Jalen threw 2 INTs in the endzone according to Scott Griffin (@griffsz) on twitter.

I haven't seen that reported anywhere else. Is that true?

Everything sounds encouraging except the turnovers in the redzone. One guy at the scrimmage said Jalen looked sloppy today and that Womack struggled in pass-pro. Hope he gets it cleaned up in the next two weeks. Sure glad to hear we made some FG's today and that our D looks good. Offense has me a little concerned now.

Did you see our RT's in the spring game?

Jalen throwing picks in the redzone is also not ideal, is it?

I think we will pretty fantastic on Offense. I mean we were pretty great last year and this year we should at least be the same if not better.

Saban spoke to us after scrimmage and confirmed Bo is under the weather. He said Ruggs has a chance to make an impact this year as a Returner or WR or both. He also praised Minkah, Harrison, and Evans for their leadership on the defensive side.

ETA: Saban also praised Jeudy and DeVonta Smith. Sounds like we have a solid young receiving corp in addition to the ones already there. He also spoke incredibly well of Ronnie Clark. Said he would excel in anything he chooses to do in life and that he (Saban) would hire him without second thought.

Absent any context, or for that matter even verification, it isn't worth so much as a second thought.

I agree. I know one was the last play of the scrimmage and he threw a red zone int. I like him and the offense trying and learning, and you do that by trial and error.

I know we are still trying to get our RT situation sorted. Anyone with info on that front is greatly appreciated.

That doesn't sound encouraging

Multiple boosters at the scrimmage verified this. Saban basically confirmed it in his presser without calling Jalen out. But yeah, not speculation. Hope it was nothing, but doesn't sound awesome.

I havne't seen Willis play, but Womack just doesn't strike me as athletic enough. Seems big, and somewhat slow of foot.

Right tackle has been a concern for some time now, by many both inside and outside the program. Reports of Womack continuing to get beat off the edge should make you concerned too. That's reality, not pessimism.

That's awesome. Kid has worked his arse off through terrible luck for 5 years. Saban just basically told a bunch of rich white people that they need to hire him if he decides to not follow football. And somebody will.
