I heard a staggering piece of trivia on Out Of Bounds this morning. Woody McCorvey was Alabama's offensive coordinator in 1996. Wow.

Intrigued by this incredible trivia, I headed over to wikipedia for confirmation. Upon discovering that Woody McCorvey has no wikipedia page (get busy six packers!), I headed over to the next most knowledgeable Woody McCorvey site, mstateathletics. There I confirmed that McCorvey was indeed the OC at Alabama in 1996. Amazing.

After this lesson in SEC history, it occurred to me that in my haste to forget all things Croom, I'd not followed what happened to Woody after he left Starkville. Turns out, Woody had a one-day stint as South Carolina WR coach. Spurrier deined all reports of a Ninja visiting his bedroom at night and whispering "what the 17 are you thinking" and merely said:

"I take all the blame for it. Sometimes you need to sleep on those things. I should have slept on it and thought about it a little bit more. He's a good coach, and he's a good person. I just don't know right now that that's what we need to do."

Googling McCorvey revleaed that he vollowed up his one-day Gamecock WR coaching gig by joining the Clemson staff as <span style="font-weight: bold;">national security advisor</span>.

regarding McCorvey's tenure here as OC.

He was a big reason Mississippi State won eight games, including wins over Auburn, Alabama and Mississippi in 2007.
We scored 33 total offensive points in those games.

Ellis Johnson just broke out into the giggles.

our new staff and the subject of Relf came up and I said that he still has a ways to go, but he was absolutely night and day from the first week of practice to the spring game. We finally have an actual staff that can coach QBs, I said.

He then asked who had coached QBs for Croom.

Woody McCorvey, I said.

And then we both just laughed and laughed and laughed....

He claims he played one at Alabama State, but if you look in the record books there, his name only shows up under punting. That being said, it also looked like he coached McShanks.

Apparently the crimson is thicker than water. Way to throw a lifeline to your otherwise unemployable former alleged coach.

Better keep that worthless MFer in an undisclosed location.
