I’m sure Mike DuBose will do a great job at Millsaps.
I’m always happy to see a person get a second chance.
But this job being “a landing place where he and [his] wife…can retire”?
I doubt it.
Call me cynical, but I think it’s a step up on a ladder that leads straight back to the promised land of Division I football.
And this time around? I bet you a dollar to a donut that his secretary is pushing 80, tough as nails, and will slap his face if he so much as cuts his eyes the wrong way.
Thoughts?
Repentance+United Methodist college+typing your own correspondence+answering your own phone=no sexual harassment. :)
In the (pseudo) words of DuBose’s predecessor, Mike Price (who I found much more entertaining and who is having a FINE time at UTEP), “Destiny, get me another scotch.” :)
WHO IS MIKE DUBOSE?
Okay T-riels – time for an SEC tutorial. Mike DuBose was the head coach at Alabama before they hired Dennis Francione, who was there for several years before basically sneaking out the back door to take a job at Texas A & M, who was succeeded by Mike Price, who left only months later in the midst of a scandal involving a “dance club” in Pensacola that led to some legal woes, who was then succeeded by Mike Shula, the current Bama coach.
DuBose was the first coach to really succeed after Bear Bryant…but he had an eye for the ladies, which led to his downfall, I’m afraid. He then went to work at a high school down in south Alabama, took an asst. coaching job at Millsaps, and has now been promoted to head coach at Millsaps.
Feeling up-to-speed now? :-)
I have to say that my daddy was the only one out of 5 children NOT to go to Millsaps. His 3 older silblings turned out mighty fine but the one under him and the cousins since have all gotten Mill ZAPPED. ‘Nuff said.
thanks for clearing that up!
