Couldn't have said it better myself......

Obviously, the biggest concern this time of year is staying injury free. I've already read about 2 pretty big injuries at LSU and Clemson. Hope all our guys stay healthy..

Roster updated with the early enrollees here: http://alabama.247sports.com/Bolt/Numbers-UAs-early-enrollees-will-wear-this-spring-44186510

Interesting that Jennings is listed as an LB and is 10Lbs heavier than when was being recruited. I thought we had him slated as a safety type. If he stays at LB, it looks like the 16 class will be missing a safety unless a CB ends up sliding over so I'd think that'll be a big priority for the 17 class.

Got to wonder if that is just a typo from his brother being an OLB. Anfernee is the only one listed as "OLB." Everyone else just has the "LB" designation.

could be. big brother was listed that way last year which was odd - I kinda thought it was because he was geting pretty close to DE size. If it is a typo on position, he'd be the biggest S by 10 pounds also. I know with Ronnie Clark they told him to stay at S they wanted him around 220 or less and him gaining the additional muscle is why he's over at RB now. Could be the new paradigm is a smaller body type for S and the bigger guys will end up at LB or elsewhere.


Another note. Williams is only 280, so I'd pick him for a redshirt at this point unless the goes crazy over the summer

Dang at the numerous injuries keeping big time players out of Spring practice....

 

[uafanataum]

Why is Tony Brown still facing some suspensions? I thought the National championship would be enough.

The only thing I can say is better spring than season. It is hard to read.
