Say It Ain't So...

The Register-Herald, Beckley, West Virginia - Where there’s smoke, there’s a booster plane:
There is also this little nugget: I have the actual flight log — the Smoking Gun, if you will — of a plane, registered to the “Tide Pride” boosters that landed in Greenbrier County Sunday morning.

The plane left Tuscaloosa, Ala., at 7:19 a.m. CST and landed at Greenbrier Valley at 9:32 a.m. EST. It left Greenbrier Valley at 10:02 a.m. EST and landed at Tuscaloosa Regional at 10:27 a.m. CST. So this was no rich guy’s round of golf or stopping to refuel.

Somebody was being picked up, and this was all before Shula was officially fired. Maybe Mal Moore, the Alabama athletic director, was there taking a spa treatment before actually firing Shula?

The question is, for whom was the plane intended?

Was it Rodriguez?
