Attrition is our friend. As always, I hope this helps.

He'd love for you to call him Nicky.

The man may be small, but I get the feeling he'd go apeshit on someone and beat their arse.

There you go CPA, go to the next press conference and ask saban yourself. And when you address me, you address me as Mr. Governor.

That is the last place you will catch me. You would find with with the Bama prostitute chick before you found me at a Lord Saban press conference.

Bama is gonna do it the exact same way awburn, lsu, and all the other schools do it. Find out how your school does it and then you'll know how we do it.


dude can you really not get it? Auburn has 22 spots open, Alabama has got 12. That is 10 difference. We are obviously not going to do it the same way, as we have 10 more spots that yall. There has to be different ways of getting our kids, and your kids into school.

It's called quitting, transferring, and grayshirting.

Y'all cannot possibly be so dense as to think that we actually bypass the scholarship limit.

Thanks! Seems like a great place to talk football with other fans in the SEC...I usually just stick to the Auburn board, but I have been reading over here for a few weeks and have really enjoyed it.

Like I said

McCarron will get the Bryant Scholarship for being gay

Richardson will get the Logan Young Scholarship

Some prick will pay his own way - yeah right

Two queers will get the Saban Scholarship

Nico Johnson will get the Mike Price scholarship.

Hey Zach, it is a neverending battle against Gumps. All the other fans are cool with me, but the Gumps are like pissants, you gotta constant spray them with Raid.

ok, so bama signs 20 players (minimum) more likely 30. 3 quit, 3 transfer, and 3 grayshirt. If you sign 20, that means yall would make it by 1, but we all know it will be closer to 30. Tell me who in yalls class wants to greyshirt, and who has been offered one. The only articles that I have read about bama, is that everyone of their kids has been offered a scholarship (could be wrong on that though). just doesnt add up, is all im saying.

I don't know anyone cool with you. How many times have you been banned in your 9 months of existence? 4? 5? I heard you get the death penalty next time.

I'm not entirely sure how it will work out, either. However, I'm not worrying myself about it, because I have confidence that Saban will manage the numbers just as he did last year.

I take it you got the 76 number by adding the 9 seniors on the roster to make 85. We didn't have 85 on scholarship during the season. I don't know the exact number but by guessing it would have been closer to 81. We awarded 3 walk-ons scholarships and had two more get medical hardships. 1 more is rumored to not be able to play anymore as well as some transfer rumors. Not all that have committed are expected to qualify. I would guess that we have room to take twenty right now without anymore attrition.

Do we have to go through this every year?


-benchriders will be shown the door
-those on the injury list will be asked to transfer
-some recruits will not qualify
-some will grayshirt
-some will backcount
-some will get arrested

We did the same exact thing last year and it turned out perfect. We actually came in under the limit.

You AU fans have bigger problems to worry about right now than us.
