The reason why mostly all of Bama players returned and LSUs didn’t.

Championship.
LSU won the natty last year, and a lot of the guys are so happy they just didn’t feel like doing it all over again.
They were really good LSU players that deserved to go NFL don’t get me wrong, but a lot of this team playing right now and some that left/ opted out just were content on winning the natty that year, and that’s all.
The last Bama championship was what 2017?
A lot of those bama players were freshmen and some played but most didn’t and they wanted that and were hungry that’s why they stayed.
Same with Clemson they win Nattys but most of their players couldn’t walk out on Clemson after that bad taste in their mouth from LSU.
Once these players realize and when it hits them that last year is over and that if your content you will lose, then we will be ready to play real football. If not we have to wait for these wave of players to move out and start over.
Just something to get off my chest LOL.

Im certain there is some truth to this, as well as growing pains

People act like the air Fire first rounders didn’t all leave.
Bama just has crazy depth and a bunch of talented guys who could Increase their draft stock greatly with another years
There is no altruism there.

Plus they don’t want the pay cut of going to the NFL.

Not sure why the perception continues that most all Bama players returned who could have left early. They actually had six underclassmen declare for the draft - Tua, Jeudy, Ruggs, Wills, Lewis, and McKinney.
They were in better position to plug the holes left by those departures because they've been bringing in classes ranked at or near the top for the last several years.

They lose tons of underclassmen too, Saban does a great job getting backups experience and making sure they prepare like starters.
So they’re ready when it is their time.

You misspelled Challengers

There’s probably a lot of truth to your opinion, but this isn’t just a “last year/championship” problem for us. Almost every year we are one of the country leaders in underclassmen leaving early. It’s been like this for 12-15 years.

Most of LSU's run defense would have been solved with Shelvin back in the middle and anchor of defense.
Chase would have grabbed so much attention that would have made it easier on the offense.
Vincent would have helped in that nickel role.
On top of everything else you lost, you end up losing three more guys that would have likely had just as much an impact that are now players being forced to play when they might not be ready.

That’s a big problem though. Alabama is thinking about “how many championships can I win?” while according to you, LSU players are happy with one. Sucks if that’s the mentality of the team.

I agree with this partially. I think it is largely true strictly speaking of last year. But overall, Saban and Bama consistently bring back guys who would be high draft picks. They have a lot of guys declare early also of course, but no other program gets guys to come back like they do.

thank you for this refreshing new outlook on the situation

I blame BLM and the SJWs!!
Posted on 10/16/20 at 11:54 am to Tigerbait1977
They came back because Bama gave them more money dumbass.

draft stock driven by recent success is the reason so you're indirectly correct
