Was Taylor ever charged for the Georgia incident? Seem like I remember that case dragging out way too long.
Pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault, battery
quote:
The domestic violence case against former Georgia and Alabama football player Jonathan Taylor was resolved earlier this month, as the defensive lineman plead guilty to misdemeanor counts of simple assault, battery and simple battery, according to documents in Athens-Clarke County Superior Court.
Taylor was sentenced to 36 months probation, fined $1,000, ordered to complete 100 hours of community service, undergo an anger management program and must have no contact with the victim.
He had faced a felony aggravated assault charge after he was alleged by police to choke and strike his girlfriend several times in July 2014 at McWhorter Hall on the University of Georgia campus. An aggravated assault felony charge can carry a sentence of 20 years of confinement.

He lost to an inferior team in January.

By all accounts, the dude was a turnover machine in scrimmages, and never did anything of note in significant game time.
Quite a stretch to assume he that he would have been the X factor in a game against a defense that was playing as good or better than any team in the country.
For most of the 2 years that Barnett was on campus we heard how well he was playing, and that he was a future star at qb and only needed to get bigger and stronger.
In a couple of scrimmages, he turned the ball over, but in the first real game vs USC, it was Hurts, not Barnett, that turned the ball over. In fact, Hurts had a problem all year long holding on to the ball.
That Clemson defense looked so good to some people because they didn't have to defend the downfield passing game. Put pressure on Hurts and he was rolling out and throwing to the sidelines.

People are pointing out the folly in putting the FG team out there on an extremely long FG while a returner is back there.
Kind of like the one in 2015 when Griffith made a similarly long kick from 50+ with an Auburn returner back there? And it was a 3-point game at that point to boot. And yes, our fatties were in on that field goal kick as well.

Kicking a 50 yarder is a lot different than kicking a 57 yard FG; the risks are damn near cut in half.

That doesn't even make sense. I am an alum of the same institution that you are.

According to you, Saban thought the worst that could happen was the ball would sail through the endzone. My body is ready for more dementia from the midget...

Then he regressed because by all accounts he was a turnover machine in scrimmages leading up to the 2016 season, and seemed to not be able to handle the pressure of competing for the starting job.

And it was Barnett that couldn't do anything on offense in that game until Hurts put us up by a bunch of touchdowns.

They also held an offense that was averaging 40 points a game to ZERO points just a week before. They looked good to some people because they were good.
Sure, Hurts didn't keep them honest with his arm, but he didn't need to. We were putting yards and points on the board at will in the first half just fine, and when Bo got hurt, our dumb dick OC changed the game plan completely. We had two other RBs absolutely could have been used to continue that same gameplan.
But no, he decided to try and put the gameplan on a true freshman QBs arm. Absolutely retarded.

Saban's biggest mistake was not paying Ritter enough to call the jump-ball "interception" a "completion" in 2011. He should have upped the advanced fee.
This is the difference between Alabama fans and LSU. Alabama fans are relatively clear-eyed and critical probably because they are in the middle of the continent, have seen a LOT of expertise. No one at Alabama is immune from criticism. HOWEVER, Alabama fans do not just carp and whine and dismiss someone as being useless and evil. They simply add critical comments. In other words, a great many actually know something about football.
LSU... good god ... say the team may struggle on the DL next year and you have blasphemed. On Tr anything slightly less than uncritical adoration gets you labeled a nega. And the sheer ignorance... I can't forget the poster who declared all Brandon Harris had to do was hit receivers coming across the middle with 15 yard passes, "on target, in stride, and in space" and LSU would go undefeated. No shite?
And then when critical comments are shut down, the crazies start the inflation. 3-star OL becomes "all that talent, all 5-stars." Wr corps becomes "stockpiled can't miss talent." Unknowns become Heisman candidates, Untested QBs become world beaters who where recruited by everyone. A secondary that underperformed and laid down because they didn't like Steele's schemes (needed run support) is the true DBU, and Steele is the problem. Excellent RBs become "once in a generation.."
And then the drug-fantasies take over. LSU is the best ever, was cheated out of multiple championships. If Okie State had won in 2011, LSU would have gone on to win three-four NC maybe in a row. And that is just the salad. The main course veers into the black holes of LSD psychosis.
When Charlie McClendon said that LSU fans were insular, isolated, and unaware of the existence of talent elsewhere, and that they should "get out more," he was speaking in the 1980s. Or was he?

Not telling Kiffin to move along after the 2015 season.

The kick six wasn't a mistake, it was a decision based on lesser of two evils. Our defense was gassed and wouldn't have stopped them in overtime. Saban knew that. In my opinion Saban's biggest mistake is his philosophy of playing key starters on special teams.

That's not what you said. You said, and I'm paraphrasing here, that it's insane for someone to put their field goal team out with a returner back. You never specified distance.

But Alabama has its own fans that get upset if criticize their favorite players. You can't even objectively discuss Jalen Hurts on some Alabama boards.

He should have at least two more national titles at BAMA than he currently does.

I don't believe that. It's not like our offense could march up and down the field at will. We were fortunate to tie the game with the pop play as it caught y'all out of position and we didn't have to grind all the way down the field because I don't think we could've put the ball in the endzone.

According to your initial logic, you're a homer because you're an alum... And now you're moving the goalposts.
