The balance of power has shifted. The SEC is no longer the "toughest" conference. We're solid but not the best.

But they've only had like 6-8 leave, at least the last time I checked.

It probably means he's transferring. Ty left and it's likely he wants more money and more of a guarantee he'll have quarterback who is capable of getting him the ball and not turning into Jackson Arnold.

Cignetti was a part of Saban's first round of great assistants that help build the monster that was the Alabama dynasty. The guy knows what he's doing and is smarter than the overwhelming majority of coaches he's coaching against. He has an eye for hidden talent and has the motiviational acumen...

And this is what D-1 baseball teams are doing. They are going to older rosters because a player in his second, third or fourth year is light years stronger and more mature than an incoming freshman. If we're going to stay competitive in football, we're going to have to start moving more toward...

Here's the problem and it stems from the transfer portal. Can we really afford to have an 8-4/7-5 season without having massive transfers out after the season because of the optics of "Bama is on the decline"? Remember, there is no patience not only at Alabama but with the individual players...

Ty's accuracy didn't start taking a hit until after he got injured. Before the injury and before the OL started falling apart, he had over a 70% completion %.. It wasn't until his injuries and the line started declining that his accuracy took a hit. Russell's ceiling isn't so high that he can...

You want me to tell you why I don't believe that? Because neither QB behind him was even close to being where Ty was in his development. To "encourage" the most developed QB you have to "move on" and hope that the two behind him develop enough to just get to the place Ty was, is idiotic. If the...

I think we start seeing in football what's been happening in college baseball. The big D-1 schools are giving less and less scholarships to HS kids and giving more and more to transfers. More roster spots are being taken up by transfers than HS recruits. It sucks for the HS recruit because a lot...

If he doesn't gain weight and/or get alot stronger, this is going to get him in and OUT of the NFL pretty quickly. For his size and strength he did AN EXCELLENT JOB at center. But the problem was he couldn't move anybody and the best he could do was keep them where they started, which was right...

He probably just finished throwing up to even make comments.

I'm sure the very weak QB class coming out had a lot to do with him still getting a first round grade. Most of the former NFL quarterback and player analysts said he needed another year of college football. I think he needs another year of starting in college, but obviously he and his family...

I have no idea how teams can build defensive lines through recruiting anymore. Once they get on the verge of breaking out they're in portal and either asking for more money or looking to go somewhere else for more money. Unreal.

This sound like someone familiar

Maybe we should be bringing some of their OL'men over, or the OL coach! LOL!

Also might mean he and his agent are looking for more money, either from Alabama or someone else. So my guess is Alabama and Russaw might be at the negotiating table and he could return.

Yes, a lot of the players are contacted before they enter the portal. It's wrong but so is running a stop sign and not paying taxes.

Which is why Indiana and him will flourish in the new landscape. They may be the new Big 10 king before it is all said and done.

The absolute worst thing DeBoer can do is not make a change at OL coach. His offseason is already going to be filled with outside questions and pressure, if he keeps the OL coach he wont be able to go to the bathroom in peace.

The transfer portal has allowed teams to not have to wait three and four years to rebuild. Curt Cignetti rebuilt Indiana into a championship team in less than two. Also, there are signs that there are foundational problems with DeBoer's culture. We've had too many games in the past two years...
