Thankfully he'll only be out a matter of weeks.

If you're up for discussion, which post is that?

Edit: Nevermind. I tracked it down. Everything that can be said about that topic has already been said, and if you can't follow or disagree with the linear logic presented in that post, i.e. it seems the staff adjusted to last years' issue with bulking players up too much, given that they logically must have been behind the dropping of weight as well - then so be it. Personally, I don't ever think there was much of an issue then, and I definitely don't think there's an issue now. The Dline looks pretty good on the hoof to me.

Regarding your not engaging with me anymore, I usually don't pay a lot of attention to names on posts, but in the little that I have, it seems neither of us really respect the opinion much of the other person. We share a mutual disdain for the other's words, and so I welcome a lack of interaction between us in the future - and I commend you on this idea. Best luck to you, and Roll Tide.

On my end, the topic is dead. Just FYI.

I've seen some media chatter that Auburn may have one of the best D-lines in CFB this year.

I know they have a good front four;

But what about their depth? That is crucial in the SEC.

The injury that forced D.J. Dale to miss Alabama’s practice Thursday night is not thought to be major. According to a source close to Dale, the freshman defensive lineman suffered a minor knee injury that will likely keep him out roughly two weeks. Alabama head coach Nick Saban is expected to provide a full update on Dale's status following the team's first scrimmage Saturday.


Dale, who joined Alabama in December as an early enrollee, has made waves this offseason. The former three-star recruit broke into the first-team defense at nose guard this spring and tallied a sack during the A-Day game. He continued to make strides over the summer, dropping 15 pounds down to 6-foot-3, 308 pounds. Dale has been working with the first unit this fall prior to his injury.

Alabama is set to hold its seventh practice Friday at 2:30 p.m. before participating in its first scrimmage Saturday at 12:30 p.m. inside of Bryant-Denny Stadium.
