You lost Moses and Ray.


And McMillon. We also lost Davis and Dale for the Auburn game. 4 true freshmen starting in the middle of your defense is not good.

quote:

McMillon has been there like 7 years and has like 30 career tackles so what did you really lose with him?



Experience. Especially considering that the guy replacing him had never played LB before

Your freshmen didnt look much better in the final game than they did in the first game.

Christian Harris was excellent against Michigan and improved throughout the season. Lee didn’t really improve but he wasn’t physically ready to play

Harris had also never played MLB before.

Guess Alabama should hire someone who hasn’t coordinated a defense in over a decade.

Watching a Michael J. Fox rom-com is 'expanding knowledge'?

He was a redshirt senior LB who had been our backup for a few seasons. Christian Harris had literally never played LB before. He played CB in HS

Why would I want to do that

But thank you for confirming that “expanding knowledge” in Alabama is being able to quote terrible movies.

Aub and LSU both abused Alabama, the only ranked teams Bama faced, Bama got abused by.

From his Alabama bio:

quote:

four-star selection by all major recruiting services … listed as the No. 3 player in Louisiana and the fourth-rated inside linebacker by 247Sports


quote:

PrepStar rated him as the No. 8 linebacker


quote:

the No. 5 player in Louisiana and sixth-ranked inside linebacker in the class on the 247Composite 


Also, no mention of him playing only because of injuries:

quote:

Excelled in the fall to earn a starting role in the linebacking group

Oh so you don’t know what you’re talking about. He was ranked as an ILB because that’s what we were recruiting him as. He played CB in HS.

Also, no mention of him playing only because of injuries:


No shite, did you think they were going to write “Only played because McMillon and Moses tore their ACLs in fall camp”?

He still had to beat out Benton, Moody, and Kaho too

Which is longer, Lil Billie, a half a decade or 5 years?
