Andy Staples has too much time on his hands, and I like the way things worked out in the actual timeline better.

 

[mittman]

Geez what a bunch of silly speculation. Absolute waste of time for the reader AND the writer.

 

[RedStar]

"What if" articles are fun to read when the writer doesn't have to make insane leaps. That article jumps far too many times and get's pretty tiring to read.

Cam Newton ends up at Oklahoma? How? Bowden magically hires Chip Kelly as his OC from New Hampshire? There's nothing connecting those to reality.

I totally agree

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Staples should really lay off the drugs.

 

[seebell]

Interesting set of possibilities

I could only read thru about a third of it before the utter stupidty of it made me stop.

 

[Dr. Van Nostran]

What if John Elway, Eric Dickerson, Jerry Rice and Lawrence Taylor had chosen to play at Bama in the '80's?

The article was way too long to hold my interest. I stopped after Florida hired Saban.

Fun to think about, but alternate universe stories can go so many ways its pointless to really think about them too much.

There is one point he makes that may hold some truth. If Tebow comes to Alabama, Shula could have remained the coach...and we would be Saban-less.

 

[CrimsonCarl]

I have a mighty hard time imagining any set of circumstances that results in a statue of Mike Shula

 

[GrayTide]

Lane Kiffin to AU, talk about even more reason to hate au.

 

[dadleyblane5]

Hmm......ooookay...

 

[TIDE-HSV]

Guid Lowered...!

 

[cmmiller711]

that is seriously the most ridiculously outlandish thing ever written. more so than the magic bullet theory. and it is awesome.

 

[cmmiller711]

also the notion that Denard Robinson could beat florida in 09 with Mark and Richardson is ridiculous.

 

[crimsonseal12]

If a frog had wings he wouldn't bump his butt everytime he jumped!

 

[Florida Tom]

I thought it was funny.

 

[AlabasterBama]

I almost threw up when I read Shula statue
