Koolaid could definitely get in there if someone goes down with injury or something. He may even work his way in if someone struggles early.

JoJo Earle made it as a specialist.


Will he be featured on both Punts & kick offs?
Also Who is he paired with chase or Sanders on kick offs?

The Truth... Good last week of fall camp

The Truth... Players are excited to end fall camp as school started on Wednesday. Rather than have football meeting/ speakers/ weights/ practice from 6 AM to 10 PM, they are now with their normal weekly schedules with meetings then practice at 330 every day. This has been a very good week of practice. Some updates on the week.

The Truth... OL.. Neal and Owens have been back at practice but Randolph is still out. This has given Latham and George a chance to get reps with first team at RT which will help us down the road. Both have played well. Dalcourt has been bunged up and has been missed this week. Dalcourt is a very strong backup center. Hopefully he will be available for scrimmage. Dalcourt and Latham will be stars next year if not this year if needed.

The Truth...Jameson Williams will start at WR. He has been starting for awhile and expect him to be a big threat this year. I would not be surprised if he was our leading WR. Metchie is great too. The freshman are all really good with JoJo, Brooks, and Leary coming on strong. Hall has done good but others have improved more during camp.

The Truth... To'oto'o will start at LB so expect both transfers to start. Harris and To'oto will start with Moody and Lawson behind them since Lee is hurt. Lawson is the guy to watch.

The Truth... Branch as Saban said has been real good. Some think he is our biggest play maker. He has a nose for the ball and is very instinctive. With DeMarco out, expect him to start at safety. DeMarco will be out for several weeks with ankle issue.

The Truth... Offense starts at QB...Bryce has had a very good week at practice and is becoming a leader. Bryce will be ready for his first start. Paul has also had a very good week and runs the offense very well. Bryce and Paul are calling many checks in routes and blocking and have the offense down. Both are starting to get their timing down with all the WRs with some great pass plays all week. The coaches are doing a fantastic job after losing so many starters on offense and with very little experience at QB. Milroe struggles with checks and schemes but is a good runner. Expect to see him in wild cat and expect to see Trey Sanders in wild cat.

We sign the highest rated recruiting class of all time and 247 doesn't have us with a single true freshman in the preseason all american list. And honestly? I can't disagree. This team has gotten so heavy with talent I don't really see any of them getting heavy playing time unless Latham or Kool-Aid can break through into the starting lineup. If the offense can gel quickly


I looked through the last few years and Alabama has had a freshman all American on their site in 2016, and 2018-2020. And those weren’t on special teams. I don’t foresee that changing this year

Agree. He is the best Alabama interviewee I’ve ever seen. Extremely intelligent and articulate. In fact, one of the best in the country.

On another topic; IMO, there should no concern about QB play, assuming he stays healthy. More concern about RB starter, OL and WR corps, though they should all work out at least OK.

With the talent we have at RB, i wouldn't think there would be any concern about RB starter. We have at least 4 that would start at 90% of the P5 schools.

I wouldn’t be concerned about those things.

Long time no see, at least for me. Give me one surprise starter for game one. More like a dark horse. I know the RT has been sort of wide open. Even the DL has some many studs that there might be a surprise there.

Exactly. Alabama is loaded at running back. Jameson Williams and Metchie will be stars at wide receiver. Who else steps in beside them will be interesting. But I would have to include Billingsley and Latu as receivers, too. The offensive line is a bit of a question mark because who will start at right tackle. Is Latham ready for the big show ? Maybe Dalcourt takes over at center at some point.

Anderson and Harris looking scary AF over there. This defense is gonna be so fun to watch. I feel like we might get a Michigan St CapOne bowl type game where they knock out the whole QB room.

I really hope that they rotate Braswell and Sanders. Maybe one or two other guys. This outside linebacker unit is loaded and should remain fresh.

Let those young pups take their beatings, going to mold them to better players. Skies the limit for those two
