Coach Johnson tweeted this out today




I hope it's him, getting that kind of national FaceTime would do wonders for our recruiting. As a sidenote if it is him, it would be the most anti-Anthony grant move ever.

While cool, they may just have him on for a segment and then bring someone else in later.

Jesus....I hope it's not Taylor Hicks. Surely we aren't that desperate.

Sounds like we pushed for Avery to get the spot but ESPN said no.

I don't trust College Gameday. Seems like they want to troll Bama and bring in the other team's alumni, fans, etc.

He's a lifelong Alabama fan. He only committed to Auburn because they offered him a full ride and Jim Wells offered him a book scholarship.

Jim Wells, haven't heard that name in a long time. I was visiting family in Anniston(I live in Florida) in 2007 and Wells asked my dad and me to stop by to visit. We beat him to his office and when he got there, he sat back in his chair and flopped his feet up on his desk and knocked everything over Dude was wearing a full set of those old school heavy arse grey sweats. He was a clown We watched the Arkansas game with him and talked for a few hours. He offered me a scholarship and we were on our way back home. Pretty cool experience.

Makes too much sense for ESPN to do something like that..

If we're going to go with a musician, why not someone from Alabama like Isbell or Patterson Hood?
