I agree that his "pro days" are not something that he wants glistening no his resume...some folks never learn, though. I think that if he could become a "legend" that he would, but chasing the dollar has probably taken that opportunity away from him. But, he still has time to make a broad stroke on the canvas of college football...*if* he stuck with a school. He's gotta have a team to be remembered with...otherwise he's just "here today...gone tomorrow" and folks will mention his name in passing.
And don't think for a minute that if he screws Alabama that those pictures of his tanned mug won't be lining the troughs of many a bathroom. A coach *earns* loyalty and respect at Alabama...hopefully Saban will do that, if he doesn't well then...MSU and Bama will have something in common in regards to fuzzy feelings to an ex-coach. ;)
But, like I said...for now I'll take the results we're getting. And, if he gets over on us...you'll hear from me. ;) For now I just home he can get the secondary organized and stronger and that both lines (def/off) will show up in a big way against ND.
BTW, good empty plane story. :-D
