Bama's incoming freshman receivers are probably the most talanted receivers on the team.

I don’t think Burton is as good as Metchie, but will probably put up similar or better numbers because he won’t be splitting numbers with a biletnikoff level guy.

Brooks is fine as a complementary guy, but not someone to make the DC scheme to stop him.

The key is to have one of Harrell/Earle/Leary/Freshmen step up as the deep speed guy to take the top off the coverages.

If one of them is a high level guy in that role Bama will be elite at WR albeit not 2019/2020 all-time elite.

Gibbs is an immediate upgrade over Robinson for what Bama is trying to do


I’m hopeful Burton and Harrell can be at least Metchie and Jameson Lite

Jermaine Burton (41 yds per game in 2021) To be fair, this guy had an absolute bum throwing to him in the SEC Championship. This year he will have a Heisman winner throwing him the ball. Should see massively improved numbers


He was just sharing time with equally talented guys, we like to spread it around so that during things, like say an NC game, we aren’t caught with a bunch of players who can’t do their job if someone is injured. It’s good coaching.

Because he knows Georgia's 300lb defenders still can't pull the ball away from him.

Jameson Williams had like 200 career yards entering last season.

Yeah I never understand Georgia fans acting like they owned Bryce Young. Dude CARVED their Greatest defense ever up in the first game and they couldn’t do anything about it. In the 2nd game he put multiple balls on crucial plays right on the money that his inexperienced recievers dropped.

I would be bragging about them having their way with our defense in the 4th quarter if I was a UGA fan.

It's a weird flex for sure. Dude straight up embarrassed their all world defense in the SECCG, and basically secured the Heisman by doing so.

It's mostly about them pretending the first game never happened.

not sure why y’all are melting so hard. One of your fans called our QB a bum, so I chose to post some funny photos from the 2nd half of the national championship game (the biggest half of his career) where he objectively played bad. He’s not immune to criticism.

The only real question about Bama this year is their OL; otherwise, they're pretty solid all the way around which makes their incoming transfers, imo, somewhat a moot problem.

Just adding Gibbs makes their transfer class a pretty big success IMO

If I'm looking at it objectively, I'd say that UGA, LSU, A&M, Tennessee, and maybe even SCjr have better WR/TE groups than Bama until we see more from their guys.



Depends on what you NEED to begin with. BAMA doesn't need much. The guys they brought in were a consensus best of who was available.

When Tennessee takes the field and many others like them, their transfers better come through or else. That's not a BAMA problem. That's a third World less talent problem. Next question?
