Everything Nick Saban said after Alabama's sixth preseason practice


Saban said this about the kicking game...
quote:

We had to play inside so if we can evaluate how that looks going up in the net. I couldn't tell you, but it's been good when we've been outside.


I wonder if Bama uses an indoor kicking simulator, similar to those indoor golf simulators.

It looks like at least one company has a football simulator, but not sure how sophisticated it is:

Gridiron Simulator





ETA: Maybe not too sophisticated since the first screen says "Throw!" and the football is on a kicking tee and the laces are facing in in the second photo

This is not 2012 and Alabama is a pass first offense. They’ve recruited personnel for a passing offense and the best playmaker is the QB in the offense. They most definitely need explosive playmakers at WR to fully maximize offensive effectiveness.

In particular the offense needs a speed guy to make it all click.

With Burton and Brooks the possession game is set, but Bama won’t hit its offensive ceiling unless one of Harrell/Leary/any of the freshman can play at a high level and threaten the safeties.

I think Leary and Harrell will more than fill that role. I have a feeling we will be running the football a little more this year. Gibbs, Sanders, McClellan, and Williams are all very talented backs who bring something a little different to the table.

This must be what our "Special Teams" have been training on most of the Saban era! Lol!

I agree. Saban has stated he wants the offensive line to be nasty and get back to being physical. With the WR's being young and inexperienced and the quality of backs on this team, I believe we lean more on the run game this year.

I am going to disagree here somewhat. Yes I think we hope to utilize our run game more but not because of our WR corps. Saban never has been a pass happy coach and last year because of our OL we had to think pass more often than not. Not having that OL or run game last year cost us the NC.

Burton is on the Biletnikoff watch list. Just because UGA did not use him like they should have, mainly due to Stetson inability, does not mean he will not be one of the top WRs in the conference this fall.

this team has the potential to be a great offense utilizing both run and throw. Defenses are not going to be able to just stack the box or drop back in coverage.

Expect big things from Leary. Might rotate with Harrell and Burton but the kid has game changing ability, just needed time to learn to be a fully rounded receiver and play with that confidence.

With our WR group we will have the pleasure of watching the studs rise to the top.

Former Alabama and current Texas wide receiver Agiye Hall was arrested Thursday night by UTPD on Class B misdemeanor charges. Hall was booked at 9:06 p.m. by the Travis County Sheriff’s Office where he was charged with criminal mischief equal to or great than $100 but less than $750. His bond is currently listed at $0.

I can't wait until I don't have to see this dude mentioned on an Alabama board again. The Texas game is going to be mind melting tedium about these dudes.

Coach Saban on the Dan Patrick show this morning, “I’ve never been tempted to leave Alabama”.

So much for "he almost left for Texas."

Well we sure as hell have the horses at RB to pound teams on the ground


You’re not lying.

Think about who we have:

Jayce
Williams
Gibbs
Sanders

Plus what 3 highly ranked freshman?

Kendrick Law and Amari Niblack are impressive looking players. They definitely pass the eye test.
