Even the older Alabama players are going to wonder who the **** the old guy is on the other side.53 is going to be starting against Bama in 8 months lol. It’s going to be biblical.
Carter gonna knock that day into next week.“Targeting for his...”
I saw what you did there.
really hope so for him because he cannot play football at this level or the nextHis *** better have a doctorate after this.
This dude is going to continue to steal reps. All I can do is laugh. Go home Roger.
I’d also have way less problems with it if we knew he was going to be depth and a leader. But Mandy is going to keep trotting him out there to make the same mistake for the 5,000th time and show no regards for accountability or a meritocracy.OK, now we’re talking. So let’s break down the hypocrisy of fans or lack thereof:
1. We don’t want guys leaving early who have NFL potential, but are not quite ready for the NFL. Why? B/c most fans, last checked, still take pride in NFLU. So seeing our boys get drafted high is a great selling point. So if they are not quite yet ready, and they can help the team, then why leave? U r not only hurting ur draft stock, but U’re hurting the team in the process & our rep
2. We absolutely do not want guys who are hurting the program w/ production or lack thereof to continue to exhaust eligibility. Why? Well, we have a tendency to play age over talent. So if seniority is hurting the progress of younger players, & said seniority is a liability to the on-field production, then yeah...it’s time to move on. It’ll be different if it was true, open competition here, but we’ve have a plethora of evidence that age supersedes talent, which is fine, when age is warranted
3. If our LBs are not in a position to overtake a LB position....well, u can’t blame talent when the guy who’s been over the LB recruiting has been here for 5 going on 6 yrs now. That entire LB room & how they move is on him, Patke, & now Baker. So; if U’re going to complain about LB talent, well......u gotta point the finger at the commonality. Ppl were so quick to point fingers at Rumph at the CB room, while praising & letting Manny & Co. skate by to our LB room. #’s r there, sure, but if the argument is the young guys are not in a position to overtake McCloud??? Oof on the talent gap.

Manny wasting scholarships. A standing scarecrow can make as many tackles as McCloud. Manny wasting off season coaching moves by keep dead weights like Rumph and Baker. A crash test Dummi standing on the sideline can make just as many gametime adjustments as Baker.
It’s one step forward 2 steps back, which puts us behind the dam eight ball again!
I wouldn’t trot him out at any position, but if he wanted to come back to push guys and know he’s not seeing the field other than an emergency, then fine. But you know that’s not going to be how this plays out.Trot him out at what position?
We allow the same thing on CIS, so y’all should be used to it...I’d also have way less problems with it if we knew he was going to be depth and a leader.

Don't disrespect toolbox Trent like that. We can only wish 53 could produce at Trent's levelI hope they only use him in that Trent Harris role.
Yeah, I don’t understand knocking the kid for coming back. He’s not going pro and he can further his education and help the team in some ways. Simpson may make him serviceable as another backup on the line. He brings experience and some leadership. If the coaches give him too many reps, as someone else said that’s on them. I get the concerns with Manny over-valuing seniority, but he’d really be doing it at his own peril, which would only hasten his exit. We should leave the kid alone. It’s a smart move on his part which is why everyone knew it was coming.Seniors coming back don’t not count against the 85 limit.

Josh Jobe is old enough to be McCloud's great uncle.Even the older Alabama players are going to wonder who the **** the old guy is on the other side.
