    The irony of improving our stats against Fournette

    Bama is #2 in rushing defense, #3 in total defense, and #7 in scoring defense

    Freshman Receivers coming along

    And with all those recruiting stars and talent, Stewart, a converted QB projected by many as a DB is making more waves than even Foster.

    ****2014 Crown Jewel Countdown: #3 - OT, Cameron Robinson****

    Like A'Shawn Robinson, a superior jumbo athlete in a sport dominated by jumbo athletes (though magazine covers disagree). Cyrus had great measurables, but this guy is a year or more ahead and more like Andre Smith than a wingspan guy like Cyrus. Cam is going to make money in the NFL as a RT or...

    Judge rules against NCAA

    The decision forbids individuals to be paid differently. The whole team has to get a fixed % based on those otherwise eligible. It will make being in the 85 bigger though. Only the 85 in football can get the % licensing deferred distribution.

    SEC Releases Rotating Opponents for 2014-2025 Seasons

    Everyone but LSU understands that the SEC bigs play each other. It use to be the Big 6 - LSU, UF, UGA, AU, Bama, TN. In 92 they ensured that these elite teams would matchup permanently, while the other slobs played each other and Arky/Sc got thrown together. A permanent A&M v. SC matchup is...

    Link: A Self-Proclaimed Changed’ Man, Michael Dyer Hoping For One Last FBS Shot

    Lucky for him, there is still room lower on the totem pole. He hasn't even touched FCS yet. Troy would be close to home for him though and they love them some castoffs. He should just go to the supplemental draft. He'll be picked in round 6-7 and make $200,000 next year on a practice squad at...

    *** QB David Cornwell Commits to Alabama ***

    Cornwell looked good in the 7 on 7. Interesting to note that the 5'11 QB looked better. At 6'5 240, I'll take Cornwell when the pads are on and they are behind 6'3 lineman. If NFL teams were drafting prospects like baseball, Cornwell would be in the hunt for a top 5 pick. He just looks the...

    Johnny Manziel Re-Creates TD Pass Against Alabama

    Good for him. It was a good game, a great play, he's never been sportsmanlike about it, and I am happy to see guys who eat in a cafeteria and live in a 500sqft space get to enjoy their fame. Same with AJ and the Aaron's 499. It isn't like he is undeserving. The Padres lowest paid player (gee...

    Link: McCarron To Drive Pace Car At Aaron's 499

    I can't say I know for fact, but I would bet my soul that Aaron's is a sponsor of the NCAA, NCAA football, and SEC football. In an interesting twist to the NCAA's amateurism rules, promoting one of their sponsors is OK as long as you don't get paid for it. Practically, the rules only apply whe...

    ***2013 Tidefans.com Crown Jewel Countdown: #8 RB Alvin Kamara***

    Reggie Bush lite. Line him up at TB or WR on any given play. Best receiving pure tailback I have seen in HS I'm a long while. Bush was 6'0, 195 at USC starting out. Kamara is 5'10 , 197 (according to above). No scat back here.

    ***2013 Tidefans.com Crown Jewel Countdown: #7 RB Altee Tenpenny***

    Re: ***2013 Tidefans.com Crown Jewel Countdown: #8 RB Altee Tenpenny*** Tenpenny is actually a lot like Yeldon. The only real difference is that TJ will drag guys at the end like Trent used to do, Altee is looking more for the home run. He will compliment Henry nicely over the years.

    Question: If you could have one recruit in this class reach his full potential who would it be?

    Rueben. All the physical tools to be Butkus and Bednarick/Nagurski award winner. No one else from this class really has that kind of ceiling.

    ***2013 Tidefans.com Crown Jewel Countdown: #3 LB Reuben Foster***

    Terrible public speaker, not even in great shape, but BORN to play football. Surest bet to play in the NFL from this class. Makes me think of Boss Bailey I just hope the lights come on while at Bama i.e. works hard in class, works out hard, etc. I just have this fear that he's a guy that...

    ***2013 Tidefans.com Crown Jewel Countdown: #2 DL A'Shawn Robinson***

    I can't even imagine predicting this guy's position. Could be an OG or OT, could grow to a NT, could be the extra DT for a couple years when we go big, could easily be a 3-4 DE. The amazing thing is how athletic he is without pads. At "the opening" he was burning OTs in padless OL/DL drills...

    ***2013 Tidefans.com Crown Jewel Countdown: #4 DE/OLB Jonathan Allen***

    More like a more athletic Upshaw to me. I actually think he will grow into a DE, but will be a pass rushing threat anywhere. You figure a 263 solid muscle 18 year old will mature into the 280 area, which is more like a 34 end, unless we morph into even more of a 4-3, to fit the athletes we have...
