re: Tide Football Thread in honor of TidalSurge

I'm not as intrigued by this name...

I think what's intriguing (if it's true Saban is interested) is that by all reports, Saban really wanted Grubb, so maybe he's hoping some of that Grubb-ness has rubbed off on Shepard?

If you can't get Grubb, maybe this is the next best thing in order to introduce some of the DeBoer/Grubb concepts into our offense?

I'd like to see how our offense would do without a starting a freshman LT, a center that can't snap the ball, an entire re-worked line, a first year starter, and a brand new OC.

Then maybe we can properly assess our offensive coordinator.

I've said this before and I'll die on this hill. The 2023 team overachieved as this should have been a "re-build" year.

2022 squad completely shite the bed and on paper/talent should have won the national championship walking away. That is going to be the one team in Saban's era we are going to look back and say what the frick.

What happened to tidal?

How did I miss this?

Happy for him but I hope his replacement is way better

Burton to the NFL

Happy for Burton. Hopefully he kills it during NFL workouts.

I’m honestly glad he’s going pro and not trying to transfer again with his Covid year. Hate seeing guys finish at other schools. Sort of like JQ in hoops. Hate seeing him finish at Memphis. He’s a Bama guy.

Updated. Zay Mincey listed at CB according to On3 and I assume that’s where we want him.

I have to wonder if we are planning to look at another one or two offensive linemen in the portal. Will be interesting to see if we add someone after spring practice.

I have to say that Ty Simpson coming back and not transferring helps our cause. Another quarterback competition is on the horizon.
