Somewhat shocking to me............Roydell now gone. My opinion. Saban spoke with him and he realized might be behind Haynes and Miller next year.

Roydell should leave Alabama for the NFL, to me, this is sad. I don’t know why.

Robinson and Koht look solid. They've done well and have experience. Hopefully, at least one will emerge a superstar. My question is who backs them up.

Right now neither are big enough to be 3 down players though. They both need at least 15, if not closer to 20 pounds.

Didn't we sign two 5star edge guys last class. Keeley and another I can't remember for some reason right now.

We should be good I'd think.

Keeley and Pierre + Russaw went through last season with the OLB group. Pierre also needs to add some serious bulk. Russaw is a little bigger but short for the position. Keeley is the only guy at the position who, right now, has the measurables we usually look for.

I thought so. Just wasn't sure who.

Dude must have two PhDs by now, haha.

And living at Del Boca Vista with Hunter Renfroe, drawing social security….

I could be totally off base but considering his college career and that Derrick Henry went in the 2nd round, Roydell could very well go undrafted if he enters the draft this season. Now, I fully understand the consequences of transferring and it not working out. But I'm not sure entering the draft would be his best option compared to transferring to another school and trying to improve what little draft stock he currently has.

Are you telling me there's not one condo available in all of Del Boca Vista?!

I just checked. We have refunded earnest money to Frank and Estelle Costanza. They changed their mind. I’ll send you the paperwork.

BTW, you’ll need to provide some financials. Do you have a Wizard? It will come in handy….

No, but I have a Willard which I'm sure will be just fine.

Miami must be following the Barn's study plan.

I hate to lose Roydell, the guy is a gamer, being from Alabama you could tell that everytime he played it meant something to him wish we had more like him, I'm sure if he did come back I believe one of the three young back's would have transferred, good luck to the young man where ever he goes

 

[MemphisBamaDude]

Maybe Roydell leaving means we have good news on the Daniel Hill front.

 

[Krymsonman]

No doubt this was the case. But I do worry about their minds being on their next check rather than fully devoted to their preparation on the field. They maybe there in body but are they fully there mentally? Adults with a lot more life and maturity under their belts struggle with how much wealth and the pursuit of it dominates their thoughts, so I can only assume it isn't any easier for 18-22 year olds.

I really hope the brand didn't take over, but these guys are still very young. I wish I would have had some NIL when I was 20 years old. Maybe someone needs to explain how the better you play, the better your brand recognition. Winning a championship would do wonders for the brand. But you have to put in the effort to get there.

TE for the Hurricanes petitioning for a ninth year.

Decade of college? Miami tight end petitioning to play ninth season of college football

Miami tight end Cam McCormick started his college football career at Oregon in 2016. He's petitioning the NCAA for a ninth year of eligibility.

So, if you get your 9th year, then get hurt again, will you petition for a 10th year. I hope this guy has at least a full degree and a masters by now. Maybe you're just too brittle for college football.

 

[BamaFossil]

Sorry to see Roydell leave. He's a gamer. I wish him the best wherever he goes. Except against Bama, of course...

Could it be a numbers thing? I thought I read we were way over the 85 limit. Maybe CNS did tell him if you stay, you are #3. Who knows. Roydell gave his all every play for BAMA and I hope he lands someplace he can shine.

I remember when I was a sophomore in college. Four of the best years of my life…..

Hate to see Roydell leave. I liked him a lot!!

At this point it’s almost creepy if he tries to date any girls at school outside of grad students…😉

Concerning Taulia: I thought he broke the all time Maryland passing record (not the B1G one). If I'm mistaken that's a big feat!

Concerning Roydell: Loved his effort and heart, but I think we have studs on the bench that are ready to run past him (no pun intended) next year.
