The Pete Carroll Era is over.........

^^yeah, he could have done another couple of years and been back on top. Instead he leaves a crashing program that is losing a lot of talent. Too bad for USC, really.
Is there a rash of coaches bailing on their teams this year, or is it just me?

Three lullabies in an ancient tongue
He did and it was. His Jets episode was a disaster. Money talks though so....who knows. :dunno:
I have heard a lot of stories about Colt's dad going to the locker room and trying to warm him up.
Story goes Colt threw pass after pass and could not throw it 10 yards to his dad.
I have so much respect for Colt after his statements after the game and even less respect for Satan.
He never said anything like "we could have won if I played". He congratulated Alabama and Gilbert and his teammates on a great game.
Colt is a mans man.

Thanks for the comments, BI. Texas' program is about as classy as it gets and Colt McCoy epitomizes the ideal sportsman whether his team won or lost. Alabama is the champion and should be congratulated as such but a Longhorn fan like me will always think "what if?" when I think about this game. Tough to swallow but hey life goes on.
Curious....what did Nick Saban do or say that made you lose even more respect for him (it's easy to understand why you would have little or no respect for him to begin with but that just sounds like sour grapes from a Texas fan at this point) after the game was over?
Texas likely won't be a serious national championship contenter next year but look out for us again in 2011. We don't rebuild here....we reload. Our recruiting class this year was incredible. Mack Brown may not be the greatest field strategist in the world (that's why he has guys like Will Muschamps and Greg Davis as assistants) but he is an outstanding recruiter and runs a first-class program. I'm proud to call myself a Longhorn. Hook 'em!!!
By the way, Ohio State is my pick for the championship game next year and, believe me, if they are going up against ANYONE from the SEC I will be rooting my fucking ass off for them to win!
Saban was pissed about having gatoraide on his shirt.
He is one of those guys that is never happy. He can't even smile. Life is too short to be an asshole.
Last touchdown was uncalled for. Seemed clear he just wanted to run it up because people would say, "what if"?

He even faked a smile when they gave him the trophy.
All the stories about him having the athletic department run interference so he didn't have to be bothered talking to or being polite to "common folk".
Saban is school in the summer time.
No class.
Hey, hey, hey, it's faaaaaaaaat Albert!

I heard some ESPN talking head refer to Saban's work ethic and dedication. Long hours in the office...
Then I remembered the same network used to praise Tiger Woods for leaving the course and going back to the hotel to work on his game. Silly us thought that meant his golf game.
Saban might be in the office but that film he is watching might be of priests stuffing puppies in altarboy ass.
Thank goodness the NFL playoff start so the Saban worship will fade away quickly

It won't end. Letter of Intent Day is around the corner....then Spring Ball....then the preseason rags come out.
There isn't much of an offseason for College Football anymore.
All that's left to ponder is how many NCs can Saban win in a row and will he go back to the NFL? It's hard to believe that if Pete Carroll felt he had something to prove to "the critics" about his NFL experience that Saban doesn't or won't feel the same thing even more...Saban was a complete El FLOPPO in the NFL...just sayin' :dunno:

It isn't. They worked hard all season to get there, but they had the NC handed to them on a silver platter. Saban confirmed that his team acted like they won the NC at halftime in the lockerroom on ESPN post-game :dunno:. They didn't have their heads in the game in the 3rd Qtr. That's really the only reason Texas came back.
It will forever be remembered as the What If National Championship....

The secret ingredient? MY BALLS
Whaaaaat? Dude, Colt McCoy is ONE player. Texas didn't make it to the National Championship because of one individual player. Is he a good player? Yes, absolutely. But, they're still a good team without him. Their backup had a rough go for the first little bit of the game, but he caught fire and, for all intensive purposes, played just as well, if not better than Colt McCoy would've played. So, what did they really lose in the sense of talent and productivity? Not much. And, every single title that has ever been won in the history of sports is a "what if" championship.
What if the Buffalo Bills were 5 yards closer to the endzone when Scott Norwood kicked his infamous field goal attempt? Would he still have missed it or would he have made it and given the Bills their first Super Bowl title?
What if Tony LaRussa left in Dave Stewart to pitch in the 1988 World Series instead of relieving him with Dennis Eckersley in the 9th inning? Would Kirk Gibson still have hit an infamous homerun or would he have hit a routine grounder to the second baseman?
What if Maurice Clarett didn't strip the ball out of Sean Taylor's hands after he made, what appeared to be, a game changing interception? Would Ohio State still have won the game in overtime or would Miami have won the game in regulation?
What if there were better camera angles and instant replay when Franco Harris made the Immaculate Reception? Would the catch and the touchdown still have counted or would the call be overturned and ruled an incompletion?
:dunno:
