    Question about Offensive linemen

    Something I had heard once was that as pro scouts go they don't particularly like "spread" offensive linemen because they "forget how" to run block. Is there any truth to this? And if so, how do teams like Florida get high end recruits on the OL? Surely someone like Saban (or others) could...

    Hargrave/Prep School - How does that work?

    Excuse my ignorance, but how does the prep school thing work? Did these kids already graduate high school and then went there for a year instead of Juco? Do these kids still have full eligibility? I've always wondered why some kids are prep school and some Juco, if it is a way around losing...

    Bama Tradition - Does it Matter or not?

    You know how we hear from our rivals and the sports media about Bama being stuck in the past and our tradtion does not matter. How recruits today are not even old enough to remember the '92 NC. Then I read this comment from Joe McKnight after his visit with Saban yesterday: link...

    Who would be a coup in this class?

    We all know the guys that are coming and we would all love to have McKnight, but who is the prospect that we may not have had a shot at before Saban came along and would be considered a surprising pick-up if we got him (other than McKnight)?

    Saban's Presser Comments - Affect Prothro?

    I was reading the presser from BOL and ran across this statement: Link: http://alabama.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=628607 Will this affect Prothro? I assumed he was continued on his scholarship after the injury, but it's pretty obvious that he is not going to play again. I know Saban is pretty...

    Best recruiting site?

    I was thinking about joining a pay recruiting site for a couple of months. Can anyone recommend the best as far as being objective and a track record of consistent evaluations? Also, price and terms would be helpful. Thanks

    For those that say: "Saban was about the money"

    This is really starting to get in my crawl. Let's Break this down into realistic long term figures. Put aside the full 32 mill for a second, he was making 4.5 million a year, which just on a yearly basis is more than the Bama offer. Wayne had man love for Saban and gave him EVERYTHING he wanted...

    The 2006 season in retrospect - Questions about the way things played out

    I was sitting and watching the WVU-Rutgers game when I noticed on the ticker at the bottom something about Hawaii being the top passing team in the nation and averaging 45+ points a game. Yeah, I know Hawaii padded their stats by playing in the WAC, but they can score regardless. I started...

    What I'd say to the national media (as if they cared what I thought)

    It’s obvious from the media reports, newspaper columns and radio/television commentaries that I (as an Alabama fan) am an overzealous, lost in the past, unreasonable expectation having idiot. It’s not a matter of question or debate, it’s a matter of fact…well based on what little facts those...

    The Bama program- Past, Present and Future (long read)

    I’m new to this board; I joined after the MSU loss to see how people would respond to what I consider one of the worst losses in Alabama football history. I’ve taken the time to read people’s opinions, read conversations and try to understand other points of view. So now I guess I’ll make my...
