Done deal; ALABAMA head coach have suspended for two month see more….

Just a few weeks ago we learned that the rivalry between the Tigers and the Tide would be taking a different turn next season. That different turn was brought on by the announcement by longtime Alabama and former LSU Head Football Coach Nick Saban. If you didn’t hear, Nick Saban has stepped down at Alabama and is now going to be a TV star.

While that move in itself is enough to upset the meticulous balance of college football in the south there was another move made by Alabama which many LSU fans and fans of other teams in the SEC have found to be more than a bit upsetting.

Who is this fixture in Alabama football? It’s Eli Gold, the legendary play-by-play voice of Alabama. It was announced yesterday that Eli Gold will no longer be that voice. I can tell you as a fan of college football who can actually spell Verne Lundquist that upsets me.

Eli Gold like Jim Hawthorne formerly of LSU, Jack Crystal formerly of Mississippi State, Larry Munson of Georgia, John Ward of Tennessee, and Gene Deckerhoff of Florida State were the soundtrack of college football for those of us who are of a certain age.
