  1. Jacobs will be great as an all purpose back. He is a quality receiver and would be a huge asset to Allen.
  2. CB Trevon Diggs is returning to Bama for his senior year. He is an excellent player who was out this season due to injury.
  3. I am not sure why so many folks don't understand the above. Certainly Whaley had input. Did he have authority over McDermott? No way.
  4. DE Raekwon Davis has announced that he will return to Alabama. Frankly, his numbers fell this season and he looked a bit slower. I think that he has tons of talent and his decision will help the Crimson Tide and make him more money as is often the case with Bama players. His decision imo was brave and intelligent and I wish him complete success. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2807101-dl-raekwon-davis-to-forego-2019-nfl-draft-return-to-alabama-for-senior-season Absolutely! Same here!
  5. I only predict Texas because his family lives there. In terms of Locksley, you raise a great point but remember, Locksley was his 3rd OC at Alabama.
  6. I believe he would go in round 1. How do you think he would fare in the NFL? I think that he has enough enough talent, but I don't know if his body could hold up at his size. As a Bills Fan, I hope he declares. It might give us a better chance of trading down. Are defenders doing the same?
  7. You are right Yolo and I apologize. Frankly I couldn't quite fathom a person not thinking that Tua is a splendid qb but yes, we are certainly entitled to our opinions. Seriously, sorry about that.
  8. It was a matter of time. I am thankful that he stayed this year. I predict Texas.
  9. How long have you been waiting to post this? Seriously, you know a ton about football. Yours post are great and much anticipated. The above is SO beneath you. Look, Alabama got their clocks cleaned and deserved to lose no doubt. Now you want to criticize Tua, who was 2nd in the Heisman voting? Sounds like that is your problem Yolo, that he beat out your QB (and deserved to btw). LSU had a very good defense. Bama 29-LSU 0. Miss St. certainly had a top 5 defense. He beat them 21-0. The game was never in doubt and well managed. Against Georgia, Tua had a leg injury, a calf injury, and a serious ankle injury which still lingers. Again, I am NOT making excuses for the loss to Clemson. AND, I will gladly admit that he is surrounded by talent at every position which makes life easier for him. Still, this was his first full season. The kid is a fantastic QB who is smart, has a great arm. is accurate, and can (when healthy) even run. Fields? He couldn't even start for UGA and sat behind Fromme. He looks like more of a gadget player/running qb to me than someone who will ever be in a class with Tua. Perhaps I'm wrong. Either way, I have no axe to grind (ahem) and sincerely wish the Buckeyes and you personally good luck.......until if and when you play the Crimson Tide.
  10. Do you play Purdue or Iowa?
  11. Congrats to Clemson on a very impressive, well deserved victory. Thanks to the players who played their last game in Crimson. Thanks to Coach Saban, the GOAT. To the returning players: not to worry, the Crimson Tide isn't going any place but back on top. ROLL TIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  12. Come within 28 points to Iowa or Purdue and it just might happen. They should have replaced Bama with Purdue?
  13. By far. Even when the Bills are awful, Bills fans are great. Imo Bills Fans, as a group, are some of the most loyal and the funniest people I have ever been around.
  14. I know right? It was like watching Orlando Pace, Erik Allen, and Steve Hutchinson, Gene Upshaw, and Dwight Stephenson out there, all at the same time. Love your posts Brother but that was over the top. They were good to a little better than average.
  15. Oh I do agree, but that Sir is a low bar indeed.
  16. Completely true and he walked in the door 100% ready to go.
  17. Maybe you are right. It might be me, and I'm being serious. That said, he really should cut down on the clapping imo. It appears to be a nervous tick at this point. I have never seen anyone clap that much in any circumstance. That would be me if the Bills win a Super Bowl.
  18. Very similar situation. He got fewer reps because the secondary was just so stacked. I don't remember his combine numbers either. I did read an article in which Calvin Ridley praised him. As I recall he was a walk on, or at least he was not highly recruited. VERY few players make the Alabama team under these conditions. He worked his way up. Btw Saban of course has a defensive backs assistant but is heavily involved in coaching the defensive backs. Some say that he is coaching the players AND the assistant coach. He has jokingly said several times that if the jobs paid the same he would still be a defensive backs assistant, which was his start in coaching.
  19. Remember what happened to Luck? They beat him half to death. Now he seems to have a great OL and the Colts look like a Super Bowl contender.
  20. Well, there ya go. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockholm_syndrome
  21. I have been posting this for 20 years. As much as we need blocking, don't count on it. A first round corner would absolutely not shock me. In fact if my life depended on making the right guess, I would expect to say hello to the corner from LSU at #9. McClapper passed on Mahomes and Watson to draft a corner. Why wouldn't he pass on a blocker?
  22. The Bills sure could use a big tough guard.
  23. That was a good call btw. He has done a tremendous job at Bama.
