He is set to make a big announcement at his HS (Auburn HS) today at 2:00 PM. I don't think he would call a press conference to stay committed to BAMA. My gut tells me he will switch to AU, but he has really been talking up UGA as well. Oh well.....that sux.
Not sure of the details or how he did it, but Simms got a waiver from the NCAA and will not have to sit out a year at Virginia. He will be able to play this season. I hope he goes on to have a good career.
BOL has been doing this for the past couple of weeks. They have taken 3 players per day and told a little about them. I thought I would post some of it here for you guys to read. Maybe I won't get caught. Enjoy...
Wanted to take a second a give some kudos to Jones. This guy should go down as one of the all time greatest players in the history of BAMA Football. Barring injury, he will be only the 3rd player in BAMA history to have 10 or more starts at three different positions. As a sophomore, he was...
From BOL:
TUSCALOOSA _ The University of Alabama had six players named to watch lists announced by the Maxwell Football Club on Monday morning.
A.J. McCarron was named to his first major watch list on Monday morning, the Maxwell Award.
Quarterback A.J. McCarron and running back Eddie...
I read a post from one of the staff members on BAMAonline last night that said Foster injured his hamstring at "The Opening" camp this past weekend. Said it looked bad enough that it could be a tear. Haven't researched it today to see how bad it actually is. Something to keep an eye on.
I got so excited when they announced the match ups a couple of weeks ago. BAMA is playing @ Cincinatti. I live about 2 hours or so from Cinci. Then I looked at the date. It's the same day as the SECCG!!! Why in hell would they do that?
There is a discussion going on now about how to pay tribute to the coaches in other sports that win national championships at U of A. I think they need to add plaques or memorials, but not statues, at some type of champions plaza somewhere near BDS (all the athletic facalities are fairly...
Man is this knuckleballer having a great year. He pitched a one hitter last nite that kinda got lost because of Cain's perfect game. The only hit allowed was an infield single that Wright tried to bare-hand. He has now pitched 32 1/3 scoreless innings (Met's record).
I heard talk that they...
BAMA is looking to sweep the NCAA Golf Championships today. The BAMA women won the NCAA Championship last week and the men are in the finals with match play today vs the Horns. Good luck Tide!! RTR
BAMA has looked outstanding in the postseason. They have yet to lose a game. Got today off after going 2-0 in their first two in OKC. Anyone else keeping up w/ it?
Davota Pollard from DeKalb, MS committed to Coach Anthony Grant last nite. Pollard was ranked the 24th best HS player in the country by ESPN. By far, the biggest basketball commit in years for the Tide.
The Senior Bowl won't announce the Alabama players until next week, but according to the SEC six Crimson Tide players have received invitations. Here's the full SEC list:
Joe Adams WR/RS Arkansas
Antonio Allen SAF South Carolina
Vick Ballard RB Mississippi State
Mark Barron SAF Alabama
Jake...
Closed out the nonconference schedule w/ an impressive performance last night killing a subpar Georgia Tech team. Ready to start the SEC schedule and see what this team can do.
I'm sure you guys heard that Jones was coming back for his Sr season when he announced it last week. I was thinking about it last night and realized he could be playing his 3rd position in 3 years next season. He was All SEC guard as soph. All American tackle as a Jr and I would be willing to...

Not sure if this has been done already, but I just wanted to get a feel on who SportsHoopla Nation thought is Heisman frontrunner at this point. We can do it again the week before they announce a winner.
Note: This is who you would vote for if you had a vote. Not who you think will win it.
preseason power rankings. Looking forward to this team taking the next step!!
North Carolina, Kentucky top 2011-12 preseason power rankings - Luke Winn - SI.com
Some of you that was on Disney when Texas Tech hired TT may remember my warning to other members of the Big 12. When TT was in the SEC, he was the best "big game" coach in the conference. He would torch Florida and then turn around and lose to Kentucky or MSU or Ole Miss the next week. In...
