I don't buy this small town big town argument. At one time this might have been significant but I've driven all over this country and TODAY there isn't a lot of difference between one area vs another as long as the city has a significant retail development, which Tuscaloosa certainly does have that...

No we tried hiring the cook and then telling him what ingredients to use after Bear. Didn't work. We hired DeBore, he's a winner, he will assemble the staff and the team and we will move forward. I'm sure we all want to win in 2024 but it's more important to put the program back in solid groun...

I'm pretty sure this year was it for Julio Jones. Can we just clear a spot for him to come back?...

Good morning, except for all the trolls who are here to cause pain. you can go back to whatever hole you climbed out of. I wanted to give a little perspective, having lived a freakin long time. I was in high school when Bear died and was a freshman in the second season after. The first season...

[quote]We need a big improvement with the ILBs in pattern match situations. Michigan abused them in the Rose Bowl. LB corp in general is one of those situations where the talent is there but the next step to being great is needed.[/quote] It's been a while since we had a MLB who was in additio...

I feel like we need something extra offensively to win this game. I think our receivers are good, they should get some. I feel Milro is what he is, he should get what he can get, but our run game is just not coming up with any big plays. by big play I mean break a tackle inside and gash them f...

[quote]When is the last time a highly recruited RB got so few carries and a) stuck around or b) turned into a great player?[/quote] I don't think Jam or Haynes will be going anywhere. First off they are two plays from 1A and 1B in the backfield. Plus Both McClellan and Williams could both leav...

Agree. haven't seen licks laid like that in a number of years. I was especially surprised to see life from our DL. It seemed to help them with more rotation from the 2's. The offense is still... They are on life support. It's not that they utterly lack talent, but they will have 8 good play...

I'm just curious how a coach who has done this for as long as Nick Saban has, is not identifying problems during scrimmages, you know, like every other coach in Division I....

I think Culture is partly to blame. When I look around college football with the exception of Kirby Smart it seems most head coaches are coming from he offensive side. So the best and brightest minds offensively don't want to come here and run saban's offense they want to run their own. So we end...
