Plain Trouble on Rocky Top; Jalen Hurd transferring
- Thread starter RammerJammer15
- Start date
One has to think that Jones will have to jettison several staff members at the end of the season to stop this bleeding and buy himself more time. I'm thinking Debord and maybe a few others. What do yall think?
If he wants to continue making claims he can't back up there will always be a career in politics for him after this.
During recruitment it seemed like he wanted to play now and win now - Tennessee looked like a place where both of those things could happen - but neither of those things really happened, so a hissy fit ensues. I'm sure he has talent, but it just needs time and the right attitude to bring it to fruition. Wish he had a better disposition and come to play for Bama.
With a new AD coming in, I'm not certain Botch's job is safe if this meltdown trend continues. I hope they keep him on, but right now there what, one 'guaranteed' win left on their schedule (Tennessee Tech)? KY probably beats UT, Vandy might as well. As poorly as Mizzou is playing, there's no telling - nobody thought USCe would beat UT.
With all the hype from the off-season if they end up 6-6 (with players leaving along the way), I don't know that Botch is 100% safe...
Injuries are one thing, a mass exodus is another. Count me with those that though if they dropped another game or two with injuries mounting that Butch would get another year, but if talent is walking out the door all at once of their own volition, that demands a closer look. We've had transfers but not a ton of mid-season stuff.
You could be right, especially if their season plays out that way. If they can lose to a garbage team like South Carolina, then they can lose to potentially anybody. I STILL cannot believe they lost that game. I thought surely they were better than that.
Lots of posters on VolNation speculating that he lost the team after the UGA game. Some are claiming Hurd suffered a concussion and Butch Jones put him back in and then he failed the concussion test. Alabama may extend the streak to 20 or more before they find their way out of the wilderness.
So what was the deal with Kongbo? Did the Alabama staff sour on him late in the process, or did he simply pick Tennessee over us? I thought it was the latter but I don't follow recruiting nearly as closely as many of you.
Unrelated question: will Jalen Hurd be a graduate transfer?

Shoopy could transfer back to Penn State in a junior analyst position for Franklin, or maybe Northeastern U. would take him back as groundskeeper for the Green Line median that runs through Boston, since they don't have a football team any longer.
I was going to disagree with this but then I remembered that they just lost to South Carolina.
i'm still waiting on the puppies to have a players only meeting prior to the barn game and going out to win one for the kirber
