    Recruiting Information

    Just checked on him again and he has an official visit on Jan. 30th. Hopefully you guys will pick him up. I wish he was going to Bama, but that isn't happening. I really just want to be able to see this kid play in the SEC. If Florida offers him I think he will be a big time contributor. He is...

    Randy Johnson HOF Arizona or Seattle?

    It would make sense to me if he went with no logo.

    Braves fans, give me some good news.

    This has been the most painful off season I have ever witnessed. Tell me something good that I may have missed. Like, we signed gorgeous female beer vendors or they put a huge sign up to block the late afternoon sun for the fans in right field...

    Braves trade Evan Gattis to Astros

    I didn't understand that trade when it happened and it makes even less sense now. My best guess is they were thinking that after they got done selling the team off somebody had to be able to come in and start right away...

    How many bowl games will have less attendance this year than

    That's interesting. The private schools have such an advantage here that they actually make each student count as 1.6 students instead of one in order to "try" and even out the playing field. That way most private schools are forced to play in say a 4A division instead of the 3A division that...

    Alabama vs. Ohio State Sugar Bowl(semifinal) Jan 1,2015

    Not planting any excuses. We will still win this game lol, but a lot of people seem to think that the 3rd string QB has no chance at having a good game. I see it happening differently. I don't think he is going to have a dominant game, but I think he will make some plays and do a respectable job...

    Seriously, how does Saban do it?

    If nothing else, he should be all caught up on the dark past of Alabama athletics... :/ What a horrible chain of events.

    How many bowl games will have less attendance this year than

    My old high school team made it to the state championship game for the first time ever this year. We came up short in the end, but for the first time in a long time I had something to be excited about in high school ball. The team we played was a private school. I really don't want to sound like...

    Seriously, how does Saban do it?

    But no, that was not my point at all. That is a given that goes without saying. My point is Alabama's talent isn't so much greater than everyone else that you jump to such a unreasonable conclusion. While the ESPN talking heads may blow it up to seem like Alabama is leagues ahead of their...

    Seriously, how does Saban do it?

    Please don't mistake me for an absolutist with unrealistic ideas. Of course he is. His record even with Alabama states the obvious, Capt.

    Seriously, how does Saban do it?

    =( it saddens me that Saban will almost surely be gone by the time he starts his official visits.

    Alabama vs. Ohio State Sugar Bowl(semifinal) Jan 1,2015

    Everybody seems to think that Ohio St being forced to play their inexperienced 3rd string QB is a death sentence. As a Bama fan I am pained to remind everyone that most of Alabama's worst defensive games over the past 5 years have come against QBs they couldn't really prepare for. Our staff...

    the fade route in the end zone

    However, when Spurrier threw three fades in a row to the same receiver in the same corner of the end zone against us... only to get swatted away every time... I face palmed for SC fans.

    the fade route in the end zone

    It's a good balance of decent percentage of success and ball security. All in all one of the best plays in red zone situations.

    Alabama vs. Ohio State Sugar Bowl(semifinal) Jan 1,2015

    Did I enter the twilight zone? Is this argument from 2002 actually still going? >.<

    Seriously, how does Saban do it?

    I meant to add, with that approach you achieve an accumulation of talent that is not threatened by character flaws such as; criminal activity, selfishness and wasted days in the dog house while they are in the program. For the new recruits the writing's on the wall and a part of their decision...

    Seriously, how does Saban do it?

    I think something has to be said about the quality of person that our football program tries to go after. Their conduct has a large baring on whether they will even be considered. With that you will see young, extremely talented men with respectable character entering the program. What you get...

    Seriously, how does Saban do it?

    The last thing Alabama was put on probation for wasn't recruiting related. It was an Athletic Dept wide mistake in monitoring the distribution of textbooks. The players were able to let their friends get free books as well. Every sport was involved. The punishment happened in 2007, but the...

    Seriously, how does Saban do it?

    Have you seen the top twenty teams in recruiting the past few years? What my excited, fellow Bama fan is trying to get through your head is that in the last 4 years the SEC has had no less than 8 teams in the top 20(Rivals). 2013 actually had 9 teams and last year boasted 10 teams. To put that...

    Harbaugh is going to Michigan per radio report Fri Dec 26th

    Enough ppl have pointed out the error in this post. Harbaugh is simply a damn good football coach. College or Pros, that man is gonna win. To do what he was able to do in Stanford speaks volumes. It's a completely different beast of a task when you have to make an elite team with academic...

    What happened to all of our Draft "Busts"

    3 players made the pro bowl and were actually legit candidates. McClain could have and probably should have been a 4th imo. Oh and I expected Lacy to get a nod as well.

    Recruiting Information

    Just curious if anyone here has heard about a RB Jamarius Henderson getting an offer from ya'll. He was the RB for my old high school, Dale County High School. Broke the single season rushing record in Alabama this year. I heard something on the radio about Florida maybe offering him. Anybody...

    How is Marshall not ranked in the Top 25??

    They should be ranked at least. I agree with that much. Not gonna get on the bandwagon of giving them something for beating nobodies though.

    Game Thread: ASU @ Beavers - ESPN 10:45est/8:45mst

    Does beating Arizona State really warrant storming the field? Really? I don't care what kind of love affair the playoff committee had with them. It's still Arizona Fucking State... Have more pride in yourselves, Beavers...
