you're gonna tell me there's no someone better than the worst QB we've had in 20 years? There's gotta be Some perspective: Leaving aside the notion that Milroe is not preferable to JPW or McElroy, the "worst QB we've had in 20 years" would be the clear starter at 11 maybe 12 other schools in...

I suspect that how charitable / forgiving / tolerant we are wrt Jalen's performance correlates to which of the two motives we ascribe to him. And of course, I doubt any of us knows which it was... Or, a third option, it is neither. Milroe is the first Alabama QB, a role always in the...

See you there. Party of three (at least).

I have zero qualms about oversigning, grayshirting, or using medical scholarships so long as the player is informed and not blindsided (as appears to be the case at LSU last year). Ethical decisions are about dealing with people fairly, not oversimplified "oversigning = bad" reactionary bans...

The going rate, sir, is $200,000.

Given how the Big Ten [sic] operates, they'd probably choose Division 1 and Division A.

Practices didn't start until today, so there's not been that much to discuss. Personally, I'm looking forward to it. Should be a fun trip and a good game, so I'll do my part. Fans aside, I hope our team is ready. The Michigan State players are already talking this up as their "BCS Bowl" since...

I respectfully disagree. If there is a problem with the wildcat formation, at least with Ingram taking snaps, it lies not in its being predictable but in its execution. If the pre-snap read is correct and the line gets the correct assignment, there should always be a man advantage for the...

Too many undefeateds No NC this year. Now this team has to play for the division and then the conference. Not bad, but not history either.

Spread offense teams can, and do, have good defenses. Look at Florida, for example. If there's an appearance of spread teams having poor defense, then it's likely because most teams don't have great defenses and many teams today run some version of the spread. The spread offense's goal is to...

That's not surprising, really. Most players--especially incoming players--would have a better relationship with their recruiter/position coach than the head man, and I believe the entire staff is staying on. Vandy's schedule is pretty rough. Even matching the wins from last year might be tough...

So you're saying there were benefits involved. ;)

2010 MEDIA DAY Starts in about an hour.

To greatly oversimplify things, the SEC is dominant because of two factors: recruiting base and facilities. The first is dependent on location, the second on money. In short, from the young men who play to the old men who pay--we care more. In two years, the Pac 16 (or whatever) will put...

re: Kiffin accuses Alabama of illegal contact with USC player/ Bama denies allegations No way. USC gets a TV ban if not an outright death penalty if Kiffin lasts three seasons. And if Mike Garrett still has a job by the end of this season, it may happen.

Not so fast. The concern isn't so much keeping the schools together as it is their political backers wanting Baylor not to lose BCS-conference cash. If the A&M folk have a chance to get into the SEC, then the Baptists and Colorado can leave for the Pac-Umpteen, who'll probably swallow that...

That's odd. I don't recall hearing that many cowbells last year: YouTube- 2009 Alabama vs Mississippi State "The Silence of the Bells"

I thought it was describing a championship game as a "playoff" too. Why would there need to be special consideration for 8-0 vs 7-0 conference records if they were adding a championship game at the end of the season? Nothing about this plan makes any sense, which means the Big 10 is probably...
