To play for Alabama, they came to play for Nick Saban! Here's all the proof you need in this article.

That was some BS.

quote:

But every coach he built a relationship with and taught him the defense, they all left.

"It's essentially a new football program."


So his solution is...to find a new program with coaches hes never worked with before and quit on his teammates that are staying

Just be real Mr Downs...yall are chasing the bag

And Downs Daddy trying to cover up the tampering by saying he can now talk to other coaches since he is formally in the portal.

Bond at least had the decency to say it was just a business decision.

Some of these football parents just like to be asked to talk and indulge the journalists.

All that needed to be said is it was a business decision and leave it at that. Business decision can mean a lot of things and it would be correct. What he said just sounds like stupid shite to backwards engineer to prior suitor coming back into the picture and they liked their offer and coaching staff on defense better than Alabama's. Can't say that without putting their kid's new employer on sanctions though.

Great parents these days. When things get rough or change happens just quit. Tremendous life coaching.

However the 70% of the roster is there to play for Bama. The Bama Standard. The Tradition and legacy still means something to these players.

To the other 30% I say read the Malichi Moore quote.

I get it. And it’s his choice. Not only are his coaches gone, but the scheme at Bama is changing. Pretty clear he’ll go to UGA. They play the same d. Use similar if not identical terminology. Best of luck to him. He’s a good one.

This is the reason that my wife and I have been arguing for the last year and a half. Coincidentally, when he experienced a coaching change at his school in Virginia. You don’t turn your back on your teammates or tuck your tail between your legs and run when they need you the most. Everyone on that team needs each other and needs to circle the wagon and have each others back!

Caleb Downs will get the biggest boo of anyone in BDS history when he comes to town next fall.

I’m sure he is expecting to play in the NFL. What happens when your coach staff gets canned… he just up and quits? Requests a trade that will be denied??

Well hopefully nothing happens with the allegations of Kirby letting recruits drink at his house… or he’ll be in the portal again…
