"University of Alabama president to recommend hiring of Bill Battle as new athletics director"

[Catch Prothro]

I have compiled a list of possible AD's for the near future after Battle resigns.


Joe Namath- 69 (current age)
John Hannah-62
Woodrow Lowe-58 (may have to wait another 10 years)
Gene Stallings-78
Jay Barker-40 (he will be a prime candidate in 2040)


I appreciate any input you guys might have.

What do you whippersnappers have against BB?  Just because he's 71?  Seems to me age and experience are a good match for such a job...Mal had age and experience..did you "dis" him for it?  BB has business acumen also..seems like a good guy for the job..and remember..since most of you put MM on a pedestal..he hand picked BB for his successor.. So?

While we are on the subject..I could never see why CPBB picked Ray Perkins to succeed him..He turned out to be a so-so coach, and had zero personality....for years thereafter, if the Bear's dog hadn't pi**ed on your britches leg, you could not be considered as coach at Bama. I loved, still do, Coach Stallings. Fran was a disaster, Dubose was a dumb pick, I sorta liked Shula, and thought MM lost a lugnut when he picked Mike Price.

Am forever glad we hired CNS..even though I was hesitant at first.

I am a BB fan...and I am a young 68.  (C&BA, class of 67)

Roll, Tide!

Brilliant picks! They could be AD starting around 2050-2055 when Jay Barker would be retiring as AD. Great thinking ahead (way ahead!)

Mal had been a part of the program for over 20 years straight with 5 of that as an Asst. AD. Big difference when compared to Bill Battle.

I thought Stallings was CPBB's first pick, but the BOT passed over him because he was an aTm man.  I could be wrong about that.

I have always heard Coach Bryant wanted Stallings. The BOT did not want Stallings because of his poor record and firing at A&M. Most people don't realize Stallings was coaching a military school during the Vietnam War. Hard to recruit and win there at that time.

The Junction was CPBB's version of the 4th Qtr. program-- LOL-- CGS led by example --same as Coach Bryant.
