First scrimmage in the books
- Thread starter CoachJeff
- Start date
Eddie Jackson to have MRI on injured knee tomorrow.
Tony Brown injured a shoulder falling over a hurdle recently and was in black non contact jersey.
Yeeeesh...
LB Reuben Foster suffered a stinger, described by CNS as a minor injury.
Coach did say that it is a recurring thing...

The released stats indicate 39 completions but 15 receptions. I'm sure he had one or two of the 14 not listed.

The 1st scrimmage of the spring is a good sign, but we'll see how it goes next scrimmage. Can they be consistent in their effort?
I"m curious about Blake.. the passes he completed, were they on slant plays? Screen plays? play action? IT's hard to take his stats seriously until we know what plays he went through. I wanted to know if he can change the plays at the scrimmage and did he do it well. Can he throw a long ball to receivers on spot? I'm more curious about his progress than his stats. That goes for wide receivers.

Yeah, I worry about Jackson's injury. Looks like the corner position could be heading towards another frustrating underclassman shuffle like last season.
I saw a writer tweet one of Coop's TDs was a 75 yarder from Blake. Would like to know what the route was.

If it was a 75 yard, Probably was a Play action, or a post play.... I need to twitter Andrew Gribble on that.
Unfortunately injuries are going to happen at the level Bama plays at, our players play just as hard, if not harder during our scrimmages, as they do during an actual game..Cause scrimmages are when starting spots are won or lost, and they fight for the starting spots at Bama, and injuries are naturally going to happen..That's why Coach Saban recruits so hard..I hate that any Player gets injured, we will be fine though, cause the Players that steps up are just as talented as the Players in front of them..And it gives Players a chance to get the needed reps to step up into the role as a starter when a injury happens this early of the sesaon..
sylve was improving until he hurt his ankle last year. I thought Eddie would win a starting job and TB andMH would compete for starting nickel and maybe non boundary corner. It's tough for a true frosh to start at DB. While I think TB and MH are going to be our best athletes there, I'd be a bit concerned if we start two true frosh at CB.
