How in the blue fook do you steal a damn radio tower!?!?

No, this isn't about going to a Bugtussle steak joint... just interesting about spuat's OC heading to the Seahawks taking the OL coach as well.

Did they screw over Ryan Williams and any other players wanting to leave?

From Seattle Times:

“Though the Seahawks had interest in Grubb from the start, one reason for waiting to make the hire official was to allow a 30-day window for Alabama players to enter the transfer portal to pass.

Nick Saban announced he was retiring as Alabama’s coach, opening a 30-day window. But the window passed Saturday.” 🧐

Promptly told to Fuct Offt

Sounds like he’ll never see a penny of it but for AU, a win is a win!
