    Saban open to 2-sport athletes

    Sounds very similar to what UM is doing. To me it seems that it takes a special kid to make it work out and probably depends a lot on position, the other sport, etc... There is always a lot of debate about track athletes trying to play fooball vs football players also running track but I think...

    UT tight end injured

    So you didn't turn them in because they missed or because you know for a fact that the NCAA would have disregarded the evidence simply because you are a Bama fan? Seem the press would have a field day with any kind of proof even if the NCAA was in on the conspiracy.

    Top Five College Football Coaches

    Perhaps their coaches should not be concidered for the list... :) Was not really commenting on back to back 10 win seasons - how many times has AL or FL done that recently despite expectations - a disadvantage of playing in the SEC, but each of these programs should be able to sprinkle in the...

    Saban to be on Cover of Sports Illustrated (8-27)

    Great pub for the school - more of a lasting affect than some of the bad press that is going around now, which will die out by the time the season rolls around.

    CECIL HURT: Saban remains consistent in dealing with players

    I think he tries to be both pro Bama and pro Aub at times - makes it much easier to do his job. Don't really care for a lot of his rants, how he handles callers at times, but I do thik he has some good info at times and some of the guests like Cecil are worth hearing. In this case he thinks NS...

    My Analysis and Predictions

    Re: ALLVOL I'm sure some will disagree with me here, but I thought ARK came into this game last year trying to do everything backwards and practically gave the game to AL. They did all they could to get the passing game going and to try and outsmart MS when they should have been pounding it...

    Top Five College Football Coaches

    I like your test a bit better. I think certain coaches fit better with certain programs (and the leagues they are in). There may be some great coaches that could really excel at a mid major type school that would be out of place at a big time SEC school. There may be some highly regarded...

    My Analysis and Predictions

    I just can't see ARK being much of a threat this year. In my opinion they lost too many of the complimentary pieces (especially now with Monk being sidelined) and are going to have a rough time. If I turn out to be wrong on this it will likely be because they figured out how to effectively use...

    Is Our Offense Going to be Good or Great?

    I think the Bama O has a chance to be really good but with the SEC's overall defensive strength it may not be as nationally recognizable as some of the OOC schools. A lot also depends on how much NS tries to help out the defense. Of course if the d struggles then the O will have more...

    Rank Teams by QB postion in the SEC

    My 2cents on TT. Overhyped - no one can live up to the billing he received, however, I think he will be a tremendous player. He is going to have a great cast around him this year, solid line, fast, talented receivers, great TE's, and a platoon of RB's that should at least be servicable - I...

    Finebaum: Rivals are fearful of CNS (link)

    I just assumed he got it from this message board. Seems to be mentioned at least once in every thread..... :)

    Recruiting: Alabama lands a surprisingly solid class

    Thanks. I like this type of rating system a little better than the *. I like the way Rivals has players rated similarly in additon to their star rating - makes it easier to compare players. Where can I find the NARCAS ratings for other teams? Thanks.

    Rivals ranking: 14, Scout ranking: 34 - What gives?

    Re: Rivals ranking: 13, Scout ranking: 28 - What gives? Well if you look at Rivals, FL has the #3 pro QB and the #2 dual threat in addition to a solid JC. Just curious, in your unbiased view, who would you put ahead of us? Seem to have a pretty good DL class as well and #1 there is not the...

    Comparing Classes 2003 to Now

    Of course some of the recruiting analysts do factor in at least a little bit for work ethic and desire. Also I imagine there have been quite a few 2 and 3 star busts out there (not directed at AL but college in general).

    Comparing Classes 2003 to Now

    Scout has 6 commits listed for UF and 6 for Bama right now. Besides it would be nice to be able to have a 2 deep rotation, and who is to say that all qualify, stay healthy, and live up to their potential.

    Scout predictions for remaining undecided recruits

    Did not think the article implied that they were a lock, just their best guess as to where they would go. Just curious which ones he listed as FL you would change and to which team. Obviously FL isn't going to get all of them but you have to figure we get one of the 3 big receivers - anyones...

    Christian Smith is Walking-On at Alabama

    Re: Christian Smith ..... What a difference a year makes - seemd like while all the AS recruiting was going on last year, everyone was talking about how great he was going to be (not that he won't be). All part of the hype I guess. I thought it was odd that I had not heard much about him...

    Rivals 2007 Recruiting Team Ranking: Alabama # 16

    Re: Rivals 2007 Recruiting Team Ranking: Alabama # 20 I think part of the problem is the rankings include players who don't qualify. FSU has had quite a few high star players (if I remember correctly) that ended up in JC or prep school... Also, if you don't fill positions of need your highly...
