Alabama only offered Tua because Fromm flipped to Georgia during recruiting.
Actually, I thought we were as good or better than anyone by the end of the '87, '89, '92, & '94 seasons and would have had a great chance to win it all in any of those circumstances if given a benefit of a doubt like Bama was this year.I'm going to suggest the same or 0. Those teams were snake bitten. Have to play Florida with most of the defense taking IV treatments for the flu; probably have our best team (1996) ever and Samari Rolle wants to play hero and jumps the out and up instead of keeping Green in front of him; we have to play Tennessee with the third string QB (who still played pretty well until Mark Richt decided to be Mark Richt and called a deep out in wet conditions with a noodled armed QB); and Snoop Minnis can't wake up for a final.....ugh (I need to Irish up my coffee).
I'm not sure Fromm could pass Jimbolts quadratic equations test to get on the practice field squad, but I like him.
+1 SMHSaban can win natty game with backup Frosh but Jimbo can't compete with BC. Jimbo is gonna get his lunch handed to him next season.
