Good to hear Simpson seems to be taking advantage of his opportunity. Some people forget he was a 5 star recruit for a reason. Hoping he has a Mac Jones type season. You gotta pull for the guys that stick around and wait for their opportunity instead of transferring out at the first sign of adversity in this day and age.


I would say thats a really good sign of who our QB is going to be. Someone said something very similar in a previous post in this thread; but these players know or will know who the guy is long before any of us. I'd say this is them possibly telling us.
My wife was an RN for hospice for several years...from what I understand, at his age, that's a death sentence. Hopefully not, but not many make it through that.
How do two line judges both show first down and not say first down…they are blatant with the chiefs glaze
It’s almost painful watching the refs in a KC game. If you breathe hard toward mahomes KC gets a first down.

told me Oatis didn't like how lax the new regime was. Said at away games, every minute was scheduled under Saban. Team ate breakfast, lunch, dinner together, and there were walk throughs, team meetings, and position meetings throughout the day. Said under Deboer the entire day is a free for all after breakfast. Every man for himself. And It showed, but hey, the players love the new vibe and music at practice.


It’s almost like 18-22 year olds need structure in their lives. Wild!

Would he change positions in the NFL? Scared of contact, fumbles, runs out of bounds ... Where would you like to try him?


Imagine spending a year or two teaching him how to kick. He doesn’t have to get hit, doesn’t have to read the field, and every now and then you throw him a bone with a fake. Foolproof plan
Can someone, anyone explain how you watch the Bama game against Michigan, and then the Ole Miss game and logically explain how you take Milroe over Jackson Dart? For the life of me I cant understand it.

I was telling my wife tonight; hindsight being 20/20. I’d loved to have had him.
Twas I. can confirm my brother worked for his dad and one of my wife's good friends is very close with his mother. I am on the phone with my brother currently and he said Amaris dad is one of the biggest Bammer men he knows.
Eh I get that. Hate it though. My brother was a functioning addict for about 8 years. He is five years sober now and doing the best he has ever done. I guess I have a soft spot in that regard. I would love to have Feld though. Intense dude that players love. Someone that has a bit of fire that may be a good addition to having a more passive coach.
To break away from some of the Grubb stuff, I was thinking yesterday; I would'nt mind at all to bring back Cochran to some capacity. The players loved him and injuries aside, our guys looked bigger and stronger when he was there.
I think Saab has said he is coming back.
I wasn’t sure how credible the sources were and most of it is, “Grubb expected to be let go, is he coming back to Tuscaloosa?” Just rumor stuff from accounts I’m unsure of.
Starting to see the Ryan grubb rumors heating up on social media.

re: QB situation next year

I've probably been the biggest Ty supporter here, but if he doesn't win the job, then so be it. I want whoever is best. I also think Deboer is in a better situation next year and won't absolutely refuse to give someone else a shot if the starter isn't getting it done.

All that said, I think Ty wins the job fairly easily. There's a reason he's stuck around and it isn't because he hasn't had plenty of other offers.


I have a feeling Ty wins it as well. I think you're spot on. He could've left many times and stuck it out for a reason. I have a sneaky suspicion we are going to have Mac Jones Flashbacks with Ty at the helm. Everyone will expect him to kind of placehold for the young hot shot QB coming in; and he will have a really nice year and solidify himself as QB1 early. Is his anything more than a hunch? No. Is this probably wishful thinking? Yes. However, there are some similarities.
According to X there is about 3K post just thrashing the guy. Apparently they didn't have one pro bowler on offense with Geno Smith, DK, Locket, and a few other of the fan favorites. They speak on there like his firing is a very sure thing. Now this is just fans, so take it for what its worth.
Just searched his name on twitter, and he apparently will almost certainly be fired this year. Seahawks fans really hate that guy lol

Hubbard worked his way to being one of my favorites this year. Dude is an absolute thumper. Really the only highlight of the bowl was that dude laying wood on folks.

We saw Ryan Williams start the season on fire and literally phase out with lazy routes, dropped balls and lack of effort blocking. We also saw #4 from OSU begin the season like Ryan but just get better and better


Got a hold of my nephew to see if they still talk. He said that when he (Armani) went to college went “Hollywood”. So it may just be an attitude thing. He said out of all his buddies getting recruited or playing, Jefferson is the only one he doesn’t talk to now.
