I think Brannon and Knott were put on a medical scholarship. I don't know if that counts on the 85 limit or not.

I think Mayden is a senior.

Bama has to make a lot of room if they take 27 in this class.

Update note in this thread's 2019 Roster post:

Per BOL, OL Hunter Brannon out indefinitely and DB Nigel Knott to get medical redshirt. Knott cleared to continue playing fb.

I've seen no report yet of Knott or Brannon going on a medical hardship scholarship (non-counter).

My bad on Mayden. Fixed, removed him. Thanks.

Holy shite TWatts just basically posted an update saying Georgia tried to get Young, Jones Bell, Anderson and Branch the last week.

The entire pitch to Jones Bell was negative about Alabama.

quote:

Thaiu Jones Bell said today in an interview that multiple SEC schools tried to flip him at the end including UGA. The UGA recruiting pitch? To talk bad about Alabama. The results? That made him want to go to Alabama even more.


quote:

EDIT: To be clear we hear these stories all the time and usually don’t comment on them. But all of this information was said by the players on the record in interviews in front of several people. They clearly didn’t mind the information getting out. These are not rumors.

Mentioned that they also desperately tried to flip Brian Branch. It will be so nice to obliterate them next September. Hope Saban doesn’t even shake that snakes hand at midfield

It’s so odd that both Coach Bryant and Saban’s protégés turned into such bitches when they left for other coaching jobs. Kirby at Georgia and Dye at Auburn.

I mean go be your own man at your new school. It’s like they’re both obsessed with them. And it’s hurting Kirby and only gonna get worse for him going forward. He got pounded by LSU in the SECCG. And now all this stuff is coming out about his slime ball tactics. And he still can’t beat Saban and Alabama and probably never will

Kirby didn't turn into anything. He's always been this way. He used the same negative recruiting when he was here. He's always been a bastard but he used to be our bastard. Now he's UGAs bastard. He's definitely a piece of garbage but I don't know why anyone is surprised by it.

Whether he turned into this or not I never heard these kind of slimy stories about him when he was at Alabama

I actually always heard Saban never allowed the negative recruiting and always spoke of what Alabama does

surge, i went to the first page on the roster and the depth at positions trying to see where we were with the 85. but those lists dont tell me who's on scholly and who isnt. plus anoma is still on the positional depth chart. i just stopped counting when i seen his name.

dont get me wrong here, i'm not knocking your work if you made those lists. i for one really appreciate your work.

Knew Kirby was a bitch when he sit right next Saban on that Championship interview and said something about Saban retiring in 5 years.

You don't need to count. This 2019 Roster post (depth by position format) accurately accounts for everyone on scholarship that counts toward the 85 limit. As I noted in my post at the top of this page, today I created a new 2020 Projected Roster post that I'll be continually updating when potential departures and additions become certain. This 2019-20 Depth Distribution chart is BOL's, not mine. I DMd these needed corrections to Hank several weeks ago. He said he'd pass that along to get it updated. I'll follow up on that.
