I think Finebaum had a sports architect on last week who said something to the effect that proper social distancing would mean a stadium at around 20% capacity. I've heard a lot of talk on WJOX to suggest we might just have a SEC season.

Hard to imagine they'll get paid enough to stop the bag men that every school has - search the SBNation piece on this from a few years back. I think top shelf players - Tua, Jalen, Cam, Tebow - will do fine. Lot of important five-star players won't. Only so many jerseys to buy and autographs...

Yes, Dabo was doing commercial real estate for a bit when he was out of coaching. Now why would a promising young coach get out of the profession for just a couple of years, especially after serving on a staff that got hit hard by the NCAA? What motivation might he have? Or better put - no...

For those of you wanting to keep giving Dabo a break, and bearing in mind that every school has bag men (sort of), ask yourself why such a promising young coach was out of coaching for...what was it? Two years? ... and selling commercial real estate.

MOAN's post also ignores that in many states, the politicians are defaulting towards opening up, anyway, regardless of what medical experts seem to think.

Boredom isn't the issue. I get it - we're all bored. The problem is that as soon as you start asking players to do something different from regular students on the scope of living on campus when no one else is allowed on campus in order to take online classes and play ball while everyone else...

If a campus - such as mine - is online only, you can't demand that players return to campus to compete. It won't hold up - the liability too great, and it destroys whatever shred of amateurism remains. Agree with B1G here. We simply cannot assume that the markets are going to be in place for...

If students aren't on campus for class, you cant have ball. Simple as that.

Neither Tua nor Lia are "their own man" - Galu still leads the family, and his judgment, for better or worse, will hold as much sway as anything else.

FWIW, and I realize a lot of y'all don't trust the media, but Aaron Suttles commented today that of the four guys in the QB room - Young included - he would expect Lia to be the first to leave.

No real intel here, but I'd wager that Lia isn't on the roster when fall camp starts. I suppose Townsend will learn the QB playbook, too.

Exactly - it wasn't the reason we lost, but it was the difference in the game.

I'm not a fan of players skipping the bowl game, but it is what it is, so I won't yell at clouds too much. That said, there have been meaningless bowl games for fifty years. Just ask Auburn about the Peach Bowl. The games have been exhibitions for a long time. We've known which games would...

It's probably correct to note that we got caught flat footed, but Saban is still right to be irked. Instead of playing the game straight up, Gus wanted to dance around do some junior high school lot subterfuge. It's infuriating.

Doomed? We lost three games in two seasons, and almost every loss was predicated upon defensive failures.

The 2010 Capital One Bowl was meaningless, too, but Mark Ingram and Julio Jones played like demons.

Comparing AJ to Greg is silly. Greg could never have done what AJ did to Auburn or TAMU.

I'm not convinced that our scheme is the problem, though sometimes we would do well to just cut our guys loose. I can't ignore the injuries, the early departures, and the coaching turnover. Part of what makes the best defenses what they are right now is a very stable coaching staff. We've not...

Almost any team is going to be very, very dependent on their quarterback. No shame in that.
