Still bitter because we would not accept his commitment. He landed at a good program, needs to just get over it and move on

It's really more about LSU and Alabama. As referenced by the ":rivalry:" in the OP
It's odd, I comprehended the OP as a reference to a friendly rivalry between Malachi, Tony and Marlon.
Reading comprehension is a fascinating subject to me.
quote:
I was simply pointing out that Kevin Norwood had a very average career if you really look at his production
quote:
True. But not for our offense. Led the team with 7 receiving TDs in 213.
This must be why Bama has only had one WR drafted in the first round in 25+ years.
quote:Unfortunately he may have to hock them in a few years if he doesn't get a second contract in the NFL.
I'm sure he managed to console himself when he noticed he had 3 rings compared to ODB and Landry's...oh
quote:
LSU fans were told we would be sorry for losing Kenny Bell, Raheem Falkins and Cam Sims
quote:For the sake of this discussion they are all the same. La. guys who will likely never be developed or drafted. It's sad.
One of these things is not like the others.
quote:We all know how much WR's love to share the ball.
But then again we have more than 2 weapons and spread the ball around to multiple players.
quote:
Considering Chi is probably 3 and out, if he surpasses all three of them, it probably means you don't have any other viable options to pass to.
Or maybe Malachi will be more talented than all of the 5* players rotting on the bench at Bama. If you had a great receiver like Julio he would get plenty balls thrown his way.
quote:
Considering your whole argument is about how Bama has more weapons to throw to...
There are facts and there are arguments. LSU just had three receivers go in the NFL draft. Bama had 1. We have a very talented group of guys coming in that will probably surpass the production of the group at Bama. Time will tell Bubba.

Saban has had just as many as Les at LSU...and we will have another next yr's draft

Maybe he should call Matty Mauk

Wat??
Cam will likely be the LT starter 3 years and be a 1st round pick barring injury, Kenny Bell was never gonna be a draft pick, Falkins is a really good WR and will start to see some PT this year, but Bama is also deep as hell at WR

Oh you mean like Amari Cooper?

So.....wait a minute.......
You think LSU's group of WR's will surpass Bama's this year? Do you not realize the clusterfrick situation LSU has at QB right now? Not only that but Leonard Fournette coming in and a great OL mostly returning...LSU is gonna run it a lot more often than they pass it this year bubba

It would be nice to have the hometown guy cheering on the starters from the bench. Will he have more career tackles than Kenny Bell had receptions ? I hope he doesn't waste his talent on the bench at Bama like so many other La. boys have.

Les has also had seven other WR's drafted that he recruited and developed.
Saban has had one first round draft pick (Julio) and one fourth round draft pick (Kevin Norwood).

That might be a good idea when Tyrann knocks his front teeth out in the NFL. Matt Mauck is a dentist in the Denver area the last I heard.

This is a thread about WR's Bubba.
quote:

Yeah, I wouldn't trade Malachi for he or any other
WR rotting on the bench at Bama. Amari is far from a finished product. He gets most of his catches from bubble screens and double moves on the outside. I don't see a complete receiver by any stretch. He will go in the first round because of his immense talent.
quote:Did I say this year?
You think LSU's group of WR's will surpass Bama's this year?
I said I think this young group of receivers will surpass the production of the group at Bama over time.

Brandon Harris is extremely talented Bubba.
FTR i'm not at all impressed with the big goofy kid from Fla. St. He is VERY raw if you have watched any of his film.

Talent evaluation plays a huge role at schools that are relying on 3 and 4 star players to start, but when Bama is about to have a defense with possibly every starter being a former 5 star, its not like he is picking diamonds out of the rough
Do you think Saban cares about how 247 ranks and evaluates players?
The thing is that it is nearly impossible for a kid with a Bama offer to be a diamond. A kid gets a Bama offer and he will get offers from several BCS programs shortly afterwards. He will also get the attention of the recruiting analysts who will then change his ranking. The "Bama bump" if you will. An example of this is current Bama commit S. Fla Shawn Burgess Becker. Bama was the first major school to offer him even before the Miami offer came. I can't tell you how many times there will be a kid who receives an offer or a coach's visit who is unranked by 247. That is called talent evaluation.
Talent evaluation is also knowing when to turn down the five star for the three star. In 2013 Bama turned down 5* Vonn Bell for 3* Eddie Jackson.
Nick Saban is not dependent on recruiting rankings for his team. Sometimes their opinions are similar on players, and other times they are not.

I'm glad Dupre said that, the kid is talented and confident. What is wrong with that? Oh, it's because he said it about Alabama players and their fans have thin skin, lol!

Lol @ you mentioning other players, like Big Cam as not gonna be developed or drafted...me calling you out on your stupidity...then you claim it's only about WRs
BTW who recruited Bowe? Or better yet who FOUND Bowe at Miami Norland HS
Saban
And it is comical that you claim you would take a guy who you don't have any idea about yet over an accomplished SEC WR who again will be a 1st round pick next year
Also lulz @ assuming Harris is good and Coker isn't...at some point this season something tells me you'll be mad

Only thing similar between Kwon and Williams is both home state schools wouldn't accept their scholarship. Difference is because Kwon had an injury, and is back to 100% health.

Tim will get to show what he has this year with a lot more PT as will Kwon

This is interesting to me. Do you know how many balls Malachi caught this season for JC? I saw three of his games and he maybe had 3 catches. I remember one where he didn't have one. Maybe it's a product of the offense he plays in? Why didn't JC just toss him the ball every play? Why didn't JC toss him the ball ever? Why is it that the only way we pretty much know anything about Malachi is from recruiting writers at camps?
Don't mean to screw up your troll though. You probably saw him play in person lots of times.

Maybe a product of the offense he played in? Maybe? You know damn well its a product of the offense they played in. And I'm sure you know its also a product of having a running back playing qb for most of the year.
Posted on 5/18/14 at 11:54 am to BuccWildBammer
Les also had Randle drafted in the 2nd.. we could probable toss Lafell and Doucet in there too as 3rd rounders.

Of course it was. Apparently you missed the point I was trying to make to the idiot I quoted.

Yeah that, and they both play OLB in the same division.
