The 3-Man Front folks on WJOX talked with Mike Rodak, the beat reporter for 247, earlier today. A few tidbits:
- He expects all four quarterbacks to stay at Alabama.
- Said anywhere from three to eight players could portal out, but didn't name anybody specifically (although he alluded to Tony Mitchell as one)
- Expects Alabama to look for cornerback help / depth in the portal, along with a DL and possibly an edge rusher
I don't think he said this specifically (although he might've), but later in the show the hosts were hinting pretty heavily that Alabama was looking at multiple players from a variety of Big 10 schools as portal additions. They said "several" Big 10 coaches are nervous that Alabama will come after high-profile players from their schools, offering large NIL packages.
I don't know if that's in response to the raiding that went on by OSU and others after Saban retired, or if the new staff has identified key players to target based on specific needs, but Alabama's intentions are apparently an open secret among Big 10 coaches.

I can't believe they don't list o-line as possibilities. Especially if Brailsford is not around.

Sounds like Courtney Morgan is using his connections in B1G country. Excited to see how this all shakes out.

This post sounds aggressive. As though Alabama is still a monster roaming the countryside.
Nice.
