re: Does 'bama's D staff need an overhaul?

bama would go a long way by recruiting a few non 6'4 255 pound LBs every year. that sounds great on the stats but when you are lined upa nd your LB is trying to cover a 4 star TE that runs a legit 4.6 on a cross route it's laughable.


the tempate to beat bama has been there forever. get the LB's in space, make them cover. can't do it. the 2011 team was about the only one I can remember that had the talent to cover like that and that team was chalk full of first rounders.


it's just few teams can do it.
