    Mac and Cube: Alabama was the "absorber".

    Weird thing two of the best performing players we have are players that came from Washington. Yet it seemed the Alabama players, even those he recruited have all taken a step backwards.

    FSU changing turf before game ?

    Not sure how good their OL is but Roydell Williams is a tough experience back and we have two guys who have barely seen the field. That doesn't mean much until feet hit the turf but I hope the field doesn't become States 13th man.

    Video: Pate with Scrimmage intel

    I recall early on Saban saying Ty was struggling to keep his emotions in check. When things would go wrong he would press and not do what he was supposed to do. It sounded like a maturity thing to me. But he was a kid, so that's not really unexpected. If he's grown into the job then I...

    Jam Miller reportedly suffers upper body injury; could miss multiple games

    No way to color this as anything but bad news, but it's a long season and younger players are going to get needed experience, hopefully experience on the winning side. If he can get back at some point it will make us that much better having survived the experience. Or our lack of run game...

    Question: What's your minimal expectations for Bama this year?

    As long as we make the playoff and don't face plant when we get there.

    Ty Simpson named starter for FSU game

    I think it's a tough deal because sometimes choosing the right player means you might lose games early but if you don't choose the right players you will absolutely not win games late. To me, I want to put the best players on the field and give them the chance to win. and by best I don't mean...

    Ty Simpson named starter for FSU game

    Even if Milro didn't have such a bad year down the stretch, (which he did and it was awful). He just doesn't fit the offense they want to run. They know that the record last year was not good enough to keep their jobs, especially including the Oklahoma loss (not just that we lost but how...

    Ty Simpson named starter for FSU game

    I have little to no doubts Ty can run the offense and even be exceptional once he gets a little experience. My greatest fear is that he will let his desire to succeed push him on plays that he needs to just throw away and end up getting hurt. As much as I hate seeing a play go for nothing I've...

    Norvell closing F$U practices

    That sort of misdirection was especially problematic for a Nick Saban defense which is predicated on everyone doing a specific job, it was especially problematic early in the season. The Swarm defense is a little simpler to execute and puts a premium on reaction and pursuit. I'm not saying...

    What News Do You Want to Hear Coming Out of Fall Camp???

    It's not that I don't want to hear anything from the players, it's just that there is no real reason for them to be mouthy. The last time they were on the field they got humiliated by a team full of 2's. Alabama as a program is not coming from the top looking down, they are down looking up...

    Confident QB play vs Not confident QB play

    Offense is sort of like a v8 engine. when all 8 cylinders are firing and producing it's amazing but you get one or two of those with an issue and it causes a cascade of problems. You still have 6 working but they can't overcome the issue. Last year Milro was not the only problem but he was...

    Deion says salary cap needed ... and I agree

    The only reasonable control that might work would be to make two changes. One, put a monetary cap on players by position. Obviously a QB would have a higher cap than a safety. Secondly I believe the player should have to sign a contract. At least 2 years in length. After that they can do...

    FSU QB Thomas Castellanos calls out Bama: "They don't have Nick Saban to save them. I just don't see them stopping me."

    While I think it's a bad idea to give out bulletin board material to the apposing team, and while I am not sure if Florida State has the talent to beat us, I do believe that the film from last year showed absolutely nothing to scare anybody. Even when we won the other teams were playing with...

    BREAKING House Versus NCAA Settlement Reached

    Correct me if I'm wrong but this salary for the players thing has nothing to do with NIL agreements does it? They can still negotiate whatever they want with whoever they want correct? It just means they could do nothing beyond be on the team and get a paycheck. since the cap is for the...

    Crime Blotter: Florida CB Dijon Johnson faces four charges after gun/drugs/driving arrest

    Accountability is gone. These guys would make great politicians when their playing days are over.
