Just asking... did Saban push some players who were good athletes to defense?




Marcus Spears is one example. I think he was supposed to be a TE when he 1st got here. I don't think there's a whole lot more examples though. And I think these:

1) adjusting to a new coordinator and
2) a weaker than normal def. line



are valid concerns. We'll see how it all plays out, though.

I just don't see why our D line is "weaker then normal". What is going on with that?

Alexander was the other tackle next to Dorsey on one of our strongest lines ever a few years back. Nevis looked like "The next great LSU lineman" whenever he came in that season. Woods was a 5 star guy out of high school who was supposed to be better then all of these guys. Downs....... somehow looked like he would be the best of all of these guys as a true freshman last week.

Alem made one of the "All SEC" teams last year as a back up.

Is Levingston getting pushed for that starting role?
