    Keep losing secondary pieces and not adding, not great Bob.

    I thought we’d be better in the portal honestly. Very disappointing

    I don’t have a schtick, but I’m also not going to bury my head in the sand and pretend like our secondary isn’t worrisome at this point. You don’t lose this many quality guys, who were recruited by arguably the best db coach of all time, and think it’s going to be status quo.

    Grimsley
    Downs
    Amos
    Little jr
    Kite
    Woodyard
    Ricks
    Pope
    Story
    Mitchell

    The guys on BOL seem to think it doesn’t matter who we lose, replacing them with guys from places like unc Charlotte is plug and play.

    I got my anxiety about the secondary out of my system earlier today so this doesn't even phase me now :smug: Also after his off the field shenanigans involving the drugs I questioned his character and whether he was a true Bama man that bled crimson.

    Is what it is, boys.

    Things are gonna be weird for a while. Greg hasn’t steered us wrong yet, have to trust his judgement on the hires until we see for ourselves what Debo can do.

    Out of all of those guys I only care about Downs, Amos & Ricks (upside). The others might've left whether Saban retired or not.

    Strange how so much attrition seems to be focused in the defensive backfield. I think our front line will be fine, but our depth is getting decimated.

    Very true, it would’ve just been nice to keep some for depth purposes.

    I think it’s as simple as players came to play DB for Saban. With him gone, money from elsewhere weighs more.

    I think it’s probably vandy but here’s some batting averages

    Arkansas (299 home 211 away) UGA (322 home 251 away) miss st (310 h 233 away) vandy (306 home 233 away)

    for the record Alabama 321 and 298
