Is there a reason that we did not get Carlson or his brother since both parents and grandfather are UA alums?
We offered Daniel a scholarship. Saban offered a a preferred walk-on. Think y'all took Griffith instead. Anders wanted to play with his brother.Is there a reason that we did not get Carlson or his brother since both parents and grandfather are UA alums?

Just goes to show us how inexact the science of recruiting really is.We offered Daniel a scholarship. Saban offered a a preferred walk-on. Think y'all took Griffith instead. Anders wanted to play with his brother.
Yeah, I was basing that claim off of this statement.Griff was already on campus when Carlson was being recruited. Because of that, Carlson was offered a walk-on spot.
As the story goes, Saban extended an offer to Daniel back in 2012 to be a preferred walk-on for the Crimson Tide. Alabama's coach couldn't offer the Alabama legacy a scholarship, though, because it was already taken by current Alabama kicker Adam Griffith. Fate has shined on both kickers.
I knew they were not in the same class. But still, no way to predict AG's consistency struggles vs. Carlson's icewater.Griff was already on campus when Carlson was being recruited. Because of that, Carlson was offered a walk-on spot.
Just hoping Anders lives up to his brother. Big shoes to fill.I knew they were not in the same class. But still, no way to predict AG's consistency struggles vs. Carlson's icewater.
And this is a position where you are put on an island of fail or succeed everytime you are on the field. Much different than almost every other position.
If you don't mind we'll be hoping he can't. :wink:Just hoping Anders lives up to his brother. Big shoes to fill.
Didn't think Arya Stark played football in the SEC...Absolutely no one... :cool2:
Indeed....every team in America would love to have himAuburn's kicker Carlson, and it's not even close
