    What am I missing about the Ok State plane crash?

    It should have never been brought up. That being said, there its no telling how death effects any individual. Especially at that age, when you have a feeling of invincibility and mortality is a removed concept. Who knows? Maybe they were scheduled to fly out of Aames and were distracted by that...

    2011 DT Delvon Simmons received a release from UNC and signed with Texas Tech

    Re: 11 DT Delvon Simmons is asking for release from UNC and Bama rumored to be his ch It is my understanding that he has no more official visits and an unofficial visit is unlikely at this time. So the front runners to obtain his signature are schools he has already visited, such as Texas Tech...

    Link: LB Chris Landrum commits to Auburn

    As a complete aside, I pulled a Region on my family yesterday. Before church I told them we would go out to Friday's afterwards but when I got in the car I just drove to Chili's instead. And, although the reference would go over her head, my wife pulls a Region all the time. Of course, she...

    Link: C Reese Dismukes committed to Auburn

    Not all recruits are equal. Would you recruit an Aaron Johns the same way you recruit a Trent Richardson? Spencer Region is closer to the former than the latter in that analogy. Alabama put conditions on him in an effort to manage its resources. SR was not a high enough recruit to warrant...

    Food and Football for Oct 10th

    Well with a great weekend of football (SEC football – the national match-ups stink) I have decided to plan my menu of food and football. Something had to give between getting the perfect compliment of food for a game and my cholesterol, so I have rescheduled my internist for...

    Food and football for Oct 4th games

    I posted this on another site and I thought I would post it here for giggles and grins as well. I thought I would have some fun and preview the games on TV this weekend with some food choices to go along with them. Just a quick disclaimer: I nor the AMA endorse the sedentary gluttony...

    Link: Update: OT Jawuan James Commits To Tennessee

    Re: Juwuan James de-commited Having a camera stuck in your face and being put on the spot really is difficult and not fair. Reference our own coach and the Miami Dolphins to see how uncomfortable it can be. Doesn't make it right, but perhaps we should know not to take things at face value. I...

    Question: Our "Wild Elephant" Package?

    I won't defend our execution last night, but those who think this is a finesse package are way off base. Conceptually it is very cool. Not sure if everybody realizes this, but the first part of this package is to run an unbalanced line. They do this by bringing James Carpenter over to the right...

    Link: The decline of Steve Spurrier

    Two words really capture the demise of Steve Spurrier's domination : zone blitz. As the principles of the zone blitz filtered into college ball, Spurrier's offense became less and less effective.

    Link: Rivals.com 2010 Alabama state ranking

    To me the reasoning for certain rankings are just so inconsistent, which leads to the complaints and frustration. Compare the situations of Blake Sims and Sam Gibson. My understanding for Sims lower than hoped for rating (a guy that the home state school was high on at one time) was his...

    D.J. Howard Commits to Auburn

    I am providing a link to a premium BOL article which has the magic bullet to end the argument in your favor. To quickly sum up a couple of highpoints, Howard says an offer from Alabama would be big because it would mean he gets to play big time SEC football (what exactly is your commit sayin'...

    Question: James Carmon

    Not completely sure we have to this year. I think it is a luxury if we find the right guy. Keep in mind we signed Bonds, Moore and Sentimore last year. I think at least 1 if not 2 of those guys project on the inside. Plus we have Damion Square coming off a redshirt and Marcel Dareus able to...

    Question: James Carmon

    I am still not sure why would we pursue Carmon. Signing him puts him in the same class as Chapman (I think). So we would not gain much unless we were unhappy with Chapman. I don't think that is the case. Furthermore, it would slow the expected progression of Kerry Murphy. Also if we did sign him...

    ***Here's the big one: Final Recruiting Update for the Class of '09***

    I think some information from Darren Myles recruitment needs to be said because UT is not coming from nowhere as it would seem. Darren Myles' father is a coach. Two of his former players are Jamal Lewis and Inky Johnson, both former UT players. So he has attended UT practices in the past with...
