So you saying Bama will go 8-4 will make it so? Enjoy your fun

True but he is the best one by far. The turnstile that is Procter can go back to Iowa.

Probably several thousand bama fans have hit the trans portal.

haha! The rest were gone regardless of Saban being there or not. Doesn’t sound as sexy when you put it that way…


It wouldn't be a big deal if it was scrubs leaving because they can't see the field and they want PT.

Having legit All American caliber, surefire starters leave is...something else entirely.

Who besides Caleb Downs? Proctor isn’t the type Lineman Deboer’s offense needs. Too big and slow… those 2 are the only ones close to a sure thing….really just Downs.

Maybe starters…maybe. All Americans? The only reason anyone knows who Bond is is 4th and 31. Georgia fans will tell you he can’t catch…lulz. I’m just saying the sky is far from falling. The portal will open for us soon…. although it sucks, that is how business is done now. College football is broken.

If that’s the case, your entire line was too big and slow. Saban had rebuilt that line to go back to smashmouth football. I guess Deboner will have to restock that line with speed.
Reminds me of when Coach O switched to a 4-3 defense just as we finally had the right guys in place to play the 3-4. That worked out well.

Look,by no means do I think Alabama is or will fall part. But honestly, are you bragging about only "8" players hitting the portal in one week? That is NOT good however you spin it.


Weird flex.

Which 8? 4 string quarterbacks or the future to your lines and playmakers…. 8 could be nothing or could mean a lot.

LSU used to have a tryout for Walk-ons back in the 90's. So, me and half the dorm went out my freshman year. It's amazing the number of regular Joe's that actually thought they could play D1 football.

Why? We all know he is going to UGA. What is there to melt about? How about the melt when Bowl-cut is run off the field in September in T-town? That might be a melt....a big melt!
