There it is boys. Confirmed mouth breather or troll. Regardless this dude’s comments should be ignored.

Ryan Williams is as polished as they get. Kid is elite.

Didn’t watch his tape…as if you would know what to look for even if you did watch tape.

His size sucks. I haven’t watched any tape but most of the guys his size end up busting.


He's almost exactly the same size as Smitty was.

To be clear from a skill and speed standpoint I think it's undeniable the kid is elite

At 6' 165lbs though, I don't think it's unreasonable to wonder if a would be HS senior is going to be ready to block against 18-22yo CBs and safeties in the SEC

I will never understand the need to label someone a troll just because they disagree with you.

I’m a Bama graduate and have been an Alabama fan my entire life, and I’m more optimistic today than I ever thought I could be after Saban announced he was retiring; however, I’m no sunshine pumper. I was unrelentingly negative for weeks during this past off season about the coordinator position hires. I was extremely upset about something I love and needed a place to vent, and this was that place. People on here immediately resorted to calling me and anyone else that wasn’t Uber positive a troll and barner and asking for the mods to bring out the ban hammer just because of the negative opinions.

I don’t get it. Why does a person who isn’t a typical sunshine pumper always get the troll label, name calling and the ban request?

Why can’t the members of this board handle a little disagreement? Can’t we all be better than this?

Actually he does have a point about his size. I doubt he is ready to block 200+ pound DBs on day 1.

Sheesh, this place has lost all its charm

He definitely got roughed up the first game of the year against the Tennessee DB signee. Needs to bulk up some, but he is elite as elite gets as a plug and play prospect. He will have immediate and profound impact at whatever school signs him.

Some people are just a-hole's but I agree with you about the optimism going forward. I was stunned when Saban retired but I got excited quickly when we landed DeBoer.

I think Byrne made a grand slam hire. DeBoer has made some first decisions as the new HC in the people he brought with him from Washington and the folks he is hiring with ties to the recruiting area. My neighbors nephew plays for a pretty good HS in a kind of rural area and he said that the schools HC got a call from DeBoer on Sunday morning.

I think that the areas where we saw a lot of struggle the past few years are going to be quickly solved. Label me a sunshine pumper but I am truly ecstatic about seeing what DeBoer is going to Alabama looking like next season.

Well, one thing in his favor is CNS just retired, because we all know nobody gets on that field until they can block the opposing teams DT one handed, and put his arse in the dirt ! Ammaright !

A little levity anyone ?



Maybe some laughs will loosen up the echo chamber mafia that is trying to take hold in here.

Lol. I laughed. It took Smitty 10 games before he saw real playing time because of this.

I know what you mean. I’ve thought about shutting down my internet in my phone for the rest of the day so I can stop thinking about it. Lol

It’s very possible I called you a troll. I apologize. That real troll that’s name I can’t remember had me thinking anyone who crapped on the hired was a troll.

I don’t normally pay attention to the likes but I’ve noticed that I have a dislike as soon as I post before I even refresh the page. Saint do you have me on an auto dislike? Lol

You and I learned about the dangers of echo chambers in school.

Some of these guys can only keep up in an echo chamber. It makes them feel validated and safe.

Why you feel its a great hire ? Feel like other fanbases are laughing at Bama
These moments of uncertainty and the unknown are the only time that LSU fans, and others, have hope and the opportunity to enjoy an empty laugh at Alabama, because the certainty of reality has proven to be harsh. Alabama is 29-9-2 in LSU's "feared" Baton Rouge - one of the most remarkable records in American sports.

Give them their brief moment and certainly don't conduct your business in fear of what others might think.
