    2024 Recruiting: 2025 5* WR Ryan Williams commits

    My take is a little different. I think Bond, Burton, Niblack or Prentice can be elite. We don’t have an elite passer getting them involved and don’t have a lot of faith with Milroe throwing slants or over the middle.

    Game Thread: Alabama-Va Tech (NCAA Tournament Round 1)

    Why is sexton not handling the ball on the last possession? Ingram had committed the terrible turnover on the alley oop attempt on the last possession and then followed it with a worse turnover. He may need to watch the rest of this game.

    Game Thread: Arkansas @ Bama

    This is a situation where the sum of the parts is greater than the whole. It looked like it was coming together 2 wks ago against UT

    Game Thread: Arkansas @ Bama

    There are a lot of times when we don't do much on offense other than dribble around the perimeter seemingly trying to get a matchup. Our spacing is bad and we end up shooting lower percentage shots at the end of the clock. We also have very little desire to rebound. We may back in but this is...

    A Week Away From NSD: How do we stand on 1/31?

    I don’t understand how we can assume anything about this situation other than this kid felt Princeton was a better fit than Alabama. I come from a family were both sets of grandparents, both parents and all siblings went to the university. I never missed a football game growing up but...

    Game Thread: OFFICIAL GAME THREAD - Bama vs. Colorado St. - 1st Half...

    We really need to analyze our approach to coaching DB's on down field/jump ball coverage. I know they're supposed to read the receiver but we have struggled to make plays on the ball for several seasons.

    Game Theead BAMA-Ole Miss game 1

    My concern with firing the guy after 1 year would be that it would likely make hiring a desirable replacement harder. Who wants to leave a job where they are successful (as any potential candidate would be) to go to a place that just lost 20+ conference games, doesn't have a lot of talent and...

    Game Theead BAMA-Ole Miss game 1

    The Goff is a tyrant banter is wearing as this as the lottery talk. There may be advantages that schools like LSU have but there will never be an execuse for the tide to lose to Troy, Samford etc. they are in our state and frankly the only reason why the kids are playing for those schools...

    BJ Emmons Undergoing A Second Surgery Today

    Don't want to speculate on the kids medical problems but typically Lis Franc fractures are treated with screws to maintain a normal relationship while the injured bone/ligament heals. Its not uncommon to take the screws out with a second surgery 3 months later so they don't break when he starts...

    Military Academy Recruiting?

    The rules for the academies are a little different. Everyone there gets full tuition, room, board and a small monthly stipend. The numbers are also skewed because of the prep schools. Candidates that are academically marginal (primarily athletes and prior service) go to USMA prep school for a...

    ATH Demetris Robertson Updates (Former 'Bama Commit)

    The great thing about starting out with an MBA is that your salary improves and you have a lot less chance of going broke than a football player or having brain damage for that matter. Your argument seems to miss the fact that the vast majority of millionaires never made a dime playing a sport...

    ATH Demetris Robertson Updates (Former 'Bama Commit)

    That's not true. His best chance at being a millionaire if he is bright enough to get into a Stanford or ND is to study hard and go to med school and sub specialize after residency. The average NFL career is probably around 2 yrs at the league minimum. He could make the league minimum as a...

    Post season thread...

    After we went to Xavier and got hammered I got the feeling this wasn't our year. I tried to tune out basketball this year but have watched most of the games. As a program we have no identity. We waste time on offense dribbling around, often times have to throw up shots at the end of the shot...

    They lost their last 2 games to UTEP and Long Beach State. Both were at home.

    Game Thread: Alabama vs. Xavier

    Xavier is not very good this yr. I would say if this holds up it's going to be a rough yr.

    Question: Who thought Sylve had an int?

    It looked like Sylve had it and was out of bounds. The real discussion is the improvement Sylve showed from game 1 last night and if he is the answer as the starter going forward? Coming out of Ms State I thought our secondary had improved. Coming out of WCU I thought E. Jackson was our best...

    The same can be said about actual crimes and alleged crimes.

    Link: D.J. Pettway story of returning to Alabama.

    While rape and assault are very different crimes one was allegedly investigated and no charges were brought and the other pled guilty to a crime. In light of that it seems a little ridiculous that some of the same people criticzing Jimbo Fisher for his handling of Winston will blindly trust...

    Link: D.J. Pettway story of returning to Alabama.

    These kind of brutal assaults and people who carry them out have no place on a college campus. As far as I'm concerned we have no room to criticize FSU (re: Jameis Winston) because we've abandoned the moral high ground on this issue. I'm not sure what world most people live in but second chances...

    Game Thread: Bama vs. Kennesaw State (Regional Championship)

    KSU has always been a power player in lower divisions but ask yourself this question, Do you think anyone on KSU's team would have gone there if Alabama or any other SEC program had offered? The answer in all likelihood is no. The same holds true for Troy last year. We are failing to either...
