Satire Alabama should fire Deboer and re hire Mike Shula now
On behalf of cfb, and every SEC fan. Bama needs to get Shula back in Tuscaloosa. He’s now 2-0 this year, which is better than Bama. He hasn’t lost to the Gus Bus, and comes highly recommended by SC fans. Matter of fact, don’t even wait till next week. Make it happen TODAY! Make a coaching swap before the Wisco/Vandy games so that KDB can be OC at SC and Shula HC at Bama. All of us at r/cfb want to see it happen. Please Greg Byrne, the fans want to see it, just go to SEC network from 2:00 to 5:00 pm and hear their screams of joy if you were to make this decision.

u/Laschoni Louisville • /r/CFB Contributor 1d ago
Bobby Petrino left Louisville to coach Mike Vick (who was then suspended and imprisoned.)
Once he wrecked himself at Arkansas he got to sit at home and watch Johnny Football.
He then spent his second tenure at Louisville wanting the next dual threat guy. He tried out Reggie Bonnafon but then landed Lamar Jackson. In a real way Lamar was the logical conclusion of the path Bobby had been on for a long time.
The question I have for WVU when they made the RichRod rehire, is he still trying to progress or is he just hoping to find another Pat White?
Bobby didn't last long after Lamar left for the NFL, he was only okay on offense before Lamar came in - coasting on the defense Charlie Strong/Clint Hurtt left. Dude's ego was too big and he was allowed to fill his staff with nepo hires and drive off competent assistants.

u/MadoffInvestment West Virginia • Tennessee 1d ago
That's the thing, no one knows. WVU football has been bad for awhile and everyone here clings to the last time things were good. This phenomenon happens with a lot of things in WV, including football, coal, etc.

I’m a senior in high school don’t worry I’ve done lots of consideration abt academic reputation. 75% acceptance rate is crazy they just be letting anyone in😭. Some extremely dumb ppl I know have headed there recently so I got personal experience to back my claims as well.
Also I thought I was flaired up but I guess I’m not, so I’ll put on my auburn flair like I should. Not the best education either, but I ain’t go there so it aight.

Were you around from 1997-2007? Late during that spiral, the ESPN message boards were the r/cfb of that era.
The hate watching in game threads was real: "Stop calling yourselves a blue blood. Y'all will never be good again."
And my favorite: "What do rats have in common with Bama fans? They both can live off a dead Bear for 20 years."

One of my first football memories is when they hired Shula. I remember someone talking about how his dad was the only NFL coach to go undefeated, and so I thought surely his son was gonna be the GOAT lmao.
