I think the team is experiencing growing pains right now. However, the intensity level has been wratcheted up a notch from past seasons. Once the best lineup is put out there on the floor the SEC can look ouy. I expect a 19 to 21 win season. Any other thoughts?

I know that it's football season but my goodness! We have hired one of the hottest coaches in America and the hoop season is right around the corner and the b-ball team gets no coverage at all. No wonder we struggle to attract top coaches and players at UA! I love Alabama football, but it...

The loss yesterday hurt really bad for all Alabama fans, me included. However, it was the "good kind of hurt" , in that I never expected this team to come this far, this fast. In thinking about the game today, I realized that I had not felt this feeling since December of 2004.... Fans of all...

If I were... If I were an offensive lineman or a wide receiver being recruited by Alabama after watching yesterdays game I would: 1. Wake up in the morning, go to school and speak with my counselor to find out what I needed to do to graduate in December. 2. Tear up all letters received from...

You guys are right! Ken Darby was very, very frustrated with the coaches decisions, or line audibles, whichever the case may be that turned him into a blocker rather than a runner in the second half. A couple of reporters quoted him as saying, "We could have run on them all night!" I think he...

He looked good... JJ really looked good on that play. I wish we could have seen more of similar plays. I think he has a lot of talent and I hope the staff gives him a shot at QB in the fall. based on our o-lines performance yesterday and the increasing speed of defenses, I think all SEC...

His mobility broke our backs. Time after time our linebackers and d-linemen were one step away. The percentages would probably show that nearly forty percent of his completions, including the game winner came on scrambles. In my opinion if there was any other quarterback on the field last...

I noticed a comment made this weekend by Croom that stuck out to me. When asked about the performance of Jimmy Johns against his MSU team on Saturday, Croom commented that, "I told him he would never play quarterback at Alabama". I want to get some opinions from you guys as to what do you...

Thanks! Thanks for defending me! I wasn't trying to take a stab at barnes, or call him an egomaniac. I was really feeling sorry for him because of the fact that last year (only 10 months ago) we were all excited about his interest in our school and about the fact that we were getting a U.S...

I would hope not! That would be about as ill-fated statement as Phil Fulmer stating that he guarantees that he could outrun Keith Brown in a foot race!!! :p

Flash back a year ago.... Alabama was in the mix for a big, strong armed quarterback from California. Do you guys remember Jimmy Barnes? He was an U.S. Army All-America quarterback being talked about nationwide. Remember the jubilation in signing him. I do and I'm sure he does too. Now...

Just Curious How does everyone seem to think that Johns can surpass Upchurch, Sharrief, Coffee, Johns and Darby any faster than he can pass Guillon and JPW? We received superior accolades from all recruiting sources on our class of running backs, above all other positions, didn't we? Now all...

I'll miss the smile that he played with, his ability to take over a game, and the way that he kept his cool in tight situations. I'm glad that we were able to get three years out of him. I wish that we could have received a fourth, but sometimes a man has to do what's best for him. I think...

I agree The current three point line is too close. I think that it takes awayfrom team basketball and encourages quick shots. It is amazing how many times during the course of a game that you a player catch the ball, prepare to pass it to a teammate, only to see that his feet are behind the...

I Actually Like Mark! However, I remember that when he was hired he came to Alabama with a reputation as an up-tempo styled coach whose tema, at least at Murray State, pressed and pushed the ball. I think that Mark is one of the classiest coaches in the SEC and I wouldn't trade him for anyone...

The wonderful thing about this board and others like it, is that everyone can express their opinion. So here is mine! I hope that Tennessee does not go after Mike Anderson. His style of play combined with the athletes that Tennessee has compiled would wreak havoc in the SEC. I was fortunate...

Looking In the Wrong Places to Place Blame I think that the real reason behind the "upset" losses that we are seeing is that a lot of "major" colleges "overcoach" their teams. A clear illustration of that can be seen with the Alabama team. UWM played more people off of their bench than...

J. Johns is the prototype! I am not trying to start anything here, but I do want to make a point from the perspective of a person with pretty good insight into the situation. A lot of people in the African Amercian community are of the opinion that Afrcian American quarterback prospects should...

Brodie Will Be Fine! I am a thirty one year old who had an ACL/MCL reconstructive surgery after my eleventh grade year in high school on my left knee and I had ACL surgery on my right knee as a senior. I've never even had to re-visit a doctor and I've enjoyed an extremely active lifestyle...

There's Still Time to Change Your Mind! How quickly we forget our heroes past successes.... Kennedy won the player of the week award more time last year than and Tide cager in history, as a Sophomore.... I think his performances will improve as the year goes along. He carried us to the...
