-Tua: i think he wants to win a heisman and go out on top. that being said, he’s risking an awful lot. Initially, I said no, but I think he’s coming back now.

-Harris: Gone. He knows this offense doesn’t revolve around the running game like it did during the Henry, Richardson, Ingram days.

-Jeudy: Gone. That look on his face during the award ceremony during Saban’s speech said it all. He’s a mid first rounder whether Saban says it or not. Another factor in his decision is...

-Ruggs: tough one. I’d say he was coming back before the injury, but now I think he’s gone.

-DeVonta: Returns. His stock can skyrocket with JJ and Ruggs leaving and he knows it.

-Leatherwood: Returns. Again, draft stock will likely rise if Tua can produce and stay healthy.



Defense:

-It doesn’t really matter outside of Dylan Moses, but Xavier is likely gone.

Yeah Xaviers gone. As bad as this defense was this year I like our depth next year because they’ve all got great experience. That said Shane Lee is an absolute liability in today’s game. He is built like LB should have been prior to 2012. He is a big physical slow kid. Anything outside of protecting A gap and he’s two steps behind.

Saban must have arbitrarily picked the designation of “only one top 15 pick” knowing there are 3-4 guys in that 16-32 range.

Jeudy, Ruggs, McKinney, and Leatherwood are all slotted in that range. They should go based on Saban’s prior statements that guys with first round grades should go, but now conveniently it seems only guys with “top 15” grades should go.

They may hang onto 1-2 of these guys but most will go.

This has gotta be the most coonass obsessed thread yet! Half the other teams' members of this board don't take as much interest in their own team as the coonasses do in Alabama!

To not troll and give a rather non-bias opinion.....

Bama seems to have studied the LSU blueprint this year and will attempt to mimic that.

1. Keep QB experience
2. Keep every last defense player you can
3. Strengthen enough to stop getting slaughtered(defensively) on big plays so the offense can return fire.
4. Refine the running game.

I sense a coaching assistant hire in the offseason.

Hopefully all of them.

One of the softest groups I’ve watched in a while.
