Only 4 players have jumped in between Saban retiring and today
Isaiah Bond
Dezz Ricks
Antonio Kite
Shawn Murphy
Only Bond was a starter, and is leaning towards taking NIL money to head to Texas

Just noticing the similarities, don’t go off the deep end like your doppelgänger did.

There are 23 in the portal but 20 were in the portal before Saban retired so that was happening anyway so no big losses.
I know Bama fans tend to be delusional. But you think losing 23 players to the portal is “no big loss”?

There's only one Ricky LeFleur

You lie. Bama recruiting pulls in #1 or #2 for as long as I can remember and you claim you don’t know underclassmen? Do you lie to yourself about other aspects of your life?

Without concerning myself with looking up our normal churn, it feels pretty normal to me. You can go figure out if it is abnormal for me if you want because I am not concerned enough to do the leg work. Getting Bond out the portal is the only thing I think is worth fretting over...

Do the math. BAMA recruited well north of 25 recruits each year. BAMA now is adding transfers and has 3 so far. Coach Saban stated more was coming. Now, somebody has got to go and I mean a lot. Nothing new. Before the magic portal, the same was just as true and teams called it cutting the players. Now we give it a more humane term and try to make it sound like it's all the player's idea.
Teams are still cutting players because we all have to get down to 85. Thems the rules. Letting players know to get into the magic portal just sounds better.

I would think most players are going to wait to see what the new staff looks like before making a decision.

The vast majority did it before they even knew Saban was retiring. They were gone regardless and not real contributors. A lot of the guys were literal "who?" types.

It is odd that I keep seeing individual reports of this or that player entering the portal but bo overall reports in the media about how many players are going into the portal. It’s pretty standard SOP anytime a school loses its coach to hear about how many players are leaving as a result. The media silence on this reminds me of how the media ignores any negative story about the Democrats.
This is a very accurate analysis because I used to live in Alabama. The media basically ignored any good news about Auburn (good news was rare anyway but they did they have some positives). The biggest oddity was trying to find news on a negative Alabama story. My neighbor worked for a TV station in Birmingham and said if you wanted access, you had to play the UA way....comparison to Democrats today very accurate.

Plenty of table scraps for third rate programs like Auburn and Ole Miss to feast on.
There are only two that we would want to keep. One is Bond but it's not certain he is actually leave, he is talking to Texas but we will see. The other is non-player T-Rob because he was a great recruiter but it's no loss from a coaching stand-point. As I stated the others were already told by Saban to basically hit he bricks before he even announced.

I’ve heard as many as 25.
You were close. Looks like there have been 2 since DeBoer was hired.

Bond is 100% transfer to Texas per 247/sports. Florida State has picked up 4 from Bama.
