Based on the fact that he has both been an integral part of Bama's best staff since the Bear's days and having 1st hand knowledge and experience working as a mentor under Saban, don't kid yourself and think all he does is "run Saban's defense" every year he is bestowed more and more responsibility, I would even go so far as to say he is the most trusted DC Saban has ever had at any program, just because of the situation of Saban's age and the fact that he won't jump elsewhere. I'll give you a great example, you think Saban wanted to take Lance Thompson back on staff? After the way he left Saban high and dry and napalmed his bridges back to Ttown? No way in hell, however it was Kirby's call to bring him back and Saban OKed it, WHY? Because he trusts Kirby and allowed him to make the decision.



Kirby is also the LB coach, and we always have good Linebackers under Saban.

Christian Jones played wr in highschoo lthough. Plus if we didn't have him we'd still have white, bell, etc. Dunno, chalk it up to personal preference


And Kamara is not better than Tenpenny or Jones at anything but having a cool name, and even Tenpenny has him
beat there

And which position do we recruit the best? Which state do we recruit arguably the best?

He is also in charge of these aspects on the team

I think that Jones and Tenpenny are more limited to RB where Kamara can play other positions. Honestly I dont know who is better but I want them all.

To Trey: and absolutely man LOVED IT, gonna have to shoot you some

I want them all




Just a heads up, GREAT convo this morning guys on a lot of topics, I'm gonna be out of pocket the rest of the day till later on tonight, I look forward to seeing IF we land Allen what our page # eclipses to

Just a quick thought before I leave though, with UF, UGA and Bama have 1 5 star if we get our 2nd how high will we go on rankings since Mich and Tejas don't have one and we'd be the only team with 2 THEN when we land Nkemdiche in the next month or so that'll be 3!!!

This recruiting cycle is kicking arse

Have a nice day

I'm not star watching. I'm logic watching. We have 28 motherfrickers who are 5'10" 190. Kamara doesn't have any super elite skill. I like him, don't love him. Numbers are tight and if the choice is Henry or Kamara, then I'd rather have Henry because I believe he has a better chance to contribute

I'm on your side Sandkhan. Both players are great but I could see Henry being a stud H-back, TE, LB, or possibly even WR or DE if he doesn't work out at RB. Kamara looks like RB/slot WR or bust. I'd take Henry if I could only have 1 of the 2.

Ok, so who are you then since you know?

Time will tell, so in 4 years when Kamara is transferring to Georgia Southern then I'll be right here as we sign someone else

And you don't know if Saban wants Kamara or Henry more anyway, so you can cut that shite

If Henry is willing to play whatever position the coaches think he has the most potential at, I'd prefer him.

Exactly, and the thing is I think it's a higher probability that he plays rb than Kamara plays slot or rb. I don't want to shite on kamara, because I like him. But i just don't see him taking snaps from players we already have

I mean I dont think neither will play RB if they come to Bama but I think that Kamara seems ok with a position switch. Kamara would also be a good DB as well as slot. Dont think Henry wants to play anything but RB.

Kamara is Blake Sims. Good at everything. Great at nothing. Henry has skills to be great at runningback and other positions if he flames out there. But no use arguing. We'll see who the staff takes and then how it works out

My whole thing is that your saying he isnt great at anything but yet your saying Henry can be great at RB. I dont get how you can say that but yet your so quick to move Henry to another position.
