This is all too much good stuff. I will park my expectation at Nelson returns, Sears leaves and we don't get Cliff for the time being. This is still Alabama basketball and while we've thrown that demon in a cage he's a crafty asshole.
I've officially switched gears to full fledged denial. I now will be disappointed if any of that happens and we don't win the championship.
So Cliff is both following white Bama womenz on the gram AND reveling in Milo's? Nick stamp that shite.
Just think if we could win a natty in bball we could use all the money from that to pump more into the football program.
Yeah Jalen was still playing shortstop for the spring game. We’ve had some horrible missed evals at the center position. Guys feel overmatched and slow and struggle snapping bc they’re worried about getting beat
2021.... 15 of 27 signees transferred. Four of the signees who remained have a chance to get drafted in first round on Thursday: Dallas Turner, Kool-Aid, JC Latham, Terrion Arnold. The remaining 8 players: QB Jalen Milroe, TE Robbie Outz, OL Jaeden Roberts, DL Damon Payne, DL Tim Keenan, Wolf Keanu Koht, LB Deontae Lawson and DB DeVonta Smith. Classes like these, led more to the decline than anything else
When you compare it to 8-9 1st rounders in the 2017 class, with 8 other starters/contributors, there’s no comparison
Yea every class can't be the GOAT class. 4 first rounders and 8 other solid players is still a very very good class. The downfall was 2 bad coordinators for a few years and then a center that couldn't snap the ball imo.
The coordinators helped, but we started having a lot of mis evaluations, and or losing guys elsewhere
Agree, mainly at WR. Overall I stand by four 1st round picks and 8 more starters is still a damn good class. Portal cost us depth but everyone deals with that now.
Looking over mock drafts, we had Maye committed at one point, and could have had Brian Thomas but we passed, how much better do you think we would’ve been with both?
Not sure what your point is? If you're saying the downfall is bc every class wasn't 2017, well yea but we won a lot of titles without 2017 level classes too. 2017 isn't happening often, if ever, again. The 2021 class was a great class.
Processing fratty white OL in year 1. Saban didn't get to that with Tyler Love until later. I think CDB is ahead of the curve.
