I'd much rather him be a part of it from his couch in Nashville, than our sidelines.

    But I agree with you that he had little if anything to do with our program getting to where it is now. He can claim helping us about as much as Torbush can at this point.
    I'm 100% with you. I don't mind that he feels like he had a part of it. Id much much rather him have the attitude he has than an attitude of pissing on us still like Ron polk. He can hop on the bandwagon, I'm all for it.

    Crxxm told a St. Louis reporter that Byrne wanted him to compromise his "ethical standards" so he resigned.


    Yep, Mullen and Crxxm are two peas in a pod.***
    The Plantation has never won an SEC regular season Championship in ANY men's sport with an integrated team. That defines irrelevance.

    By compromising his ethical standards, does he mean firing a completely inept OC?

    If you can't see that he was willing to take out the trash our dumpster fire program had become then you are either too young or too ignorant to understand.

    Croom for all his faults showed us that change had to happen. He was willing to be the catalyst.

    I think it's disgraceful our fans cannot simply thank him for taking over what was one of the chaotic programs ever.

    Seriously. What the heck, guys? Where does the anger come from?

    He is a good man who did some good things here and ultimately did not win; he still supports and roots for the program. We are now #1 in the country. There is NO reason to still be angry with Croom. Just be happy with where we are and stop thinking about him if he bothers you for some reason.

    Crooms fell asleep on a recruit's couch and was snoring. Think about that for a second. That was the guy we paid over a million dollars to as the coach of our program. The guy who fell asleep in a recruit's house

    The guy that told Jackie Wayne that he didn't need any help meeting people or anything as he transitioned to coach. Totally blowing him off. And don't forget- they were both Bama guys

    I wasn't angry until he gave multiple interviews claiming that he is a big part of the reason we are being successful now. Just shut up Croom, and I wouldn't even think about him

    MSU is #1 in the nation. Probably getting new traffic around here? Only to see how sorry a good amount of the opinions are. collectively lacking class.
