I don't see Allen being a Oats type pg



Oats said during a press conference “we’ve had to play Amari out of position. He’s really a point guard and we’ve had to play him at forward because of injuries and we have better depth at guard”

If Amari comes back he will be playing the point a lot. You can tell by the recruits and transfers we’re bringing in.
Self important bullshite finds a new threshold every day.
This is true, but there’s also just a lot more transfers now. Like if Sears or Nelson were put in a time machine and hit the portal today they would both be significantly lower.
NCAA be like: “First we need to know if you’re going to Alabama before we grant you more eligibility”

put their Logo on the 25yd line at BDS and on our Football and basketball jerseys if Byrne would let them. Enough to buy us a Football and Basketball team


Gross. I’d rather the sport die

Install a $10 NIL fee to every football ticket sold. That’s 100,000 x 10….which is $1M a home game x 7 home games which is $7M a year extra



This would be fine. Also Wisconsin sells an NiL beer at its games. $2 from every purchase goes directly to NiL. That would be a solid idea.

Well he’s got some problems because several markets are drawing like absolute shite and they aren’t getting the tv ratings the Stallions get at all. The UFL needs Birmingham to be strong.

Just from reading the tea leaves it sounds like the money being thrown around this offseason has ticked up considerably from just the last few years. I can see a scenario where our basketball NIL scheme is designed to tick up with "inflation", but if they presume a year over year increase of 5-10% and one year it shoots up 25-30%, which is going to leave us totally fricked.



Have to assume this will end at some point. Are rich people really going to keep funding college sports to this level? Eventually they’ll get tired to throwing millions down the toilet you’d think.

We were all 19-20 years old at some point. Like you wouldn't do the same going for life changing money.


They’re also getting life changing money at Alabama and I guess that’s where the frustration sets in.

If you’re Aiden Sherrell and this staff brought you in, developed you, you’ve bonded with teammates and community. You were paid NiL for 2 years and let’s say Alabama is offering you a Million dollars guaranteed plus hopefully additional legit NiL opportunities vs some other school offering you 1.5 million guaranteed


Number 1, that million is going to spend a lot better in Alabama than a million will spend a lot of other places and 2 at a certain point you should already be set for life. I can say with all sincerity that loyalty would matter to me if the dollar figures were close.

Have to say it I’m fearful we are once again a year behind in our NIL funding. We gave Oats enough to be competitive in last years portal without anticipating the inflation of this years. It’s on Byrne IMO. He has done a piss poor job in Football and Basketball NIL.


Have to have people willing and able to pay it. We don’t have the richest donors and we have a lot of people who don’t want to chip in.
It’s impressive in a way to blow three straight games almost identically.
Put in Vaughn to pinch hit. He strikes out. Screws up an easy pick off that would’ve been a 3rd out. Then can’t field the next ball and allows a run.

Absolute arse
2nd and 3rd with no outs and score nothing is unbelievably bad.
Upchurch coming back out. Kinda surprised. He’s creeping up in the pitch count higher than he normally does.

Looking great but they were hitting him last inning
Absolutely! Let’s make it happen :cheers:

My family is all still there so I come back a good bit.
As Ichiro would say, it’s hotter than two rats fricking in a wool sock out here.
