Now that the season is over, any rumors or grumblings on any potential transfers?

frick that! Dieter didn't live up to his billing. As someone said, there was a reason he was at Bowling Green. I'd rather spend that scholly on a playmaker.

Bullshite. Dieter was a fantastic blocker all season, maybe an even better blocker than ArDarius (and that's saying something).

He was a huge part of this team.

Kudos to him as a blocker. Glad he did that part of his job well. But his primary purpose is to get open and catch passes. When Bama needs a blocker at WR, we can split Jonah Williams out wide. Otherwise, we need WRs who catch passes first and block second.

That would hurt. That guy always looked like a great receiver. Unfortunately our coaches thought that stone hands Dieter would be a better starter

I think our coaches would disagree with this

He was the best blocking receiver we had.

Okay, but do you even remember Mullaney?

I could see Faulkins and Foster both leaving. Also has Matt Womack been making any strides to see the field?

Bama must make room for this years recruiting class.Assuming 85 on scholly now( may be 84 ),16 seniors 2 transfers, Robinson to NFL. That means 19 open spots.
I think the following guys will not be back either by transfer, medical scholly, or graduate and move on from football.
Dwight, Falkins,Ro. Foster, Clark, OJ Smith,McMillion,Wallace. Now we are at 26 openings.
Of course Humphrey or Stewart to NFL can change this.

We know David Cornwell and Cooper Bateman are leaving as graduate transfers. I expect Raheem Falkins and Robert Foster to do the same.

Other players that might transfer
Joshua McMillon
Johnny Dwight
JC Hassenauer
BJ Emmons

Emmons not going anywhere just because he got injured

Probably going to look at being 4th on the depth chart right now, possibly 5th if Harris is as good as advertised.

He will get buried in the depth chart.. I could see us losing 2 running backs unfortunately. That's the one bad thing about 5 and 4 star players. They want to play and only one football.

So every time we run to the edge we should put a tackle at wide receiver? Also, don't you think that'd be a pretty clear key to the defense if it was a screen play?
