NCAA Portal Talk

[B1GTide]

Alabama got the best RB, WR and DB in the portal. Add keeping Moody and Saban is the portal king again.

Billingsley out, Burton in. I'd say we came out ahead in that exchange....

Technically Baker out, Burton in, considering they are also looking for a TE. But nice pickup!

Soft hands.

Watching Burton. He attacks the ball. He doesn’t wait for it. Very “Smitty” in that regard.

looks to have more reliable hands then Metchie. Hope he has the heart though.

Hard to say from that footage.

My brother talked to him at the basketball game and asked him if he wanted to win 2 titles in a row…

Mike (my brother) says you’re welcome…

 

[GP for Bama]

I am very glad that Burton is coming to Bama. He is a great player. However... It seems a little strange. Why did he want to leave UGA? He was playing a lot and they just won a national championship. Just curious.

He knows UGA is losing A LOT, and Bennett is still Bennett. Young can get Burton drafted.

True, but, as stated earlier in the thread, I've watched some of Coach P's breakdown and Billingsley's lack of effort was appalling. Glad he's Sark's headache now....

Probably wont get targeted as much at UGA.............

Because Maurice Smith is why. This is Kirby's game but Saban is just better at it.

Slade Bolden was our # 3 WR with 42 receptions with 408 yards and 3 TD’s.

Burton was #1 for UGA with 26 receptions with 497 yards and 5 TD’s.

Pretty clear even if you are the number 3 option at Alabama you get to eat too.

Now, could he bring that TE, #19, with him.

Oh I'm not arguing about Billingsley. Just saying they play different positions.

I gotcha, was just acknowledging my comparison wasn't WR to WR. All good.
