I’m fine with just letting everyone leave who doesn’t want to be here for whatever reason.

But our HC has shown he will kowtow to ridiculous demands so I expect we’ll continue to match demand for demand going forward.

Me I’d rather have a team of nothing but 3 stars who want to be here and work for it.

I’d take a HC with that mentality too.

We had that with Mike Shula teams and I for one don't want to return to those days so I am going to adjust the way I have been programmed to think for many years.

There’s a balance in this somewhere.

Yep, even Burton who would later become very reliable dropped easy catches that would have changed the outcome of that game.

IIRC, Burton was on the other sideline in that game...

when I posted regarding his " transfer", it just didn't make any sense.

They can’t due to class starting dates.
They pretend that it is still a College sport and not a semi-pro league

The Admissions Office at _____University says "We can make it work!".

Day1: I’m leaving, business decision.
Day2: Here to stay.

It would have made so much more sense for him to figure this out with our staff prior to entering the portal for all to see. Either way I’m glad we’re hanging on to him. I think he’s dynamic and I hate the idea of order teams coming along and buying our best players right off our roster.

 

[NoNC4Tubs]

Thought he came to Alabama after their first championship?

That was the game that was referred to, was it not?

His last game at uga was beating us in the national title game.

It's starting to feel like dealing with a crazy ex.

It was a business decision.
- Enter portal
- Get more money from Alabama (your employer)
- Leave portal

It is not unusual in the business world to interview for other positions and then ask your company to match an offer.

I have looked at this page every hour from work trying to find out any new or good news. Kinda reminds me of the days many years ago during recruiting...same thing...new style! Don't like it, but it's the new NCAA. I think we need to raid Ole Miss, Ohio State, Texas, and others...let the purge begin

I hate it came to what it came too but the alleged offer was too good not to consider..Ryan Williams and Red Morgan got the save here though.

Big win getting him to stay. Was very surprised he would consider leaving.

Hey, maybe we got our very own Travis Hunter now

Guessing the offer came from either Joey Freshwater or yeller feller...

 

[colbysullivan]

Depth at WR going into the bowl game is super thin anyway, so sure give him some reps for depth if nothing else.

Milroe only throws to Williams anyway. Silver linings, heh.

Ole Miss. It was reported by On3.

 

[Power Eye]

If Mbakwe wants to play corner and receiver, then I don't necessarily have a problem with allowing him to. I'm not going to suggest playing those positions isn't physically demanding, but at least you don't take the same beating you do as other positions.

Lane as far was we know. We will probably never know the full details which is why I am not judging him. He was tampered with and turned down an offer big enough to leave your dream school.

And never officially entered the portal fwiw.
