Truth is even though he started (had to due to lack of talent) Harris was a very ordinary ILB with the exception of the last 6 games this season. He is fast. It seems like when Bama played a spread team with the mobile both he and Henry got caught in the wash time and time again. The entire defense got better once the mobile QB's went away. Hogs were the last team with a QB running and often.

Yea - Harris had a very solid career, but I'm not sure he'd have gotten any better next year. I would have hated to start 2 new ILBs, but with HTT back I'm very happy to see the next wave and see if we have another elite ILB in that group like years past.

I’m all for Washington coming to Bama but my goal as S&C would be to cut 10-15lbs off him to make him faster and more of a receiving threat than just jump balls over the middle

Also think we need to find a jumbo WR or TE/H-back to fill Billingsley leaving. Amari or the new TE Brown?

Amari Niblack is a very talented jumbo WR.

Tight Ends (6)
Sr: M Tennison*^
Jr: C Latu*^
So: R Ouzts
Fr: C Clark*, A Niblack, E Brown

I don't think Tennison or Randolph will get a 6th-year FB scholly.

Seen him put a hat on a hat with some authority several times. He was the kinda player that could have caught those five yard passes in the endzone that Latu and Billingsly derped the frick up all season.

Did you not see him play ?

Pow is right. I've seen same thing. I promise you, our TE room this fall will be very good. Latu is a good option, and Robbie and the freshman can put up solid number.

I don't think we'll look to Portal for TE unless an elite TE from Georgia becomes available and then at that time we take him. I can see us rotating 3 TEs throughout the season.

Me personally, I don't think we need to look to the portal right now. I say we look after May... We need to evaluate our players this spring, and see where they are depthwise...

Coaches gonna have to evaluate several positions...
Who's gonna back up Young? Simpson or Milroe?

Who's gonna be 1A and 1B running back?

Who's going to step up at WRs? I don't think any of the positions are locked.. it's up for grabs.

OL line, whos the best 5 on the field? We won't know that until fall camp.

LBs: whos gonna replace harris?

CBs: the position will sort itself out.

IMO, I think we get 3-5 transfer into Alabama team: OL, DL, LB, RB and maybe a punter.

JJ Pegues, from Auburn, is set to enter into transfer portal.

What I saw was a converted OLB playing TE and a H-back that shite the bed for 15 games. If Nick Saban had anybody better than he would have played them.

But the TE room is in good shape.

I think Pegues grew into a DL.
