gore_315: These past two years have been nothing short of magical. It's difficult to come up with the words to describe this journey here at The University of Alabama. At this time I've chosen to explore the option of joining another program for my final 2 years of eligibility. To be clear, I want to give a special thanks to Coach Saban and Coach Burns for giving this kid from NY a shot, I'm forever grateful. So in closing I leave you with, Roll Tide!
