A guy who is a liability on most every snap, most teams have one starter like this, who is your team's this year?

Alabama's would definitely be a member of our secondary, take your pick really, but I'll go with Eddie Jackson.

Not sure who it'll be this year but DJ Welter had a deathgrip on that award from 2012-2014

Secondary is probably the easiest position to spot and exploit weaknesses.

That being said, I'd pick CB De'Vante Harris. He can cover pretty well, but he isn't very physical. Has problems against stronger WRs. He is a Senior this year, so he needs to step up and lead by example.

It's funny, Jack Holland was actually the one who stopped Aaron Murray before crossing the goal line late in the 4th. Refs disagreed, making it necessary for Malzahn to vivisect a virgin goat on the 50 yard line to summon Azagoth from the 12th plane of torment just so we could win that game.

I thought that would have been a fitting redemption story for Holland if the refs had ruled in his favor.

Last year, it would've without a doubt been John Henson our kicker.....

But this year, I can't really think of anybody....

Really tough to say not knowing how the new starters will look but if I had to pick a returning guy it would be Lamar Louis - not sure if he'll even start again but he's the definition of average at best.

Last year Johnathan Mincy won the Holland Award by the largest margin since its inception. This year i will go with Gimel President. Got a feeling i will cringe every time he steps on the field

Not sure who this year, past few years I would have said Justin Coleman. Wasn't quite as bad last year.

Justin Bell


I'll be so happy when that fat sack of shite runs out of eligibility after this season... He had RS frosh D linemen eating his lunch every single snap of our Spring game... Seriously... Every. Single. Snap.

If Coleman Thomas starts on the OL, then him.

Should be the Chris Capps award, now and forever.

You could have put a 300 lb bag of rocks at his position and it would have been an improvement.

Do kickers count? If so Taylor Bertolet has this award locked up.

If kickers don't count, then Masterag already pointed out the guy we love to hate on. Here's Mr. Harris saying hello to Mr. Coates:

The answer for Alabama is pretty much always the place kicker.

In past years, names like Darius Winston, Eric Bennett, Julian Horton and Braylon Mitchell would immediately come to mind. But now that they're all gone, I honestly can't think of any shite starters.

Josh Williams at OLB maybe?
