I'll put this here, because it's just speculation at this point, but Phil Savage said on the radio this morning that by all indications CJ Moseley will come back for another year. This was on WNSP in Mobile. They were talking to him about the Senior Bowl and asked about some of the players that were leaving early and the fact that AJ said yesterday he was returning.
Take it for what it's worth, which at this point in time, is not much.
I don't think he does much by coming back except increase his exposure, but I'd
love to have him. I've been puzzled all year as to why his name isn't mentioned more from the talking heads. He's stood out on a team full of future NFL players. He plays smart, and makes big plays.
35 yard INT for a TD against UF in 2010.
INT of Jefferson in the National Championship Game.
Tipped Pass that sealed the win against UGA in the SEC Championship game.
Even in our 1 loss this year, he was maybe the only guy on defense who brought his A game. 14 tackles (career high) & a sack.
C.J.'s never played with a mean streak, and that's probably been his greatest detriment. He doesn't play like he should be feared. (He's quietly good, if that makes sense) You tend to forget he's out there because his approach is so business-like. But that's not meant to be disparaging. I think he's the most athletic linebacker of the Saban era. He has the coverage skills most of the LB's we've had come through Tuscaloosa over the last 6 years have lacked. If he comes back next year he'll be the undisputed alpha dog on a defense that has the potential to be even better than this years.
