He's "filler". Like that stuff they put in dog food.

I don't know how long you have listened to Finebaum, but I was hearing him run Alabama into the ground long before the SECN. He ran BAMA into the ground during the Stallings era, and Stallings was a fine man and an excellent coach. Im not talking about after the napkin incident with Langham either, Im talking about well before.
In my opinion, he kisses BAMA's butt because he has to at the moment. Saban and BAMA have been so dominant that speaking harshly against the Tide would be foolish. He has slipped a time or two and Saban ate his lunch, and deservedly so. If Paul was to cross Saban the way he crosses other programs and coaches, Saban would cut him off entirely. Paul knows it and can't afford it. Paul needs Saban/BAMA, not the other way around.
