Keilan Robinson is either opting out or transferring back to home to Maryland.

He hasn't said which yet.

Agents may be getting more aggressive in reaching out to players.

Bingo. I think a lot of them are just using it as a cover for simply sitting out the year in anticipation of getting drafted.

Moses hasn't played a down since Freshman year, he would be risking a ton of money to not play.

Even pops knows this

Saban on Opting out:

Saban on players not opting out: "I'm excited about the fact that we have a bunch of guys who are committed to playing. ... Once you make a commitment to doing something, it creates more value for you if you do it the right way."

COVID is one thing, I just hope that agents or alumni aren't trying to convince these kids that they should measure the season the same as opting out of Bowl games. If so, it will mostly affect elite guys like Newman and Chase.

Can you repeat that again? He hasn't played a down since freshman year? You do know he is a senior?

I thought it was Keilan Robinson and an unnamed Backup Lineman that opted out?

Moses doesn't have a high first round spot assured if he's out for two years.

A guy like Ja'Marr Chase can never improve his stock from where it is right now. Not many kids have that luxury.

Didn’t Saban say something about the players requesting that he keep any info on opting out private?

Yes, but all players have been accounted for in practice photos/videos/reports outside of KR and a mystery backup OL.

Not all players. In the video or photo, you clearly can't account for all of those players in single video or photo.

Right, that's why I included "reports." Meaning, practice/scrimmage reports, players mentioned in press conferences, etc.
