JessN: Potential transfer portal targets as Bama remakes its roster

[The Ols]

Beck will be a grad transfer. Rules are probably pretty relaxed for professional athletes.

FIFY. 😁

I really would like to see one of our defensive linemen step up and be a disruptor next season. I think the back end of our defense will be solid in coverage, but if we want a dominant defense it starts at the DL.

James Smith seems poised to make a big jump. And if LT overton can work on breaking down better and wrapping up he may least the sec in sacks.

Kevonte henry and Collins are also big additions that no one seems to wanna talk about.

CBS is speculating over $4 million for Beck :

---
Beck will likely require a ground-breaking NIL deal in the portal, perhaps upward of the $4 million Darrian Mensah commanded from Duke.

Cannot imagine budgeting that much for an injured Carson Beck

I would have rather kept Lonergan than get Beck for a year.

Yes, sorry that happened earlier today

How many players are we losing to the NFL or ineligibility?
Not the portal.

Yep. Four million is stupid money.

As to why UGA moved on? My thought is they had already implemented their recruiting/portal NIL budget plan under the assumption Beck would be heading to the NFL, not returning for a final year. Possibly there wasn’t money there to meet his asking price? Plus it seems Stockton is their future. Might alienate him pushing him to the bench for another year, and see him jump in the spring portal.

Not the portal.

Losing to NFL: Moore, Campbell, Booker, K, P, 2 TEs
Gaining from NFL draft: Milroe
Ineligibility: T. Smith

That is not counting walk ons, etc.

They really need to start calling this crapshow something else. It's not college football any longer. It's laughable, and I miss real college football. Oh well, at least some folks are making good money for themselves.

I was thinking it was about 10-12 players. Probably some of the guys that follow recruiting more closely would know.

Nuts

18 years ago, Bama was ridiculed for hiring Nick Saban for $4M per year, which was an astounding amount at the time. Now we are paying college quarterbacks the same amount…

18 years is not THAT long

 

[some_al_fan]

Why people are surprised that Beck is getting $4 million when Ewers is expected to make $6 million?

 

[bamaga]

Room is too crowded. Someone has to go. Maybe Williams, or Mbakwe? Horton seems to have outstayed his welcome.

Thats comedy Gold, too bad others don’t share your sense of humor🤣. I get it, I guess others needed blue font.

i think out DL is in good shape, probably able to get a good rotation . We have lost a lot of talent, but still have a lot of talent. If they ain't wearing Crimson..

This helped Miami’s cause on landing Beck.

That would be lunacy IMO. Do they know if the guy can even throw the ball ?
