Although, I believe that some are out recruiting for Alabama.
Maybe their actual "employment" is contingent upon how well they work during this recruiting period? I mean, I'm not saying they aren't getting paid, getting Bama swag to wear out while recruiting, but there is "hired by Alabama", and the official announcement of being "hired by Alabama". Call it a probation period, if you like. Just a thought. Doesn't count for much.

More along the lines of "Saban hasn't told Ellis Ponder to release the announcement."

You really think Saban is going to "hire" someone and then dump them after signing day? SMH...

Not saying anything about Cochran going rogue just that we seem to have had more injuries over the last couple of years. We could just assume that it is merely bad luck and maybe that is the case.I just think it would be wise to review those workouts to see if maybe some are putting too much stress on the players' joints.
It’s not the workouts. It may be bad form but never the exercise. I’m certain they teach and monitor the players on proper form.

Exercise and workouts can cause injuries.Training errors due to poor technique can cause injuries. Also, they can occur when you take on too much physical activity too quickly. Exercising for too long or doing too much of one type of activity can lead to strain on the muscles and joints. I am not saying that is the problem with some of our injuries, but it would not hurt to review our training program.

On the defensive side, who do we definitely have, and who are the most likely maybes?
Or maybe even complete run down from somebody who's where stand now (at least we know it) for us werking stiffs!;)

I saw where we supposed to be getting a WR coach from VT and I saw a post earlier about Coach Cool that got closed.

What's latest on everything?

Injuries happen just playing football, it’s a rough sport.

I think we’ve reached a point where the muscle is stronger than the ligaments and tendons holding them to the bone. I don’t think fitness has reached a point where we can strengthen the connective tissue as much as we’ve been able to strengthen the muscles.

True. Connective tissue doesn't have much blood supply, which limits the training effect...
