In the spirit of JustNeedMe8’s timely post…then there is this:

https://gradtransfertracker.com/potential-transfers/

…any chance that Kayton Samuels, Kenny Bigelow, Ryan Fines, Pete Mokwuah, Marcus Griffin, Preston Gordon, Sean Adesanya, Brandon Tiassum, Jabril Robinson, Dylan Thompson, Sterling Johnson or any other D Lineman would like to compete for a Natty next year and possibly get recruited to the League?

There appears to be 3 or 4 DL that may be able to meaningful contribute.
What would the college football world say if Nick brought in 4 D Line Grad Transfers from the likes of Clemson, Ohio State, Illinois, etc and won another Natty back to back?

There would be an immediate call to rescind the grad transfer rule, but it would be a hoot!

There's been some talk of a grad transfer QB. Saban all but said Alabama's getting a QB in his presser but couldn't "talk about it just yet."

Not sure why a grad transfer QB would come to Alabama with Jalen and Tua on the roster. But you never know what Saban might pull off.

maybe a guy who knows he's not likely going on to the league, but wants a future in coaching and has the ability to be a reliable backup in a pinch. Where could a kid learn more about coaching than from Saban?

I get that, but I wouldn't give someone like that a scholarship. Save them for next year.

If it's a grad transfer with only one year left, we aren't losing anything. Or it could be a situation where the guy walks-on like the kicker from Temple.

Maybe one that knows his future is not playing football but wants to get into coaching. See how the program works, have it for a resume, having CNS as a reference would carry weight in any industry but an endorsement in football IQ, tape breakdown, etc. would be invaluable.
