Here's the kickoff press conference from Coach Saban:
Highlights:
- "This is one of the best conditioned teams coming out of the Summer" (Rest of the conference: :eek2
- Reinforcing team-first attitude
- Did not offer Zach Smith a job in Jan 2018 (ESPN clickbait'd something about this yesterday)
- Terrell Lewis athletic metrics are above the levels they were two years prior (pre-injuries)
- Confident in 3 OLBs; says young guys may be able to contribute too
- Pleased with new staff; mentions Sark specifically
- Some journalist used some inside football lingo (10 personnel...4 WR and 1 back) and Saban kinda patronized him LOL
- At any rate, Saban said we'd still use tight ends; like what they do for the multiples and we have good TEs
- Alabama doesn't use the numbers like the NFL; they color-code personnel
- Anoma was dismissed from school and that's all he can say about it (FERPA)
- Syhiem Carter has played every [DB] position here; one of the most knowledgable players (watch out for him this year)
- Dickerson (FSU OL grad transfer) big, strong and experienced; don't know where he fits (sounds like an OG to me)
