Whooping our A$$, Championships, Saban, Scott Cochran, and coaching!


We have had ton of skilled players go into the NFL lately. When you take a look at the trenches, its hard to ignore the fact that we havent had many 1st or 2nd draft picks from our Defensive or Offensive Line in the last 5 or 6 years. Prior to Devin White, the only recent high round linebackers we've had were Debo (2016) and Minter (2013) who were both taken in the 2nd round.

Thats why kids like Cam Robinson, Moses, and Sopher leave to go to Bama. Bama usually have at least one projected 1st round pick every draft from their offensive line, defensive line, and at linebacker.

Quinnen Williams was a middle of the pack 4-star, 20th rated DT coming out of HS. One solid season in Tuscaloosa tuned him into a top 5 pick. You cant ignore that stuff.
