Not sure I understand... ....the non-starter charged with a misdemeanor is kicked off the team while the starter charged with a felony is suspended for an undefined time???? Oh yeah, this is UT and Fulmer rules and logic! My bad.

Tommy Mac, you sound like Coach Bryant in the '60's (I was there 61-66). We had a big tackle then, bigger than any other lineman on the team, named Steve Wright who never did start for Bama but went on to a good career in the NFL. CMS and Johnston have both said they prefer to take lean players...

Henry Smith (DT) and Chris Felder (DB) are prior recruits from the 2003 class that went the JUCO route because of academics. Both were highly rated coming out of high school and should be good additions to the team. Haven't heard how they performed in JUCO. Both should have 3 years to play two...

Spot does have a way with words, doesn't he?

Roller, I had the exact same reaction when I saw the pics. Hope he plays as good as he looks.

When Miles Brand or Dr. Witt talk about improving athletic academics and Presidents taking control and instituting reform that are being a little bit two faced and applying a double standard. Consider the following three points. 1. With a few exceptions, the major college graduation rates for...

I'm hoping that Nikita will be this year's LeRon McLain. But if not, his plan to complete JC in five semesters and graduate in Dec 2005 will give him 4 years to play three. To do that though, he will have to start JC in June. Hopefully the reason he dropped out of the Ala-Miss allstar game was...

With the qualifying situation clearing up, Marcel Stamps has been asked to report this summer rather than grayshirting. Prior reports said his 40 time was 4.55. Recently watched some old clips of him available on BOL and he looked FAST on offense and a real big time hitter on defense. His...

The scholarship available from Nic's leaving will not be available to a new recruit (which would count against the 19 initial counters for this incoming class). Instead, it will count against the total limit of 85 and only be available to a walk on who has been in the program for two years.

Heard Dr. Witt speak last night about his vision and new programs for UA. Very exciting stuff going on. Ten years from now no one will mention Sorenson in the same sentence. He said current graduation rate for incoming freshmen is 68% (defined as getting their degree in 5 years) with only 83%...

BamaTodd Good to see you posting over here. This site is generally more fun and definitely more civil than TS.com. Hope your kids are doing well.

Tidedog67, not reaching, just want to discuss something other than Memphis. RE: per capita talent, agree completely; however my point was that our total quantity was dropping relative to our neighboring states. I too would like to see us play for a NC within 10 years, maybe I'm not yet a true...

No links, but I was at the meeting and heard it first hand.

I've expected for some time that 2004 and 2005 would be our worst years due to the sanctions, so I'm not depressed over that prospect. However I did have a very disturbing though today listening to oltimers, like myself, discuss the Lakers and the Celtics. Are we destined to be like the...

The Key and Scott families will be in our prayers.

Croyles 1. Brodie is up over 200 lb now, good gain considering his injuries. Question, can new strength coach get him to 210 by August? If not, at what weight will Brodie start the season (i.e. be listed at in the program)? Keep in mind he has never weighed more than 195 until now and played...

TiderinVa, good thoughts. It could be the case that the coaching staff moved Evan Mathis to left guard beside Wesley Britt to have one really strong side to run over, with our 250 lb fullback leading the tailback through their hole. With a two tight end formation that could be our "go to"...

Two weeks ago Coach Wyatt said Bear is on track to finish and plans to return this fall. He also said that AB wants to play this fall at 315 and is already down to 330. He also said when AB wants to, he can't be blocked, and the staff needs to work on his "every play" motivation. With Bryant...

Inadell and Squall, unfortunately this is a liberal-centered issue, whether that is good or bad is open for debate. The bill of rights contained what we would describe today as liberal and conservative aspects, (i.e. free speech, and right to bear arms, amoung others). Academia today is a very...

JUCO signees have to start will two former Tide commitments, Henry Smith DT, and Chris Felder S/CB. Both should graduate JC in December and should be big contributors immediately. Since it takes two years to get linemen ready for the SEC trenches, half of our line recruits next year should be...
