I feel like a lot of people in this thread don’t understand what the word ‘snitch’ really means.
A snitch is someone who is involved in the malfeasance, but informs on other people for doing the same things they themselves are involved in. It’s exactly what Fuller did.
Being an innocent bystander (or a victim) and testifying against or informing on illegal behavior is not ‘snitching’.

So are we just going to pretend Jalen wasn’t SEC offensive player of the year as a true freshman and 17-1 in his career as a starter against the SEC?

And the reality that OM fans don't want to accept is that they are, generally speaking, about a 6-win program. Every once in a while they'll spring up and win 10 games, and just as often they'll lose 9+. That's what they've been for 50 years.

#39 Ole Miss @ #26 Memphis (Ole Miss 36%, Memphis +6.2) (Memphis -6)
Memphis is likely going to take a step back this year from where they've been the previous handful of years. They have to replace most of their OL along with their two most explosive skill players. The quarterback is below average. Crowd should be about 50/50, with a lot of rebel fans living in the metro area and Memphis not having a huge fan base to begin with.
Ole Miss is going to be bad, but I'd take the points here.

In the last 20 seasons, Texas A&M has 0 conference titles and 1 season with double-digit wins. I can't, for the life of me, understand why their fan base takes to message boards to talk shite to anyone.
Hell Georgia only has 3 between 1983-2018 and they're apparently already back if you ask their fans.

If you look back over the last 40 years Tech's athletic success is fleeting. Why? The moment they re-jigger things to start to make a run, the Red and Black Machine cranks up and shuts it down with the quickness.
Judging by the fact that GT has a pair of Final Fours and a Natty in the last 30 years while UGA has neither, it might be high time to refocus all that power the Red and Black has.

I'd take Mullen over anyone on that list not named Saban. But fairly strong HC talent across the SEC. The only person on there that couldn't win in the right circumstance is Matt Luke, IMO.

the balance of the undergrad student population is not that much greater intellectually than anywhere else.
I disagree with this premise, but that's not the point.
The point is the outcomes of students that attend those schools is, on average, drastically different that those that attend middle of the road state schools. Getting your foot in the door at Princeton or the University of Chicago puts you on an entirely different trajectory than 'sneaking' into Florida.
And Florida is a very good school.
I absolutely loved my time in Tuscaloosa, but it'd be disingenuous for me to pretend it's in the same stratosphere as the schools mentioned in this case. And that goes for pretty much all of the schools in the SEC regardless of what any rankings might say

If your kid can't get the 18 ACT and 2.0 GPA required to get into Bama or Kentucky, it's probably just as well that they go directly into the family business.

Darrell Henderson, the Memphis RB, was drafted by the Rams. They've still got a solid one in Pat Taylor, but he's a big, bruiser type back. They are also replacing three starters across the OL.

Making student loans available to anyone and pushing that 'everyone needs to go to college' is a political trope that led to the universities to raise tuition and bloat their own administratons with layers of unecessary bureaucracy and useless curricula to appeal to a broader and broader number of students.
I agree 100% that’s the primary culprit of tuition increases. And I think it’s been exacerbated by reductions in state funding.
The flagship state school will be fine, but those 2nd and 3rd tier (but still expensive) public schools are going to struggle
quote:
They are completely fricking the taxpayer in each state. The schools are not serving the best interests of their state citizens anymore.
State universities generally have two sources of revenue: state funding and student* tuition + fees. State funding has drastically decreased over the last 30 years. So that means these schools need to get more and more money from the students through tuition and fees. This has a two-fold effect: 1) tuition increases across the board 2) schools targeting students who will bring in more revenues (out-of-state students).
Because basically anybody with a pulse can qualify for federally-backed student loans, there has been no 'check' on the tuition hikes and people keep enrolling at the same pace as before. Also, there is a facilities race at campuses around the country to entice more and more students to enroll.
Like you said, 'they aren't serving the best interests of their state citizens anymore' because they are instead serving the best interest of the students who provide the revenue (wherever they may be). Without getting too far into politics, this is the result of cutting budgets and cutting taxes and 'allowing a freer market'. For better or worse
eta: *federal funding flows primarily through students as grants. Also, donations and endowments provide some revenue but have remained relatively stable over time
re: "Nick Saban no fan of no-huddle offenses, asks 'Is this what we want football to be?'"

I also don't think those specific offenses even exist anymore. They ran their course, coaches picked their bones for things, but the days of sprinting to the line like a basketball fast break are over. Even the eras original guys don't do that much anymore (Freeze, Gus, Chip, Sumlin).
What stuck around was the multiple option RPO stuff and the no-huddle (both of which we use), but the sprint to the line stuff is almost all gone in 2019.
I think the no-huddle and controlling the defensive substitutions is definitely a strategic advantage. The sprinting up to the line is more of a gimmick.
The RPOs/'packaged plays' are a by-product of using the same personnel and formations, which are required in that quick-snap (gimmick) type offense. I think coaches realized the versatility aspect was much more impactful than the pace or 'keeping the defense on its heels'
quote:
when it was obvious he was going to have to adapt
That's not really true. That hurry-up style of play was in its infancy at the time. In fact there was a rule change on defensive substitutions in 2014.
Ultimately, he was on the losing side of the argument and did end up having to adapt, but I wouldn't say it was 'obvious' at the time. There was debate hence his quote
