re: When do Bama NFL prospects start packing it in?

I hope they do if that is their attitude in general. Even if they didn't opt out, they aren't going to be preparing and pushing like they should.

Meanwhile, it will be doing the team a favor, let some of these younger guys come in and build on next year. I think they give players 4 games they can play in and still redshirt. Let's put the players who want to play out there.

That's how I feel about it anyway. If anyone wants to opt out, next man up.
