Speaking of 85, are we even at 85? Thought we were 82-83 range, before transfers.

Bama typically starts seasons at 85, by awarding schollies to walkons if needed to hit 85. Per the NCAA Bylaws, FBS schools must start with 85, to be eligible to use the midyear replacement option that allows for counting early enrollees against unused prior-cycle signing & initial counter limits.
