Shaun Alexander was obviously fun to watch.

But my fav, Freddie Roach. Number 8 on a linebacker is just something I like to see.

And I think Pagen will do it proud. Underrated right now to everyone but Bama fans. He could be the one the ends jff.

One of the most hated players of the time, one of my favorites in general.

I loved DJ's throat slash following the gator chump. I also loved that Vern thought it not nice.

I'll always remember the excitement when Freddie Milons went back to return a punt

Also gotta love Shaud and the way he handled the Bruno interview

Knight was poised for a big year in '08, just couldn't get that clearance to play. With the depth Bama didn't have at LB, it had to be something that truly worried them.

Better to be safe than sorry, but man it would have been awesome to see him finish up at Bama...

IIRC he had a heart condition that caused him to have a stroke. They even sent him to the Mayo Clinic. Wound up at Stillman

He fell off towards the end, injurys maybe, but when he would take that wide receiver reverse it would either be a 1,000 yard gain, or -30.

Fun times.

A kid from my high school actually out ran him in the 100m in a track meet before state. And the kid didnt even use starting blocks, too bad he was in the slow classes.

Protho would have been a beast in the league.

The DJ Hall video gave me chills. Im just as proud of the boys who represented while we was down, as I am of the boys who do it now. RMFT.
