I never cared for him, especially when Alabama was screwed over twice in three years in football games by refs beholden to Paterno...

...I remember the one game up at State College where the bama tight end caught a pass in the end zone for the game winner, and the ref either ruled it out of bounds or some other thing, and disallowed it...how blatant was that? Don’t recall anything else with Bama, but one game against Nebraska where a PSU end caught the ball way out of bounds and it was called complete and placed at the one yard line...that was the only game Nebraska lost that year and it cost them the title...out an out robbery, and really soured me on PSU football...

I remember Sports Illustrated did an article about these two games because the calls were so outrageous.
