re: With half of Auburn's roster, now including Cam Coleman, in the portal - update on this?

And Auburn still can’t beat Alabama.

now including Cam Coleman

That one hurts. He’s already the top player in the portal. Auburn is going to have to add lots of players in this upcoming portal.

To be fair, Auburn hasn't declined either! They are right where they were at the end of the 2023 as well..........losing season, no real signs of hope.

So Alabama didn't lose 8 games in Saban's first two seasons? Alabama went 19-8 in Saban's first two seasons.

We were talking about Saban’s last two years at alabama where he won an SEC Championship and didn’t have 8 losses.

Then DeBose came around is already up to back to back 3 loss seasons with no titles.

That’s hilarious, though, pretending that Saban’s 2007 Shula roster is in the same galaxy as DeBose’s 2024 Saban roster.

Uh, excuse me, did you not see tDecline thread?

Even with the decline that roster isn’t in the same galaxy as 2007. That’s not even worthy of discussion.

Deboer has as many losses in two seasons at Alabama as Harsin had in his first season at Auburn. Or his second season at Auburn. Or Freeze’s first season at Auburn. Or his second season at Auburn. Or his third season at Auburn.

Whatever Oregon decides he needs to end up there

Ole Miss is losing Stribling, Wallace and Wright. We have some cap space. I believe we're kicking the tires with Eugene Wilson as well.

So your "gotcha" moment is that Alabama isn't as good as they were when the greatest coach in the history of the sport was still running the team? Wow, what other bold predictions do you want to throw out there, Nostradumbass? I believe all Alabama fans would understand and agree with that statement, while also saying that we are pretty comfortable with the level that it appears DeBoer is going to have the program at going forward.

But you're being intellectually dishonest here and you know it. You were wanting to dance on Alabama's grave believing that we would implode once Saban retired. By "tDecline" you meant a total collapse, not a slight regression from clear-cut best team in the country to one of the 6 or 7 best teams in the country.
