I wish Jack Cristil was here...

...to deliver a scathing radio call that would help us reach a point of critical mass and lead to Moorhead's removal just like he was able to do to Sylvester Croom.

I could've sworn that was Jackie's last game vs Bama but I've seen many references to it being a Croom game. I guess I'm Mandela-ing it.

2008 Egg Bowl, Ole Miss 45 MSU 0

No scoring drives, McRea suffered a compound fracture, the only "drive" he could give that was positive was his drive back to Tupelo "...and I hope it is an uneventful one."

You are correct. It was 2003 Bama

I sat with Jack in a bar a number of years ago on our basketball road trip to Florida. He was on a roll talking football and you name it. He was quite eloquent (he could be that way!) describing the past year’s football debacle. Man, I would give a gold dime to sat with him now and hear his opinion regarding this past football season. He was one of the best ever!

I wonder if he really knew how beloved he was. Truly a legend.

No, it was Alabama, around 2002 or 2003. It was a 31-0 loss. I think we crossed midfield once.

Still needs a statue.

 

[TBone.sixpack]

He sure does.

I wish Jack Daniels was here

If we’re gonna do statues, Jack Cristal would be a great place to start.

 

[jdbulldog]

I think we should name something in his honor. Does our press box have a name on it?

That would be cheaper than a statue so Cohen might go for that.

That man suffered enough. Let him rest in peace.

That man suffered enough. Let him rest in peace.

Yep, wish he were here, but not to observe this football disaster. He endured more than his fair share. Let's simply remember his hilarious, spot-on takes on JoMo-esque teams of yesteryear.
