Will Deonte Brown Start This Week?

Tideflyer · Sep 22, 2019

Does anyone know if he’s been working with the 1s during his exile ?

Tide&True · Sep 22, 2019

Good question. We’ll get a clue from the practice viewing period perhaps.

Actually, I'll be surprised if we do. It's the sort of thing Saban likes to keep under wraps...

I’m going to say he starts. Even if he doesn’t he’ll play. He was probably one of the best road graders we had last year.

Watching CNS over the years, I don’t think he starts, maybe doesn’t even play. He is not returning from an injury. He is eligible again after doing something wrong last year that made himself ineligible. Would have been nice to have him on the line last year during the championship games.

I think he returns. The freshman at LG has really struggled. He is a tackle and has a lot of talent but Brown is needed now.

CajunCrimson · Sep 23, 2019

I’m surprised no one asked him Saturday.

I know things in the running game looked better this week, but would think it’s a good time to really kick it to the next level, with A&M in two weeks. If the throwing game could be actually more deadly, marry it to a good running game.

RollTide_HTTR · Sep 23, 2019

Idk but he'll be the starter by A&M probably.

Padreruf · Sep 23, 2019

He'll get playing time...and be ready for A&M and the remainder of the schedule.

Was Brown able to practice while he was suspended, or is he just starting practice now?

rgw · Sep 24, 2019

I think he practiced and was even with the 1s for parts of the Fall camp. I bet he has been on the practice squad or down the depth chart

seebell · Sep 24, 2019

He won't start but will come in early

TideFan in AU · Sep 24, 2019

You gotta wonder if he hadn’t been suspended would the lineup be Leatherwood, Neal, Dickerson, Brown, and Wills by now. I think that’s really the best 5.

And that may well have been the lineup sooner rather than any later if Brown had paid a bit more attention to his conditioning. At least I got the impression that that was inferred by CNS.

Interesting that Brown was the #2 RG, not LG, in practice today.

He dominated at LG last year, not RG. :conf3:

A quick Google search tells me right guards are more for run blocking than pass blocking versus left guards. Brown was definitely a good run blocker last year.

He won't start but he'll get playing time this week.
