HERE is what BEAR actually said to his players at the half of this game: "Men, be sure that before you go to bed tonight fall on your knees and thank GOD for the GREYMOOSE, John Mckay, and the entire Southern California football program for saving the UAT football program.
@greymoose1000 but he was told "no" by McKay (Bryant said he just had to make sure McKay was joking about wanting his position). Among other things, by that time, Bryant had visited southern California (the area) many times and had fallen in love with it for a myriad of reasons which basically made Bryant think "ain't no way John's leaving this" (not an actual quote). Anywhoo, lotta mutual respect between the two of them. Perhaps more importantly, two true friends. Later, man
@greymoose1000 When Bryant decided to leave for the Dolphins, he was charged with finding a replacement "as good as" he was. He had 3 choices in mind (Royal, McClendon, and McKay), but knew McKay was the only one with the slightest (VERY slight) chance of replacing him. I'm sure you know they were very good friends, and McKay was more joking with Bryant when he once said he'd like to take over for him if he left Bama. Bryant ultimately did ask McKay to replace him.......(more)
@greymoose1000 Bama is hopefully about to win their 3rd National Championship since Coach Bryant died, and we've heard we've lived "in the past" all along. If "living in the past" continues to produce a National Championship at Bama every 6 to 9 years (on average), I'll take it. I actually like you, Moose. You're consistently entertaining and passionate about one of the greatest programs of all time (USC). That's good stuff in my book. Lane's done a heckuva job out there too.
Where have all the heroes gone? This country could use a leader like Bear Bryant right about now.

Men, we would be ahead right now if I had just stayed away from the Jack DANIELS before the kickoff!
