he is now tied with Amos Alonzo Stagg. anyone know if coke is planning a special glass bottle when he beats the record?
Now, now... time heals all wounds. After all, he openly endorsed McGee as a great hire for UAB. I mean, all those TennTech fans that were so excited about him becoming their new HC are still thrilled to have him, right?
Time woulds all heels, and one more loss will forever mark him.
I like to think that he will get that last one and then hang up his whistle. I mean, what else would be left for him to accomplish?
Granted, this is an older article, but it implies that he's already had the record for a while:

He can still aim low and try to achieve lowest winning percentage, though. It's there for the taking with just a few more terrible seasons.
There needs to be a movie.
The Watson Brown Story - Small town coach becomes the Biggest Loser.
Big question is who would play Brown? We would have to have a young guy play a young Watson and then an older actor later in life.
He won't be fully exorcised until we have a UAB coach that can top his bowl appearances (<--why you put an 's'), or, surprise, actually win one.

That depends on how much he gets paid.
Wow. We really have a bad case of Battered-Spouse Syndrome.
With McGee, the wounds are relatively fresh...but Brown has been long gone.
I still say that while dubious, it is something of an impressive achievement that he has been able to remain employed as long as he has.

It IS pretty remarkable, isn't it?

It's not that, It's just that this is a record we tracked the last few years he was here. We are all rooting for him.
Yea we are pulling for hm.
It does say something about him though. Who else would have been given the chance to lose 200 games, while only winning 128?
You can't make this stuff up. Movie material.
He defeated SEC teams and brought UAB to the postseason.
Who else has? I'll hang up and listen.

If you click on Stagg, his wiki has him losing 199 games which is different than that listing.
