to him against Ole Miss.Bama committed an atrocious targeting penalty on Hooker in the 2021 game, as you recall. It was clearly intentional targeting intended to injure HH so severely that he couldn't continue. And the Birmingham SEC crew fully endorsed the behavior by refusing to call the blatant foul.
The SEC's ongoing rigging of outcomes is beyond a shadow of a doubt resulting in short- and long-term injuies to student athletes. And risking player safety every week. It's criminal.
What if it were the third or fourth time that Baron had done it to a different QB? And he had just done it this time to a Heisman candidate like Tua or Bryce Young? Because that is what Saban teaches, tolerates, and rewards, with the SEC office crews covering for him. That is how many times Turner has done this minimum. And how many times has Bama done this overall?If Tyler Baron had done that to Jalin Milroe it would've been targeting and a league-issued suspension.
No, it was Bama. And because the Birmingham Office crew rewarded Bama with a crooked no-call, it served as notice that Hooker would be endangered with the officiating crew's blessing for the remainder of the game.Fwiw, that did not happen to Hooker in 2021 Bama game.

I just rewatched Freak's posting of that game. I may have missed a no-call hit but he wasn't knocked out of the game (which is what I interpreted you to be saying).No, it was Bama. Because the Birmingham Office crew rewarded it with a no-call, it served as notice throughout the game that HH would be endangered with the officiating crew's blessing for the remainder of the game.
Coop told the story in August. But everyone was outraged at the time. But it is Bama and everyone in the league has long suffered the double-standard, so people somehow just accept it. I do not.
Another clear example of how the Birmingham Office has a long standing practice of intentionally endangering player safety for the cause of rigging outcomes in Bama's favor. That also should have been a player ejection.
And learning from the Birmingham Office what is tolerated against Tennessee in this clear example, Georgia repeated the act a few weeks later, with a dirty hit on Hendo, which Birmingham also no-called. Which should have been yet another player ejection. And again serving notice that it was open season on the opposing quarterback for the duration of the game. Birmingham rigging outcomes is a clear and grave danger to student athletes safety.
Now maybe there was a like instance in the Ole Miss game. That game was clearly stolen by the Birmingham officials, as well.
Cooper Mays shares incredible story of Hendon Hooker getting his teeth knocked out vs. AlabamaFwiw, that did not happen to Hooker in 2021 Bama game. That happened to him against Ole Miss.
I didn't say he was knocked out of the game. What Cooper said is that Hooker was so tough and determined that he played through it. What I said wasI just rewatched Freak's posting of that game. I may have missed a no-call hit but he wasn't knocked out of the game (which is what I interpreted you to be saying).
Agree with everything else.
Saban teaches and rewards this kind of despicable behavior. It's yet another way Saban cheats with impunity. The Birmingham office endorses and promotes this intentional mayhem by its no-call policy. Birmingham makes it possible.Bama committed an atrocious targeting penalty on Hooker in the 2021 game, as you recall. It was clearly intentional targeting intended to injure HH so severely that he couldn't continue. And the Birmingham SEC crew fully endorsed the behavior by refusing to call the blatant foul.
‘While teaching and developing’ is key here. Oh, lest I forget producing. Most folks don’t know. OLine has to be a cohesive unit when they work together and are comfortable with each other. That’s why we missed Coop at the first of the year.He doesn’t WAIT to get what he has in top form…immediately! Took what was a sieve under Friend/Pruitt and got increasing production every successive season. We heard too long from predecessors that it took time and their own recruits to achieve success with that position group. Same as when he took 3 stars at Mizzou and roadgraded us. He keeps teaching and the quickest studies get on the field. Frustrating as it is for us recruiting fantasy football experts, the fact that an Ollie Lane who hung around for six seasons, starts over a four star redshirt freshman is testament to the pragmatic, result’s oriented system that encourages patience. If you’re the best on the roster, you’ll play! Whether Sid and Mortimer at VirginCampsdotcom coronated you with a suitable number of stars or not. Heup and Ellarbee are a package deal dating back to their time at Mizzou. Heup knows his OL coach will get the best and most ready big uglies on the field AND PRODUCING stat, while teaching and developing their successors at the same time…culture stuff. He’s followed him to every HC stop and to “concern” yourself that he’s replaceable is an exercise in time mismanagement. But don’t stop on my account.
Just ban Dallas Turner: he should be done permanently. Sankey does whatever he wants: he has no excuse but his criminal bias holding him back. No need to counter that it's not permitted: rigging games is not "permitted," but it happens every week. Birmingham is a completely lawless regime.
Birmingham, as I continue emphasize , is endangering player safety with its game rigging. Perhaps Daniels' family should sue. It's apparently is going to require something like that, since Birmingham has all member schools in s stranglehold, and there is no one else to appeal to.
Not only do you have the Turner assault on Daniels. You have all the Turner illegal hits and deliberate injuries permitted in the past that encouraged this latest assault. And, as usual, Birmingham encourages dangerous and illegal play by refusing to call it on Bama. Clearly Saban teaches dirty play, and even excuses his players assaulting coeds. Let Birmingham and Tuscaloosa be sued together. They're joined at the hip, anyway.
The last time I saw Tim Brando a few days ago he was stanning aggressively for Harbaugh and claiming, basically, that while it was within the B1G commissioner's power to assess a penalty against Michigan since the NCAA won't, he should not because Cam Newton years ago was allowed to play in a title game.Brando has me blocked. I only found out because I went to see this post. I've never responded to Tim on anything and would've agreed with him. It kinda pisses me off too given that I've done nothing at all to warrant being blocked by anyone at all on twitter.

What post were you looking for?
My bad: #39,882. It didn't register with me at the time that he was the source. That was a great tweet by Tim Brando. I have no idea why you would be blocked.The BAMA one. I can read it here. It's just that he's blocked my twitter handle from even viewing his posts. It's frustrating because I've done nothing wrong and twitter is important for sports news and such.
