Russell, Thank you for your post!
For the list members who are not familiar with Russell; Mr. Johnson tried to tell us BAMA FANS that Mike Dubose was not the man for the BAMA HC job from the very beginning. Although I was not a member of the now defunct BAMAFAN (Hi to Barney Harrison!) until late in 1998, I read the archives after the fact. I'll be the first to admit that I thought Russell had lost his stark-raving mind. And I believe I told Russell as much on more than one occasion. Needless to say, Russell knew what he was talking about. As such, his opinion on Coach Fran has been highly sought after. Russell offered the following on Coach Fran: >I do believe that we have the right person to bring us back to where we are supposed to be. >I'm looking forward to next season and believe we can reclaim our tradition of being a major factor in the >national rankings again. Translation: Russell has bestowed his seal of approval upon Coach Fran! I ignored Russell when he cast doubt upon Dubose & Co., Inc. Never again will I doubt Russell! Never! Good things are coming our way! Roll Friggin' Tide!!
