Had nothing to do with finding him a place to play. He had pre-season surgery and when he was finally healthy enough to play he ended up in Saban's doghouse for discipline issues and got banned for our bowl game.

Exceptions have been made for people in Sabans doghouse with talent. DJ hall comes immediately to mind. Nope our staff whiffed on him big time however you want to church it up.

.

Keenan Allen - maybe cns was trying to make him play DB, and Allen also wanted his cousin or friend to get a Scholly- dude went on to be one of best wr in nfl. That one hurt.

Von Bell was a big miss

Didnt Dee hart switch positions, or did he just have 2 injuries ?

I know Cyrus Jones wasted a year at WR.

Bj Scott caught a pass in the uga blackout massacre before switch

Brent Calloway was another high recruit with no position that busted

Barrion Brown was a huge miss. Man we coulda used him last few years.

Robert Nkemdiche was a Bama lock. My niece had a class with him- he told her all the way to the end he was all Bama. His HS coach played at Bama. Dude wore nothing but Bama gear to school for years.

Keenan Allen wanted Saban to give a scholly to his brother who was a QB at Buffalo and wanted to play with his brother. Saban didn’t bite but Cal-Berkeley did.
I remember there was a handler involved too. Keenan was all Bama and even committed early but the brother killed the opportunity.

I honestly have no problem with it. I didn't then and don't now.

I think it's awesome they got to play together and have those life memories.

I remember stories of Kamara essentially negative recruiting guys that were on visit during his freshman year, telling them not to come, they’ll be stuck waiting for play time, etc…

I saw a while back where he essentially admitted to being discouraged when he was in the RB room seeing how buried he was on the depth chart
