    I was referring to signing people up under swimming scholarships to play football.

    Old 1982 joke.

    Did you know that the Bear was arrested for beating his wife? No what happend. He asked her what time it was and she said 20 to 10. :hihi:

    It should come as no surprise that the NCAA mandates helmets be the same color. From the NCAA rule book:

    RULE 1-4/THE GAME, FIELD, PLAYERS AND EQUIPMENT
    Players of a team shall wear helmets of
    the same color and design, and facemasks of the same color.

    As mentioned here, tension between Croom and his alma mater is hardly new.

    From a 2003 article right after Bama hired Mike Shula:

    Do I believe Bama would be winners if Croom was the coach? Damn right I do, and I'm sure that he knew it, too.

    Lost scholarships and probations aside, Alabama will always win when at full strength, and a Coach Croom as the first and only Af-American HC in the SEC woulda snagged a few extra blue chippers that would have gone elsewhere w/o Croom being in charge at 'Bama.

    Dude, you saw how Ty Willingham got pimped when he was winning at Notre Dame; Croom would have been similarly blessed, and surely that's got to be eating at him still to this day.

    Exactly! If recruits were so easily offended, Bob Stoops wouldn't land a single recruit from Texas the past few years 'cause you better bet he and his coaches flat-out told kids that, if they wanted to win titles, they'd better not go to Austin.
