Bring me this animal (no pause) and his brother (no pause)

He would’ve ended up on another team any way! See you next year, bum!

Qua Russaw made headlines earlier on Monday when he entered the Transfer Portal. The former five-star out of Montgomery (Ala.) Carver will leave Alabama to play where? He has yet to line up visits, but a list of schools has already reached out.

“Texas A&M, LSU, Nebraska, Ole Miss, Auburn, Tennessee, Ohio State, Georgia, Colorado, SMU, Georgia Tech, Virginia Techand Miami have all contacted Qua,” a source told On3. “Everyone wants that first visit, but nothing is set up yet.”

Will be utterly shocked If he leaves SEC.

For sure, he was pretty banged up this year too. Began the year as the starter and didn’t get his job back once he was healthy, Pierre took over.

Figured when Russaw jumped in he’d be next. Trying to remember if we had any traction with them coming out of high school?

Gotta say, putting portal period before hs signing day is intriguing.

Would a 5 star qb commit to a blue blood if they just signed a portal guy?

Greg Sankey is essentially Tim Robinson in the hot dog suit with this ****.

Would kids still enroll early? Enrolling early took off recently..

Good first step.

Would be really good with Heatherman.

That school loves producing these undersized interior monsters dont they?

Qua, no.

Alabama's 23 class is a doozy.

They signed 14 top 100 players. 7 were 5*.
6 of the 5* and 12 of the 14 have entered the portal or already transferred out (Proctor transferred and came back)

I think that 23 class was rough for many programs.

None of these players were or are game breakers. Great offenses produce explosive plays and so do great players at the skill. Damien Martinez was so good that he went in the 6th rd of the nfl draft. He was better than Fletcher and provided many more chunk runs. We arent talking about coming up big in a few spots or being functional at wr and rb. We dont scare any one at wr or rb and haven't in a long time. We have lacked speed and consistent play making at both of these positions . We haven't had an all ACC 1st team rb or wr not to mention a nationally acclaimed player at these positions. Mali is an under neath rac monster but does all his work in the short to barely intermediate pass gm. He is no dominating 3 level target. Next level wrs aren't easily erased from games and our rbs are average in the ACC. Claiborne and Brown were better by far than any one we put on the field this year. You are confusing being functional in an offense and being elite at the positions as far as production + talent.

We had the most prolific offense in UM’s history last year with a bunch of WRs who can’t sniff an NFL game. We just need one outside guy with real speed on the field to be dangerous next year.
