Would you trade Iowa's Program for Alabama's?

[DuffMan]

I'm not saying that you have to be dirty to win a NC or be elite. I'm just asking if you would rather have Iowa's program over the last 20 years, which includes a few conference titles, and several nice bowl wins, and a clean record with the NCAA; or would you rather have Alabama's which includes multiple NC's, but also 3 separate NCAA sanctions, including multiple post season bans, vaccated wins, forfeited wins, and scholly losses.

Which one would you rather have?

If it comes with Saban I'll take Alabama. The guy seems like a d-bag, but the guy is no worse than the second best coach in college football.

I like Ferentz a lot, but he couldn't hold Saban's clipboard.

Alabama rarely losses to teams they should beat. They also don't quit when they get ahead.

I think I'd go with some sanctions and hardware.

Couldn't you have picked another program. I hate Alabama with a passion and living here makes is worse. It's hard to be objective.

 

[DuffMan]

I'm really suprised it's that close. I'd rather have a program I can feel good about.

Easily Iowa for me. I know that everyone wants the NC, but you could easily substitute USC in for Alabama and it's the same thing. I definately wouldn't want to be associated with that B.S.

Iowa no question

Now of course a lot of people will say Iowa, but replace a comparable program, such as Wisconsin, with Iowa and put them up against 'Bama and a lot of people would rather be 'Bama.

Damn, wish I would have thought of that.
