When you can't talk any shite about a college team dog the pro players that aren't even on campus anymore. An if you're just pissed about Ingram, blame the Saints shitty organization for picking him in thr first round.

Saban does more with less talent than anyone in the history of college football as shown by how crappy the players are in the NFL. Saban is clearly the greatest coach of all time.

According to college recruiting rankings (Scout, Rivals, ESPN, etc.) this is absolutely false. Saban consistently pulls in the best high school talent every year. He has the most talent in the SEC, if not the country, to develop.

Wrong. Alabama lacks talent as evidenced by how bad the players suck in the NFL yet Alabama continues to win it all due to Saban's greatness. There is really no other way to see it.

Ingram I do agree has been a disappointment, but my hope is he gets a chance somewhere else and at least becomes a good reliable backup for 5 or 6 years.


When all this shakes out, Ingram will probably be the only real bust out of all those backs. He will get traded after this season and take a pay cut to be a backup. Hopefully, he will resurface as a stud with a team that will run the ball. Coffee was never superstar status like MI, TR, and EL anyway and he joined the Army. Frick off if anybody calls him a quitter for going to serve our country.

This.

What a retarded pick for an offense that throws the ball about 2039423455894 times a game.

Saints not a bad organization. Yes, they made a HUGE mistake in taking him in the first round. Ingram is first round material, maybe, before his knee injury.

Not sure of the validity of his military status, but that wasn't the reason he quit. I admire him for his decision, but at the time it was stated as "religious" reasons.

Coffee is an Army Paratrooper. IIRC he just found football unfulfilling and wanted to do something else.
