Massive bust
Thank god he didn’t come here. We would be calling for heads and 30 pages about not developing talent and how he would be a first rounder at saban and co.
But wait! There’s more!! Just back in September bama was saying that he was stepping away From the game for a medical reason and he couldn’t play football?
you mean bama spins injury too??!!
Alabama CB Nigel Knott's football career over due to medical concerns
Knott was a highly-rated four-star member of Alabama's top-ranked 2016 signing class that never quite developed like many of his classmates, redshirting his first season on campus before seeing limited action in 12 games over the past two seasons.www.google.com
But I thought they were an nfl factory that can turn rabbit pellets into diamonds? And that saban was the db whisperer?Bama is notorious for this. They get kids that are not performing up to expectation on medical hardship waivers to free up scholarships. Nick has been playing this game for years.

Yes, Saban and Bama have been doing that for years. But that kid was a RS Junior last year, Bama could have easily left him on the roster, let him finish his 4th year and not renew him.
They didn’t medical RS him until after the season began so it’s not like they needed his scholarship for another player.
By Medical RSing him they were on the hook for his education until he graduated. (Kids who get medical RS have been known to change majors and prolong their time in school)
Knott interested
I believe someone mentioned they are currently at 89 scholarships for the spring, so its no surprise a few players are getting miraculous career ending injuries before they start spring practice He would be allowed to stay in school and have all expenses paid but cannot play and would not count against the 85 cap. I am sure he wanted to play his senior year, Bama doesn't want to outright cut him by not renewing his scholarship (Bad optics), so this is a nice alternative so the kid stays in school gratis. The kid told Nick FU and put himself in the portal.
Typical playbook for Nick - spring cleaning of under-performing kids when he needs scholarships.
So true.Most Bama CB's are overrated AF, they max out quick & flame out in the league even faster.
Aside from Marlon Humphrey, I can't think of a single good Bama CB in the league.
