Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
Yeah, possibly some family issues to take care of..................hopefully he gets what ever it is squared away
Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
I wonder if he was being pressured by family to transfer closer to home, say to MD and Coach Locksley?
Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
Hopefully we don't lose him. He's slated to be a big time player for us soon - most likely starting next year..

Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
I don't think he will...............from all I have heard he is solid Bama.............
Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
Possible. I guess it's all speculation right now. Whatever it is or was, I hope all is well with him.
Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
Bright, bright future....Hope the best for him and hope Bama is a part of that future.

Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
One recruiting class will not change Maryland much. Need 3-4 years of recruiting to rebuild roster. He would be dumb to go...
Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
Can’t lose another LB. really like his quickness and athleticism. He’s got stud written all over him so I hope he gets back in the saddle soon. Crazy how many snaps Mack and Dylan have handled this year!

Don't like the sound of this.
Right, he's slated to be a star next year. Just hope it's nothing serious.

He reminds me of Rashan Evans when he was a freshman. He just needs to add some weight to handle the big O-lineman that are blocking him.

Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
I'm not sure he'll start next year, which is probably why he's frustrated looking at who he is behind in practice. Jennings and Lewis will likely both be back next year at JACK. SAM has an opening to be filled, so perhaps someone slides in there. Right now, Anoma is just an edge rusher, not polished or strong enough (yet) to play every down, especially against the run.

Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
He would be one injury from a starting job, and he is already getting snaps. I doubt that this is what he is dealing with.
Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
The thing is... Bama has numerous examples of guys on defense waiting their turn and ending up 1st round picks. No reason for a guy to leave due to playing time and not wanting to wait in and of itself.

Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
Just listened to the Capstone Report guy (Martin Houston) on 102.9, apparently he was recruited by Coach Lock and there was some discussion about being distracted and/or maybe wanting to follow Lock north, but the thinking appears to be he will stay put.

Re: Anoma not at Practice Today
I do understand he's a long way from home and at his age that's a big deal. Growing up can be painful at times. Normally the good moments far outweigh the bad though.
When it comes to OLB the term starting isn't so meaningful as snap count. Saban has shown that he will play all players "who are ready". In this case Jennings in my opinion is not a rush type end but more of a run stopper who occasionally crashes the pocket. Lewis has yet to show he can play 3 games without season ending injury and Chris Allen is coming off season-ender as well. So in my opinion if he works hard to prepare he's either going to start or get a very high snap count.
