Skip had everyone’s full support, maybe the only one in my lifetime and I’m pushing 40.

We had ppl calling for Saban to be fired

Just wondering if we as a fanbase are overly entitled and a little bit too toxic, perhaps incapable of propelling our programs to high level success.

Not in this day and age. Maybe 25 plus years ago.

Outside of a few stragglers, Will Wade is pretty popular. That’s about as close to a consensus I’ve seen.

Will Wade is the only coach I’ve seen this fanbase support fully since Skip

If these damn teams could just win a Natty every year we'd be fine, but until then fire em all

Maybe some of our fans are pussys and are content being good not great.

Look at the support will wade is getting.

Our fan base can be unrealistic at times but your lying to yourself if you don’t think that all big 3 sports are an arms race. Becoming complacent is the worst thing we could do.

If Wade is cheating, I do not support.

Let the down votes commence!

Your memory is flawed.

There were fans calling on Skip to retire before he actually retired.

The old standby negatiger phrase "the game has passed him by" was repeated often.

I'd say 95% of the fanbase supports Will Wade, with the remaining 5% being a segment of O pumpers who hate him due to jealousy and insecurity.

Taking your question seriously, I actually think 100% support of anyone is usually a bad thing. There ought to always be some loyal dissent as far as I'm concerned...keeping things honest. And unless we have a person who is without flaw, then 100% support just seems silly to me. Assuming it's done with the program in mind, I see no harm in holding coaches accountable.

What there ought to always be though, is 100% support for the program. Coaches come and go, and by definition are almost always mercenaries. We fans...we're here for the long haul.

It seems like every thread that's longer than two pages turns into a Coach O or Les Miles thread ...or Chavis vs Aranda

Trump is the greatest president of any of our lifetimes and yet there are people that despise the guy.

Same with Jesus.

It is nearly impossible to get 100% of people to agree on something.

Is BASED the same thing as WOKE?

I don’t understand these millennial terms. Google isn’t much help.

Will Wade had it until the scandal

If they would ave hired any coach besides Ed O they would have had it as well for a while
