how does a bastard
Georgian
student of Mack and of Saban
dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot
in Alabama by providence
improbably at Auburn
come back
to be head coach of a new ballclub?

The blue collar
Florida Gator
with many haters
Got a lot farther by yelling a lot harder
by being a lot madder
by coaching a lot badder
by forty
they placed him in charge of Urban's roster

and every day his teams were being slaughtered and carted away
went 4-8, he struggled and kept his voice up
inside, he was longing for something to put his fist through
the brother looked like he might beg, steal, borrow or kill you

Then the Hurricanes came and beat them in a game
our man saw his future drip-dripping down the drain

his last year, fired before they got to Florida State

took up a collection to send him back to the Plains, and

the world's going to know your name - what's your name, man?
