I know people don't like hearing it but Coach Bryant would play entire units. 2 or 3 QB's sub entire backfields and play a second OL.

Could you do this today? I don't know but it worked well for him, kept people fresh, and players happy. Hed play upwards of 70 players in some games.

There were no scholarship limits. His second string would be an Ole Miss type roster of the modern era and his third string a Kentucky type roster of the modern era.

Andrew Bone just said we are tapped-out money wise for next year's roster.

That’s bold coming from Miami. They’re one of the OGs in the tampering game.

Their boosters literally admitted to offering $6.5M to a Bama player who wasnt in the portal within the last 7-10 days.

Meaning our revenue sharing has reached the cap but NIL I would wager Bone has no inside info on how much or where it all comes from nor sits in talks with agents.

South Carolina edge rusher Desmond Umeozulu blindsided the Gamecocks last week by entering the NCAA transfer portal on Jan. 15, just before the transfer window closed- a full day after he had already signed a contract to play for South Carolina in 2026.

Now here's where it gets messy. Because Umeozulu signed that contract and then exited via the portal, the agreement is now considered broken. Choices always have consequences, especially when contracts are involved, and Umeozulu’s move shows how quickly a commitment can turn into a legal and financial headache. South Carolina is now pursuing the six-figure buyout that was in that deal. A university source confirms that the buyout, which could be triggered by either Umeozulu or his new school, is being enforced, though details on timing and total figure remain sealed.


If already discussed I apologize but the first time I have seen it.

At the risk of being penalized for violation of the terms of the thread, I’ll bite. They’ll make Portal 3 if/when an outsider comes in and takes over. Gabe and co. don’t push projects on their staff, even though they probably should at least every once in a while. If/when a portal 3 is ever released I’ll submit a two-three day PTO request. lol

Looks good so far. The only person I hated losing was Isaiah Horton.

He made some plays this year when Williams went MIA.

Coach Bryant also had two depths of starting caliber players. Hell he took a QB out of Louisiana and turned him into a safety just so LSU would t get him if memory serves correctly.

Coach Bryant played numerous players at DB that other coaches wanted at QB.

Tommy Wilcox and Jim Bob Harris were two.

That's interesting landing spot for him. Miami don't really use their guys on defense we'll.
