Recruiting Football Talk VII

[UTSuave’]

I had a bad nightmare last night. I dreamed I was at a bird sanctuary and all the birds there were zombies. It was a sparrowing experience.

Fire Barnes rite now..

 

[SweetasSoda]

No biggie...It just shocks the hell out of me to see that people didn't KNOW this.

I KNEW it. But it was still shocking to see a whole playoff team just left, and they still have another one.

This picture encompasses some of the most interesting reactions to the #1 Salute I've ever seen.

This belongs in the Louvre!

 

[knoxvol52]

They do...that is their measure of a great coach...and I don't get it either.

DeBoer may be a good coach but you're going tell me out of all those players leaving he couldn't re-recruit any of them into staying at Alabama?

Lanning,Sark, Norvell and even freaking Dabo could have kept half of them ..

Fire Barnes rite now..

Second round.

 

[knoxvol52]

Second round.

You still worship the Cookout King don't ya, it's okay just admit that you do..

Really, Byron ? I guy that you have never seen play and played over 100 years ago is one of your favorite players and one of the top 3 hitters of all time ? Are you high ? I love ya, my fellow Fulton alum, but come on, man

I really love baseball history. Reading about him was very enjoyable to me. I also read Shoeless Joe (the book that became Field of Dreams) and it just really hit me in the feels. I also love reading about Pete Reiser. Eight Men Out is also a great flick. Anyway, you don't have to agree with me, but it is who I am. We definitely disagree but I don't respect or like you any less for it. FFL

Forgot which talking head said it, but they basically called it. Said KD would be the hire but was at the highest #4/5 on the board. Said if it ever got to him he’d accept on the spot. But if you ask Josh Pate, bama knocked it out of the park with the hire and that the SEC better be put on notice.

Of course he said that LOL... if they trotted Pruitt out, there would be plenty of folks saying it was a homerun hire ! Gotta save face! But doesn't look too good on Pate right now with the mass exodus does it? Guess all those kids hitting the portal and decommitting didn't listen to Pate...

 

[barney]

maybe he had to get some academic stuff in order before signing? LSU is a fake university after all

Heupal was hired on like Jan 27th and we had like 30 guys transfer/hit the portal... No one was talking about fixing anything then... They also enjoyed feasting on the portal, picking up elite talent that helped them win (Toot, Gibbs, etc) ... STRAIGHT F every bammer cry baby three ways... they don't have a leg to stand on and deserve whatever fallout they get ... Karma for Skankey and the SEC protecting them/looking the other way while for years they blatantly bought players with cars, homes and jobs for family members, etc... SUCK.IT.

I mean, we had media people publicly celebrating our plight. So, yeah, Bama can take their medicine.

 

[volinbama256]

Hot take on Bama. They have already lost 40+ and counting players. Obviously they will backfill some this spring but what happens if they go 8-4/7-5 this season ?
Will there be a second exodus like this one? We can only hope

I have no doubt that skankey will try and protect bama as much as possible this fall, sending in death threats to the refs and their families if they don't do everything they can to help bama in their games... bookit.

Now, if things still go sideways for them-- 8-4 / 7-5, then that protection will be a one year gratis that will expire and he will move to GA and/or OK and TX as his new cash cow to protect. You can't make this up... NO DOUBT in my mind that it plays out like this... Follow the money.

See, this is BS... why would they put two SEC teams in the same region already...

Your handle leads me to believe you're living in Alabama.

I can't imagine what you've gone through for the past 20 years.

Agree with everything you've typed

except

For the love of everything Pantone 151, please spell Hype's name correct

Re: Heard

He’s just gonna show up on campus this weekend, isn’t he?

I was right.

 

[headhunter15]

What makes me happy is that now Alabama has to go out and build their brand without Saban in this new era of football. They get to see what every other program has had to deal with.

Sankey will toss Bama to the side like a working girl off of Magnolia..

He will be hugging Kirby and Sark at Texas, betcha he went a bought a Ten Gallon Hat as soon as Saban retired..

I don't think so

 

[PKT_VOL]

In 3-4 years, someone will need to do a comparison between DeBoer and Heup. Will be interesting to see who comes out of this better. Plus, we will have started from a much deeper hole (transfer/sanctions/poor performing program).

When they do it, even if there ends up being the same amount of players leaving, the remaining players at Bama are way better and DeBoer doesn't have an NCAA investigstion/future punishment hanging over his head.

What Heupel has done has been nothing short of miraculous.

 

[Tri-CitiesVol]

Is that still at Fort Polk?

AKA Ft Johnson.


I’m heading down for the first time in a couple months. Can’t wait.

Chairborne. Death from a desk.

You want to get paid properly? Don't piss me off. lol

 

[Brillovol]

The mere fact we're getting richer while the Gumps are getting poorer warms the cockles of my heart.
