That is disappointing. Its just seems wild that if this is something that people knew that Saban would have allowed it to go unchecked.

DeBoer doesn’t even realize it, but the next 3 weeks might define his entire Alabama Career.

I mean, looking at those names it kinda makes sense. Most of those guys were brought into the program when Alabama was playing for or in contention for championships so I can easily see some entitlement issues. Haynes is probably frustrated with his opportunities but meh, let him go to Georgia or Ohio State.

From my understanding he is a big complainer. Complains about everything. We’ve all had that teammate they are annoying AF. It finally takes someone to tell them to STFU or walk.

More like Georgia State or Ohio University with the way he's played this year.

As I started to hear this, I started watching at live games, all the body language. It’s so obvious there is an issue. Like freaking clicks on the sideline.

Haynes I would bet is frustrated by usage

Booker and Milroe are probably tied to the hip

Malachi is just... ugh at this point

Campbell? No clue.

Pritchett? Probably attitude

Edit: Boz hit it, attitude for pritchett

Why in the world would Ty Simpson stay with us if this was/is going on?

Thought he was a Christian? Better check himself on that.

Take over the ship once they're gone

Clearly there's a good slew of the team bought in

That's why I am a little skeptical about all of this. If it's that kind of problem surely Saban would have alerted DeBoer to it. He was reportedly never one to mince words about a player in the draft when NFL coaches asked his opinion. I just can't imagine him not letting DeBoer know who the problems are.

Roach, Gillespie, and Ballou would have maybe spoken up about it

That’s the other problem. There’s lot of crap (that’s deserved) about previous coordinator hires. But our positional coaching hires over the last few years have been very disappointing. I think it’s contributing greatly to many of the issues we have seen over the last few years and especially this season

These guys recruit well on paper but many of these recruits are not panning out. So it’s either lack of good talent evaluation (not every top 100 player is going to be good) and/or player development. Of course the fundamentals many of the positions being lacking can be traced back to these coaches too.

And even the discipline can possibly be partially blamed on some of them. They’re not the HC but they’re still coaches and mentors for these players and it doesn’t look like they’re doing the best job

I’m not saying they’re the whole problem of course. But many of these guys have not done well

They were trying to retain as many players as possible at the time of Nick turning in his keys. That strategy may have been a mistake.

Milroe doesn’t look hurt. He looks like he’s reverted to 2023 habits. It hurts to watch but that afflicts all us not him.

This is a key piece of it. The players had the power at that point.

I understand that part, but to me there's a difference between guys with difficult personalities or maybe some work ethic issues and guys who are so over the top in their selfish douchebaggery that they poison the entire locker room and convince them to essentially take a fricking dive. I think talent can make you look the other way to an extent on the former, but not on the latter.

Hate to say it and I'm not exactly up on my remaining eligibility but once 52 & 13 are gone the remaining malcontents won't have as near a big presence in the locker room.

22 will go to the highest bidder after our bowl game. Fact is I say he will opt out of any bowl game. Based on how he is running the ball today, he will not be missed.
