Fisher can do better than UAB. Probst would be interesting because it would definitely be a vertical move whereas for Fisher it would be more like a horizontal move.

Don't get mad at me for your incoherent writing. You wrote, "Samford is in Homewood (where Fisher went to school and played)". You should have written, "Samford (where Fisher went to school and played) is in Homewood". That would have made sense. The way you wrote it made it appear that Fisher went to Homewood because you put the parenthetical statement AFTER Homewood, not Samford. I know he went to Samford, but I wouldn't from your statement.
Actually my writing wasn't even close to incoherent...the only issue that I see is that gramatically I should have put a comma after the word Samford. By anyone normal reading it, it becomes quite clear that the SUBJECT is Samford and NOT Homewood. If you'd like me to break the line down for you, I'd be glad to. If you were figuring out what each word is in the sentence, you would say (Samford...where Fisher went to school and played...) because to say (is in Homewood, where Fisher went to school and played) would make NO SENSE at all.

Next time you read a post, you might do well to understand our how english grammar works. Again, my only mistake was leaving a comma out; otherwise the sentence read just fine. Even without it, it should not have been terribly difficult for anyone with an education above the 6th grade to understand.

I know that UAB is not the most incredible topic of all time, but is it so bad that this thread has spiraled down to the point where we are areguing over grammar and sentence structure?:conf2:

Sorry guys, I just don't like somebody correcting something that doesn't need correcting...everybody (I believe) understood my point. It would be like me pointing out that you misspelled "arguing", when I'm sure you did it as a joke.

LMAO!

This right here is why we need a coach hired soon. The ridiculous sparring is just sad to see. And don't get mad at me because you get mad easily.

And yes, your grammar was incorrect and I think you both agree on that. Quit getting ****ed off and snapping at people. And this isn't just you...it's everyone on here who is at "that time of the month". Go watch your tape of the 1992 National Championship game and if you don't have it you can get it from the "Game Videos" message board.

And one final note...Mtn Dew is a high school teacher...so I'd be careful commenting on his education level. You definitely don't want to get into a real argument with him.

Take a deep breath and say with me..."Roll Tide...Roll Tide...Roll Tide..."

Your mistake was placing your parenthetical after Homewood instead of Samford.

Someone's about to get banned, I can see it coming.

Back to the topic at hand....I wish we would look at Fisher more carefully. I think he's a fantastic coach. He has 4 SEC titles on his resume and 1 national title........what Mal wanted was a proven winner....*ding* *ding* we have a winner
