Didn't he have some issues that prevented us from hiring him?
-
Maybe it's just me but he seems soft as a coach. Can't see him being a good fit at Bama.
-
Not sure if it's why we didn't hire him but there were "insinuations" about some gambling habits.........

I live in Memphis. Know a lot of U of Memphis people. I never believed any of the rumors. I think he was happy in Memphis for a good while, waiting for the right opportunity. In the meantime, there were all sorts of rumors explaining why he was still there: Drugs, women, gambling, etc., etc. I never believed any of the rumors. I think I have been proven correct.

And will self impose a near death penalty over minor infractions. UNC (considered a premier public university) has a major cheating scandal for many years involving numerous players, they fought it and never got any penalty. We have a minor cheating scandal and self imposed, what 8 game suspensions for the football players?

This is so true. Truth is if you look hard enough you can find skeletons in the closet of everyone. Honestly, Lebby is a guy that previous administrations probably wouldn't have touched because he wore a t-shirt supporting Art Briles one time.

Did you forget about Jackie Sherill? Maybe not the kind of history you are talking about but there were many that would not touch him at the time.

And Zacharias had to step in and override Templeton to hire Jackie. Templeton wanted to hire Bobby Wallace.

Templeton wanted Bobby Wallace at least twice. If we don't beat Alabama and win the Egg Bowl in 1996 it might have happened.
