frick that shite...I wouldn't ride the pine either. Still don't see how all these lower tier RBs are dumb enough to actually sign with Bama.

Good luck to him.

He's gotten in trouble for behavior problems a few times already, and supposedly was being negative to recruits.


Hope the door hits him on the way out.

Well if you get yourself in the doghouse three times in one season, don't be surprised when you don't get playing time. I'm very happy about this news. Don't need any of our guys recruiting against us.

Kamara never bought in at #Alabama from the start, but if he finds the right home & gets focused, he will be a college star.

Been waiting since before the sugar bowl for this to come out. Couldn't be happier he's gone.

That makes zero sense. It's either our staff sold him a bunch of bull or he was upset because he had to compete. If he didn't buy into the program, why did we continue to recruit him and why did he sign with Bama?

Sometimes you have no idea how a kid will act away from home. I know some of the people I went to high school with that were considered "good kids" got involved in some crap when they went away from home. Same thing with Kamara. There is no way he can get in trouble three times since summer and expect playing time.

Didn't he also have an injury? I think this is more the staff getting rid of him. If he recruited against us then he doesn't deserve to live on our dime.

It was a minor knee scope. Saban said in September (I think) that he still had the opportunity to play.

Agreed! I know Coach Saban and Coach Kill are two different people, but when he recruited me to SIU he laid everything out and what the program expects and what you should expect. Maybe it was the wording of the tweet that threw me off. But none the less, I'm glad he is gone and both sides are able to carry on.

That's what makes our program so great right now. We get the kids who arent afraid to compete.

I am glad he is gone. He is a punk.

It's not that they're dumb, it's just that Saban is a good enough recruiter to convince them to sign on even with already tremendous depth. Either way, not a big loss. Kamara sounds like he poison to the program (telling recruits stuff)
