NCAA Portal Talk

[XTS2]

Saw somewhere today that Jaylen Moody is withdrawing from the Portal and staying at Bama. Has anyone else seen this? Not wanting to start a rumor...just cannot remember where I read it...really tired and getting old...LOL.

Nope you are right. And Jaylen Moody will be old too lol Will be his 5th season getting playing time for the Tide

 

[RTR2u]

That was because of complacency. Jawja will experience that this next season...

It’s gonna be a hoot to watch, too!

It’s gonna be a hoot to watch, too!

It will be interesting to see Bennett "prove" he is the best qb without the supporting cast he had

2010 was his last year and it was one of the most loaded teams we had but we wound up with 3 losses.

Probably Saban's most talented team overall

Jaylen Moody is rejoining Bama. So there’s your experienced ILB to compete with the Uber talented young players.

This is what I hoped would happen when Harris announced. Moody is better than Harris and knows your system.

THIS PLEASES ME GREATLY!!!!!

 

[CajunCrimson]

Thanks - so the 2011 team had no WRs who anyone would remotely consider to be a dominant guy, much less an Alpha. But that really was a different era in college football. It all started to change in 2012.

Didn’t need one with that D.

That is extremely good news! I wonder if this was another bit of Coach Saban recruiting magic.

Moody is a huge get/retention!

Let's Roll, Tide!

Likely combinqtion of
brooks hall Holden and jojo.

Big competition there coming this spring.

If hall can get more consistent with his hands he will be great. I love Holden and hate that he didn't get more involved this year when meychie went out.

Also keep an eye on leary.

And any of the incoming freshmen have a shot at cracking the 2 deep. I think shazz and Anderson are the most ready to play quickly.

If I was a brand new, incoming WR, the very first thing I`d try to do is throw the best downfield block anybody`s ever seen.

B10Tide, I'd read the board for years prior to posting, and I have a very high regard for you as a poster. You think Moody is better than Harris, a three-year starter? Would you elaborate? For the record, I work in Jaylen Moody's hometown, so if he has a breakout year, I would be thrilled.

Not sure id go as far as moody>Harris but its great to have him coming back. Moody was good enough to start this year.

Would not doubt it………. It’s excellent news

I’ve always felt like Moody was the more physical of the inside guys we had over the last couple of years. I’m glad he is back.

Harris is better at getting after the QB, but that is not a focus of the ILB. Moody is better in coverage, and Moody is not as tentative. He makes a decision and GOES. Now, that means that when he is wrong, he is more wrong than Harris was, but he has been in this system forever, so he is not wrong very often.

At ILB, you need to play with confidence, and you need to be able to turn your hips and run with a RB or TE. Moody has those things in spades.

Most likely this was a situation where the police had someone pulled over on the shoulder and Billingsley didn’t “shift over” and leave the lane open next to emergency vehicle.

Years ago Georgia had this “yield the lane to the emergency vehicle” law in before it was passed in Alabama. I was riding to a meeting in Atlanta with a colleague and he got tagged for “failure to yield”.

Saying he “wasn’t aware” of the Georgia law got him absolutely nowhere.

 

[Rush]

Super pumped about this!

Have always quietly pulled for Moody.

And had a deep respect for his biding his time...

Generally speaking, when he got some playing time, he was better than solid.

Welcome back!
