The secondary most likely will be very bad next year, as no one has any experience really left on the roster.

Sorry, you must have bad info, CrimsonBoz announced he was staying per his sources.



Is crimsonboz still fleecing people on the Bama board pretending to be an insider?

So basically the riches schools will now have all the talent; OR they are just going to let Bama get cleaned out of talent before they change the rules to improve the NIL system.

Has he been asking for handouts? I just remember when his fake insider arse came on the scene and he’s still trying to do it is impressive

Secondary is completely wiped out due to the portal.


Malachi Moore and Devonta Smith are staying. Also a bunch of young cats and new signees could turn out some studs. The next Caleb Downs could be in there. Speaking of Downs, he has not announced yet. Might keep him.

No, just curious how he has fleeced anyone? I could care less if he is an insider or not. People post made up shite all the time all over the boards.

Rarely have any of these players stayed after their plans are announced. If he's in the portal, his mind is made up already. He's had time to meet the new Bama staff and explore his options. He Gone

I have ZERO CLUE if he is or isn't, I don't know the man so I can't rightly speculate on that.

But this morning he told everyone he was part of the NIL package that was offered to downs lol. Granted that could be as innocent (and misleading..) as simply contributing to the schools' collecdtive like thousands of others do. But he made it sound like him a small group of trench coated low hatted people were in a room wiht the coaching staff putting deals on tables.

And Saban copied Belichick

All coaches find their style from a mentor


You won't find a bigger disparity in roster building than Saban at Alabama compared to Belichick at New England.

Saban put together a roster full of 5* players where very few transferred for playing time and many came back to Bama for another season instead of heading off to the NFL.

Belichick routinely traded their 1st round picks or picked late in the first round and when younger veteran players had hefty demands for a new contract, were traded for more picks.

The Downs news sucks. No getting around that. The rules are the rules. Sometimes they work in your favor and sometimes they dont. Bama at this time just happens to be on the wrong end now.

The days of hoarding defensive talent are over.


100%, Alabama's main edge was Saban and having the best 4-5 stars sit for 2-3 years behind NFL talent. They were okay with that because Alabama was the only show in town. But now those kids want to play right away and maximize their earnings potential and you're seeing it last few years with how spread out talent is. Alabama is just going back to a regular program and that's okay, I don't know what it's some hot take.
