Believe me, no one is crying for Alabama except for Alabama. They’re just pissed that the stasis has changed and they no longer hold all of the cards. If the name of the game now is money, and it is, the only advantage that schools in poor states like Alabama have is the money they receive from the networks. For example, the Boulevard…[Read more]

Do we need OT’s though? I feel like RG and C are bigger needs.

Yes! These are the transfers that get me stoked. Bolster the trenches baby!

Interesting..the write=up on him says that he was originally a basketball player who only started playing football in his senior season of high school.

Repeat after me:

I.

“I”

Will not drink the kool-aid until the season starts.

“Have had a small sip”

Dammit

I think it’s best if everything happens in that first second. Alabama ran it extremely well (the four first round WRs, first round RB, and three starting NFL QBs on the roster may have helped) because Tua would either hand it off or immediately fire it to a WR. Offensive lineman might get downfield… but the ball is gone by their third step.

I wish I was Ludwig’s burner. I would be sending this from my boat in the Caribbean. As it stands, I am just a guy who really enjoys option football and schematics.

Yes, there will be penalties the play requires the offensive line to behave in an unnatural way. Unless it is timed perfectly like Jared Goff at Cal the men downfield is a constant threat. 3 yards is pretty nebulous when you are supposed to be run blocking.

nope the only time we faced them was in the 2009 sugar bowl and we won.

Pretty sure Alabama had a bad secondary this past season.

Sad state of NIL- portal era. He would have sat the bench last year at Alabama and not gotten any game reps then transfer. He gets valuable game reps at Utah and transfers. It just goes to show players want $$$. Culture, playing time and buying all in are just words on the team bulletin board. As Tom Cruise would say “ show me the money”.

Yeah there were more than a few, and most of them were more than a little ambitious. Seems like there’s some gloryhunting going on against these crap teams we’ve been playing lately. It’s tempting to try to get on SC Top 10 when you’re already up by 35.

That’s a good idea Charlie. You have to wonder how much practice, if any, the MBB does on their FTs.

I guess you can’t fault the guy for taking a bet on himself. This will be a good case study for guys taking early money now and risking hurting their chances of getting noticed later.

Yea probably a backup role. Probably took a big bag of NIL money to lure him into a backup role.

Do you think he will crack their lineup? He is decent but maybe not first string Alabama decent.

Calhoun to Bama.
