It was time for Les Miles to leave in 2014 and certainly in 2015. When he came back in 2016 I pretty much hated him. Now I wish he was still around and a part of the area. He was a good coach who had a ton of success here and was, if nothing else, very entertaining.
I had yttv only for espn. I canceled and got the espn unlimited app. Much cheaper and your logins don’t fail continuously like they do when you use a tv provider to watch espn app on mobile.

Indiana stole ALABAMA's manhood


No brotha, Saban stole that shite when he left.

Their rebuttal will be deboer v Kelly blah blah blah. But Kelly is gone and Deborah is still comfy in Tuscaloosa.

Freshwater is about to frick Deborah and everyone knows it, including Deborah.
I know it’s difficult, but the man said SEC players. While those 2 were good (one of them a frick ton more than the other) players, they were not SEC. Keep up DA.
It’s TM7 and anyone arguing is doing so strictly out of pettiness.

I’d say Cam Newton would be the next most electric.
It’s happening boss. Guaranteed 165 homers, we all ride to Omaha.
I was just a wee lad. Went there with my dad my uncle and my brother. I’d never heard anything that loud before and to this day It’s still the loudest.
I would recommend catching this event live.
Massive impact for freshman season was nobody knew anything about him and he didn’t start a lot. No opponent really schemed to neutralize him. He only made his name when Lane called him out after we beat ole miss. Then everyone started to scheme for him.

His sophomore season they tried moving him to inside linebacker because he wanted to and they didn’t want him to leave. That move was very shortsighted by our staff.

Turns out he’s incredibly athletic but lacks football iq. Freak athletic plays he is very suited for. Planned, logical disciplined assignments, not so much.

Fair enough. The question of what is causing this decline is certainly a reasonable question. I’m positive a lot of people are going to have a difference of opinion. The only people who actually know for sure are Paul and his staff.

This is reasonable and fair opinion. I won’t argue who is right because I don’t know. My opinion is there are compounding factors contributing to his decline in dominance.

Opponents are certainly seeing the ball better from him as their BA/OBP/SLG has all increased


And I think that data, tendencies and the fact that abs is forcing him to move the ball inside the zone more, are the cause of this. I think that abs is also why we are seeing a reduction in spin rate. The more it spins the less location you have.

Basically I’m saying that there are so many other factors at play this year that have nothing to do with his ability. And certainly not “mojo”.

Also “Mojo” is a made up word and has nothing to do with a pitcher’s ability to throw strikes and get outs.

Is it really a stupid topic?


Yeah kind of it is. Have you compared all the differences of his first 2 seasons to this year? By that I mean defense behind him, run support, the fact that abs is an actual thing now?

When you are a pitcher who paints corners you aren’t going to get all the calls you got before with abs.

I’ll add that he’s also had 2 years of tendencies for hitters and staffs to watch and study as well as his signature splinker being watched and studied.

Not to mention he’s pretty much on track to games started and strikeouts vs last year. Also a 3.62 era is pretty fricking solid and there is a lot of baseball yet to play.

Man 22’ was bad. If I remember right wasn’t Blake Money our most trusted pitcher by the end of the year? Or was that 21’?
