Does Bama have any boosters wealthy enough to build a rocket that DeBoer can put #5 on to launch into the sun?

u/patrick66 Pittsburgh Panthers • Team Chaos 6d ago

Boosters? No but they do own Huntsville and can probably put one together

u/RichardTBarber Missouri Tigers • /r/CFB Promoter 6d ago

Send him up with a Saturn V and just tell him it's named after his jersey number

14

u/AmazingAfternoon8319 6d ago

They definitely don't own Huntsville. They're not even the best engineering school in their own University system

55

u/FartBoxActual Team Chaos • Sickos 6d ago

Rockets? No.  Submarines on the other hand....

u/MasterTolkien Georgia Bulldogs • Summertime Lover 6d ago

I think they might know a guy…

A Logitech controller you say?

u/TickleMyIvory Michigan Tech • Michigan 6d ago

Hey now it's an Xbox controller, cmon have some standards!

To the bottom of the sea!

u/kingoflint282 Georgia Bulldogs • SEC 6d ago

How do you get a submarine to the sun?

u/FartBoxActual Team Chaos • Sickos 6d ago

We'll have to ask a Houston or UCF flair.

u/bman77_77 6d ago

Huntsville, AL is Rocket City, USA. We got plenty lying around to send him

21

u/bamachine Alabama • Jacksonville State 6d ago

We don't want him to be lonely, so send that endzone ref with him.

u/xbox_srox Alabama Crimson Tide • Chattanooga Mocs 6d ago

I’m willing to chip in if blood or hair would help

u/Worried-Turn-6831 Alabama Crimson Tide 6d ago

Lemme tell you about rockets in Alabama

Pretty sure one of their alumni is the CEO at Northrop Grumman

u/ALStark69 Alabama • Florida State 6d ago

We got the space center and arsenal, I’m sure we can figure something out

u/swagypotatosnoopdoge Washington Huskies 6d ago

if you send him to Huntsville, they might do it for free.

u/Moist-Tart8778 Georgia Bulldogs • USF Bulls 6d ago

Let’s be honest… the people working there are not Alabama fans or from Alabama

10

u/sorryiamstupid UAB Blazers 6d ago

I live in Rocket City. This is hilariously wrong in my experience. 60% is Alabama, Auburn, and UAH alums who grew up in Alabama. 15% is MS State and Tennessee alums. The remaining 25% are everyone else

3

u/Hnry_Dvd_Thr_Awy North Alabama Lions 6d ago

I’d probably increase the remaining category but otherwise, agreed.

Source: I look at the rocket on my walks.

u/no1hears Alabama • UT Arlington 6d ago

What?! Have you ever even been to Huntsville? The people who move there for the space program are a tiny percentage of the population.

1

u/swagypotatosnoopdoge Washington Huskies 6d ago

Fair enough. Honestly wouldnt be shocked if theres more husky fans than bama fans because of companies like boeing

3

u/Aumissunum Alabama • North Alabama 6d ago

I would be extremely shocked.

I have never seen a Washington logo in Huntsville. It’s like 60/40 Bama Auburn

1

u/swagypotatosnoopdoge Washington Huskies 6d ago

Really, I know some people who graduated from uw, worked at boeing until things started really going to shit, and moved either there or down to either florida or houston

3

u/sorryiamstupid UAB Blazers 6d ago

I’m not saying you are wrong. I’ve been in Huntsville for 12 years now and haven’t met a UW alum. I will be on the look out though!

2

u/Nihilisticbuthopeful Alabama Crimson Tide 6d ago

I assure you there are a shit ton of Bama fans that work for those companies in Huntsville. In comparison to other fields, no, but there are fucking plenty and they are everywhere.

1

u/swagypotatosnoopdoge Washington Huskies 6d ago

Well they better volunteer if thats the case

u/r1mbaud Alabama • North Texas 6d ago

#5 is an idiot, but he didn’t lose us this game.

13

u/pappapirate Alabama • South Alabama 6d ago

he really, really helped though

1

u/r1mbaud Alabama • North Texas 6d ago

Definitely wouldn’t mind a minkah or pat back there instead 😬

8

u/mostlycharmless9 UAB Blazers • Alabama Crimson Tide 6d ago

I mean his failures extend beyond that stupid penalty at the end. He was consistently the worst player in the secondary.

3

u/r1mbaud Alabama • North Texas 6d ago

No argument here

1

u/TheGov3rnor Alabama Crimson Tide • College Football Playoff 6d ago

Should use some of those fund to pay the refs instead

1

u/Stuckinengland Penn State Nittany Lions 6d ago

Can it be like one of the reusable rockets please? Recovery launch pad might be available in state college

u/TheChrisCrash South Carolina • Coastal Caro… 6d ago

I don't know if I've ever seen a coach that publicly mad before holy shit

1

u/CheckItWhileIWreckIt Michigan • Rutgers 6d ago

I've never seen Deboer so fired up. I remember him getting heavy criticism for being passive on the sidelines in previous years but that dude was MAD at the DPI no call and that idiotic penalty.
