Hulkamania Saban

sorry I took it too far. I'll let the class finish up before I pass judgement.

Meh, we filled some needs and brought in some guys to build depth down the road. Look, Bama is pretty fricking loaded right now and really just needs to stockpile in a few spots. As long as we bring in some interior lineman on defense for depth, DEs for depth, fast lbs for depth and a few versatile dbs i'm happy. It was to be imagined that this class wasn't going to be so stout being that we lost only 2 juniors from a title team. Our secondary will start all 5*s except for EJ. Our offense will start all 5*s at skill positions except for Stewart. We are fricking loaded

Thank you for having the guts to say that my friend. yes, our team is stacked. And I can't wait for next season to see what we do. I just merely said "the class is WAY less powerful than years before." I have no idea why this makes everyone so mad. yes, our current depth has something to do with it, but, what I said is true regardless of the situation. It's just not a good class. 2017 should be monumental. my 3 favorites have been 2008, 2014, and 2009, and 2017 will be close to those 3 I truly believe.

Its starting to snow in Tuscaloosa

It's been snowing 3-Stars in Tuscaloosa this whole recruiting cycle.. :rotflmao: :lol:

I wasn't joking.

i don't like the lists above because Hightower and ragland aren't OLB. You have to keep them in their real positions, that's what makes it fun...

Defense

DE: A'Shawn Robinson
NG: Mt. Cody
DE: Marcel Dareus

OLB: Courtney Upshaw
MLB: Rolando McClain
MLB: CJ Mosley
OLB: Tim Williams

CB: Dre Kirkpatrick
CB: Dee Milliner
Nickel: Kareem Jackson

FS: Ha Ha Clinton-Dix
SS: Mark Barron


Offense

QB: AJ Mccarron

RB: Derrick Henry, Mark Ingram

WR: Julio Jones
WR: Amari Cooper
WR: Calvin Ridley
TE: OJ Howard

LT: Andre Smith
LG: Chance Warmack

Here is what my insiders are telling me....so here are my best guesses for where these players end up....

Jonathan Kongbo - Alabama
Ben Davis - Alabama
Rashan Gary - Michigan
Mique Juarez - UCLA
Derrick Brown - Georgia
Jeffery Simmons - Alabama
Jack Jones - Texas A&M
Mecole Hardman Jr. - Alabama
Nigel Warrior - Tennessee
Demetris Robertson - Georgia
Jeffrey McCulloch - Texas
AJ Brown - Alabama
Lyndell Wilson - Alabama
Jamel Cook - Florida State
Jaquan Yulee - Alabama
Dontavious Jackson - Alabama
Devin Asiasi - USC
Shyheim Carter - Alabama
Raekwon Davis - Mississippi State
Ahmmon Richards - Miami
Keith Gavin - Florida State
Nigel Knott - Mississippi State
Terrell Hall - Alabama

If I had to rank them as far as who has the best chance from top to bottom to start NEXT year, I'd say...

1. Blake Barnett - Kiffins boy
2. David Cornwell - Strong arm and big
3. Cooper Bateman - wasn't impressed AT ALL last season
4. Jalen Hurts - almost a guarantee to redshirt unless he comes out in spring practice looking like Vince Young

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. We could land all 25 of those if we wanted to. You're either a schtick or dumber than a sack of hammers. I'm not sure which yet.

You have around 10-11 5-Stars on that list there. All of them are flirting with other schools, and there are reports that a lot of them are leaning to other schools besides Bama. So you're sitting there telling me, that they all want to come to Bama, and they are just waiting on Saban to give the thumbs up? You're telling me we're going to end the recruiting cycle by signing ten more 5-stars?

What are we currently ranked ? 5th or 6th last I saw. Plus gave good shot at two 5 stars and several 4 stars. Think people are being a little too critical imo plus bc of those previous classes we don't need a whole lot anyway.

---

We are ranked 17th on Rivals. Why is it so hard for people to admit this class is garbage compared to 2008-2015?

17th would be great if we were Texas Tech.

It's Mid-January, and we have two 5-Star commits & seven 4-Stars. It feels like we are Auburn on a bad year. This class blows arse
