Miller is listed at 222 by 247. If that's accurate, he could get to 230-235 by fall. That's heavy enough to play.

Do you see Ronnie playing any next year???


On defense? No. Special teams? Maybe.

He's bigger than CJ was coming out of high school and probably faster. I think his future is at LBer. I also think he will be very, very good before his time is up.

You wanna weigh in on this class' potential for next year? I feel like I'm fighting a losing battle here.



Like I said in that other thread, most will come on the lines. The JuCos for sure, but I think players like Robinson and Hand will see a good bit. Bama usually doesn't redshirt players they think are 3 and done.

It's hard seeing a for sure spot for Robinson, as the case was with Kouandjio. They still played him, like I think they will Robinson. Not comparing them, but I think he's far enough along flaw included to play. Fluker was going into his 2nd year playing OL period as a freshman, he had a lot of work to do. If they redshirt him, I'm not sure they see him contributing in 2 years assuming Hill and Jackson are the tackles.

I think someone like Bo or Brown may see some playing time, freshman always seem to find a way to get a little in crowded spots.

A lot of ST players and scout teamers. Holcombe has been told he's gonna be put on all units his freshman year. I'm sure he's not the only one...

It's not accurate. He weighed in at 205 during his OV this past weekend.

I agree that some will get playing time, but I also don't think they will get meaningful snaps.

If CRob does play I think it will be to get acclimated to the speed of SEC football. I don't see Hill as the long term answer at LT, but he's probably our best bet for next season. I can definitely see him moving over to RT after next season with Robinson taking the LT spot.

I think Jackson wins the RG spot, he played that this past season at JUCO and performed very well. I see Hill as our LT next year. He's athletic enough and strong as hell, but I don't think he is the answer long term.

I see CRob being our LT in 2015 with Jackson at RG and Hill at RT.

I apologize if this is Germans, but I can't remember if it was posted here. Coker is expected to OV this weekend. Watts is still trying to confirm exact dates and times.

I'm starting to change my mind on the amount of time that Frazier will play next season. I know the staff wants him down around 310, but I could see him playing significant snaps at NG around 330.

He played lights out in the Army game against elite competition and seems to have his head on his shoulders.

I think he would see the field before Elam.

Wut? I said he would be a RG. As in Right Guard.

ETA: Magilla pointed it out. I was not aware that I fricked up the latter part of my post. Kudos for pointing that out.

Good news if true. We certainly don't want him taking OVs anywhere else. I've seen where LSU is interested as well.

Saban seemed to be pretty straightforward about wanting Jackson at OT and not G today. Jackson doesn't seem to be a player Saban needs to throw false promises at, he's coming regardless.

Hard to fit 8 into 5 though...

ETA: And you did put RB in you last post above

Damnit. I just looked at the RG in the beginning of the post. It's been a long fricking day.

Who do you like better at RT, Brown or Jackson? Both appear to have had success inside (Brown for us and Jackson at JUCO), and we still have Shepherd coming back.
