Pretty cool to see this kind of stuff at any school.


I agree.

But let's use this thread to shite on Bama and Saban anyway.

Bama and saban deserve to be shite on here.

Saban cuts a dozen dudes a year that could have gone to other schools on full scholarships and made a difference. And he does it intentionally.

He picked a good looking white dude for his poster. It is an advertisement and pr move for saban. Well thought out in advance. Published and reported right before signing day for obvious reasons.

Seriously...

1. This never happens with saban

2. They just signed Taylor and look like dirtbags for taking a violent criminal

3. Signing day is weeks away

4. Bama doesn't have enough spots as it is

5. Every other school does this in August when they know they have spots left

6. A dozen current bama players, many of who probably need the scholly more will have to pack their bags and leave town after tryouts in the spring probably don't like this move.

Kid is just an advertisement for saban to point to and that is about it. Kinda funny imo.

You're coming apart because of a walk-on getting a scholarship.

Let that sink in, then think about the decisions you've made to bring you to this point in your life.

I think his memoirs will show that his time at community college made him so bitter and angry.

Fwiw, I think community college is great and you can get a fantastic education at one. Let the hate go, TiM.

So is this a six month scholarship that can be used this semester? Probable became available because of early entry to the pros?

So what you are telling us is that you are so insecure about a bunch of internet tards viewing Saban as a heartless monster who will do anything to win that you felt the need to post this to show he really does have a heart.

According to the SECR, Saban takes advantage of the "process" and cuts fully capable 4 and 5* scholarship athletes to make room for better 4 and 5* scholarship athletes.

Funny how this thread brought out the three biggest tin foil hat wearing, ITAT barners on this board.

This is about the young man and his accomplishment. Why bring Saban into it?

As the expert on insecurity you should recognize it immediately.

I'm shocked and hurt by the cynicism on this board.
