There were several posters starting threads about it this weekend. Something about him being a Realtor. I don't know. Either way, that's an obvious problem, but then again, we had a Bama alum a head of officiating when they were going on amazing runs of not being called for penalties during the "dynasty".

Even if they don't live in Tuscaloosa, many of them have children who attend/attended Bama or they have some other ties to the school.

Well, yeah. This has been common knowledge for a half century now. I know for a fact 20+ years ago this was the case. Don't know why it would change.

I never watch a Bama game unless they are playing us anymore. I treat Duke basketball the same way. If it is a "big" game in the regular season, you know what is going to happen.

With that said, the last several games in our series have been fine. The last blatant rigging I recall was 2016. That game had some doozies.
