Not one single comment about the “Juice Squad”? You guys are slipping. I honestly didn’t think Pancake Posse could be outdone.
Pancake Posse was actually a great nickname...just doesn't work when you...give it to yourself...during the summer...and then play like the Flapjack Flops.
But "juice squad" sounds like a middle aged group of women that meet on Tuesdays for a zumba class.
And obviously our OL isn't actually juicing.
Obviously.

Rooting for a University to win a decision over money is so hard for me.
Don't look at it as rooting for UW. Look at it as rooting for a just outcome in a legal dispute. The law is (or should be) blind. You sign a contact, you uphold your end of the deal.

Kelby Collins hitting the portal.

So that would make it 18. This is seriously sounding like a 53 man roster like the nfl and then 50 practice squad players. Yearly free agency. This is absolutely going to be the death knell for college football. No way this continues for 10-20 years. Fan support will die off and the money will too. Crazy shite
I saw a video earlier of some podcast I’m not familiar with about UNAs punter coming to Alabama

Why? Keenan, Overton, Smith, Keeley gone. Why leave with a starting position wide open?

I would be surprised if Collins is getting any serious cash offers

Same for me as well as I worked in that area over the summer. But whoever said they're in the eastern time zone is correct. But my phone and car thinks otherwise...
I'm not from Alabama but heard they're the only city in Alabama that's in the eastern time zone?

I didn’t make millions of dollars to catch a football when I was 18.

So this is the current state of our LOS going into 2026…
DE: gone
NT: gone
DL: gone
Edge: returning
WLB: gone
MLB: gone
LT: gone
LG: gone
C: gone
RG: gone
RT: returning
Of those 11 LOS positions, I’d argue a full 8 are up in the air as to who the starter will be and that doesn’t even include RT which might be in flux if Carroll moves to LT.
We’ve never had anything close to this level of churn and I’d argue it’s far more in flux at the starter level than it was when Saban left.
Personally I’m going to check out for a few days and hope for the best but this is uncharted territory for sure.

Yes, so tell us all what you were doing at 18?
Were you working hard for years to develop a skillet which multimillion company's sought after to exploit for revenue generation?
I don't even know what that has to do with demanding from others what you can't even do yourself?

At some point around the early to mid 00s, universities crossed the line of greed and the sport transitioned from an actual school/community event where tradition and pageantry were respected....to a means for greedy administrators to enrich themselves on the backs of the football programs. The fans were the main ones exploited, not the players.
They, and not the players, share 100% of the blame for the current state of the game.
All that said, the market is and always will be the brand, not the players. Fans dont root for players, they root for the team. Many players today are worth millions...till their eligibility runs out, then they are back to being nobodies with the rest of us
