youre right, backup qb is not important at all. I mean its not like we are 1 dirty play away from having to play him, with our starter who is a running qb

and you do? Weve have heard it from so many recruits and players over the years, but why didnt we think to check with this particular barntard ranter? He knows the real scoop


What's your inside source, message boards? It's funny how the players that start always talk about Saban talking about the competition, but what about the 5 stars that never see the field? You're telling me that these kids have 3 or 4 5 star players in front of them and the only thing they're promised is competition. Get real, you bama fans amaze me, y'all really drink that kool-aid.

You are mad and I understand. Saban is your idol and you wouldn't ever believe he could do something wrong.


I'm 69 years old...I don't have "idols", but I'll admit that I don't have much tolerance for stupidity.

i have never seen a quote where someone says they were promised playing time or anything beyond the ability to compete for a position. I'd be happy to read one if you can provide.

You're 69, a message board shouldn't make you upset. Stick around and let me teach you a couple of things crispy

pretty much every recruit whos ever commented on his recruitment by alabama. I can understand why you are confused, seeing as how you cant get a 5 star to want to come to the pasture without a nice bag of cash, but dont project you insecuries on bama.

I think that's his favorite joke. He tells it every time he can.

Yeah you're right. Saban tells all of these recruits that they're going to start on day 1 in front of all the 5* that are already on the roster. And the kids believe him.

Come on man, don't get into this, you know bama is throwing cash at players, don't you? I admit AU is, but if you can't admit bama is you are too far gone.

They just don't get it. If they had it they'd understand.

Don't be naive, you have no idea what Saban promises those kids.


As another poster pointed out, current and former players have been on the record extensively about the recruitment process and earning P/T. There really is no mystery about it. Of course, we want the most talent at every position, but they have to earn that P/T....BB8 is not the first disgruntled 5* we had leave. I say that as huge BB8 fan prior to the A-Day game. Everyone thought he was the guy...then Hurts came out of nowhere as his mobility won over the coaches and his attitude and leadership won the team.

The inside source is the recruits themselves. Saban does not promise any player they will play

I'm glad Ohio state is relevant again, but pump the brakes before you start putting your team in with what bama has.

You should if you believe it is better, just don't call a employee at your new gig a quitter if he does the same thing! He is a hypocrite.

You're fighting a losing battle my man. Saban is an upstanding human being that doesn't cheat, lie and he does everything he says he's going to do.

Now if you can find me a link to the tons of 5 stars that never saw the field with the same statements.
