Whisky is continuing to up recruiting south of the Mason Dixon line... one more from Alabama...and a good one for Wisconsin.

This gray-shirt freshman is a very good LB prospect, good character and work ethic. He just saw that it was going to be difficult to fight his way up a LB ladder filled with 5-stars at Alabama.

"It didn't take Christian Bell long to find a new school.

The former Alabama linebacker announced Thursday that he is transferring to Wisconsin.

The ex-Hoover High School standout announced his plan to leave the Tide and transfer on Sunday"

Bama is so loaded with talent a very good player could spend his entire career riding the bench hoping to get on the field during garbage time. Smart move to transfer where he can get some quality time.

Interesting. Probably talked into it by his buddy Bradrick Shaw, a RB from Hoover who signed with Wisconsin from the same class as Bell.
If Darrell Williams wasn't going to get plenty of playing time for AU this year they'd probably be on him too.

If Hand isn't a starter yet, you should know that it is hard to see the field at Bama

It was dumb for him to accept a grayshirt offer at Alabama in the first place since he could have gone to many other major programs. A grayshirt offer from any school is code word for "we don't really want you anymore and wish you would just de-commit because we have better players at your position, but we don't want to look bad by pulling our offer." Hopefully someone explained that to this kid, and if he made the choice to come anyways then now he is seeing why people told him this.
