nice to bring in a couple of ready made older guys to help all the new kids

Agree. This saves us a redshirt burn and gives the noobs a chance to learn from someone with experience pass blocking at a draftee level.

It allows the best few of our OL recruits to play meaningful snaps, but removes the burden of needing so many of them to be instant contributors. The biggest weakness on the team last year was OL play. Our coaches have identified that and found multiple avenues to strengthen that unit.

Interesting article. Who would have thought we might have two offensive lineman drafted after year two. If QB resolves itself this could be an exciting season.

Do grad transfers get bees from Suddes?

 

[JoeCakeEater]

I think so

If it's Javon Baker, that would just be insanity.

Speculation on another forum. He has been on campus before and has tweeted back and forth with Sims. His status with Bama has seemed mysterious, at times.

Next weekend I am pulling up a side-by-side of Stingtalk and Suddes' twitter on my bigscreen.

Nice! I would have guessed it was Morton. Not sure whether he has taken an OV or not. Obviously I’m hopeful it’s Baker, since I expect Morton to sign regardless.

Yeah, Rivals not only dropped Morton out of the top 250, they dropped him to high 3 star. So it wouldnt be him, but I would expect him to be there.

So three of the projected OL starters are transfers.

Those days are about over. Glad we are back on track.

Stealing Baker would be incredible

Stealing Baker would be incredible

And his family and friends could take a quick half hour drive to see him play college football
