How? Outside of a few positive post during his visit, nothing screams "I love Alabama." Not saying he won't go there, but every move from him so far seems like a kid feeling out his few top spots. The Texas visit was probably to verify and test his baseline. I've have watched way too many times some positive tweets about Auburn, only to head elsewhere.

Did you see the news that broke last week? Saban retired. They are losing players everywhere. They aren't front runners anymore.

The WR coach also split.

That must be why he spent more time in Auburn last fall.

Looks like RW didn't recommit and take it that far if he is trolling Bama. Either way I choose to take that as a piece of evidence Stidham and Chex are on to something here with him


I wouldn’t have been shocked if he did but it would’ve been a little extreme. He’s played them enough.

For as certain as you are, it puzzles me why you never even commented in the mega thread.

Bama heard Beaman was leaving and have been working incredibly hard to keep him. Not sure if he’s going in now or not.

If I was given the chance to record a video with Roll Tide Willie, I'd do it in a heartbeat.


That man has grown on me in a way I didn't know possible.

This video broke me, especially when he says "Who's gonna fill his shoes?" while kicking his barefoot arse feet in the air

So many questions come to me while watching that, and if answered would lead to another round of questions I'm sure.

Old, stupid man walking down the dirt road bare-footed. It is almost like that was staged to capture all of the elements of the hillbilly Alabama sterotypes.

There's something so charming about him though. I can't put my finger on it.

He just seems harmless. And hilarious.

Why a sports coat but no shoes? What happened? Did he leave his shoes at the board meeting earlier in the day?

They all seem harmless and hilarious until something breaks in their head and they dump plant killer on our oak trees.

He is hilarious but you are dead on. He is a loose cannon. His NIL stance sure isnt progressive. Can we negative recruit that?


His puppeteer needs to make sure all social media accounts are scrubbed because I have seen bigger names get buried.

The entire Alabama fan base and booster system without the Tip of the Spear in charge anymore.

They're just upset that what everyone has been doing is now out in the open, and the permanent Saban discount they had has expired.

I mean, did they bury Updyke? I thought he was creamated.

Your sauce seems to never account for the fact other teams will counter pitch for guys feeling good about auburn in a particular moment

I like it when people who have knowledge from within the program get criticized by those with none. It makes those insiders more willing to share info, so let me pour it on with ya

Smurphy source sucks man. I wish he never brought any news because he gets me excited about something happening, then sometimes it doesnt and it makes me feel emotional and sad. Damn you SMURPHY!!!
