It is possible Alabama can compete but they are not used to the bombardment of tampering to their depth players.

They had the most talented roster in football and teams want their players. I dont understand how they can keep their quality backup QBs around to sit the bench..but they are. They have to pay more to keep them thus the AD freaking out now.

I am very much a Vanderbilt fan just as you are a Bama fan - I merely witnessed Vanderbilt win a couple of games and declared myself a lifelong fan. It’s that easy. Anchor down baby!

I believe you are right and I doubt most Bama fans are prepared for this reality.


Glad to see you’re not using one of your alternate accounts.

NIL is causing everyone to take these leaps of faith that they didn't even think they could take.

They thought they'd get caught with Chargers and wads of money.


Now that fear is gone and all-a-sudd'n....bama is playing a noon bowl game.

Vandy and LSU combined have one playoff appearance in the history of the world. Your current coach is averaging over 3 losses per season, you lost the top overall recruit to Michigan, and the top wide receiver recruit to Oregon.

No wonder you are posting from a Vandy account.

You’re so upset that you are double posting. It’s embarrassing honestly. You only have yourself to blame for this - just like with the diabetes.

The website seems to do it about once a month. It has bugs in it. No one should be surprised though.

I actually saw that NFLSU was posting again today. I wish I could upset the Alabama fan base like he does (without the unnecessary racial epithets of course).

The only way you could come to this conclusion is if you lived in a cave for the last several years. Yes Alabama has to deal with tampering and the portal but so does everyone else. And they still sign elite classes and stockpile talent.

I hope one day we can make it to the prominent status of going 0-4 in playoff games.

Alabama has paid players under the table since their existence.

Now that it’s legal they’ll never compete and Saban left as quick has he could when the tables became fair.
