@mikerodak @JimmyStein_LOB I hear what Coach Saban is saying but if Kalen DeBoer doesn’t want to hear negative comments from the Bama fans, try this… Don’t get blown out three times in one season with one of them being a team that went 5-7. Start there, then come talk to me about the negative attitude

Saban: “I think what Alabama fans need to understand is they have a tremendous amount of passion and I respect that, and they have high expectations and I respect that, and I would never want to work someplace that didn’t have high expectations. But I also think there’s an element of support and positive energy that goes with having a successful program. That’s what we always had with the fans and that helped us tremendously in recruiting to get great players and it helped us develop them because the players were excited to play in front of that kind of energy and enthusiasm. "I can’t speak for our fans, but I think if they want to be successful, they need to be supportive of the people that are there right now in every way that they can. Because all the negative noise out there is not gonna help us be successful and I want to see us be successful.”

Nick Saban to @finebaum on Alabama head-coaching job: "The best traditional jobs are no longer the best traditional jobs. The people who have the most money have the best opportunity to win. That’s the way it is. Just because you have great tradition doesn’t mean if you don’t have the support to pay the players, other teams are gonna do better than you."
Mike Rodak@mikerodak

Nick Saban to @finebaum on Kalen DeBoer: "Obviously other people recognize that he had an opportunity to go to Michigan and if Alabama wanted to keep him, they had to step up and do it. It was the right thing because we would’ve lost our roster if he would’ve left."

@msouthern17 Agreed! No professional players in college sports period. Make an exception for one group then all groups should have the same opportunity.

The NCAA would implode if Judge Pruet declared this in the Charles Bediako decision: Based on the evidence there is no doubt Charles Bediako is a professional basketball player, but using the same standard so are the current players in college basketball that played in the G League and in European professional leagues. If the NCAA is unwilling to declare everyone ineligible then it would be unfair for this court to deny Mr. Bediako’s request for immediate eligibility based on the inconsistent decisions and interpretations from the NCAA of what constitutes being a professional athlete.

@CBBonFOX I have a lot of respect for Hurley but he’s wrong here at best and hypocritical at worst. He has players on his team who played professionally in Europe. There is no legal difference between that kid coming to play for UCONN and Bediako coming back to play for Alabama.

@HistorianUSA1 The traffic in my red state just keeps getting worse because people from blue states keep moving here. I wish more would leave particularly those who vote for Democrats. If they are leaving in droves please leave faster.

@Greg_Byrne @RyanCFowler If we all agree that a rule should change, Alabama should take full advantage of said rule. Then, and only then will people realize that they should change the rule.

While Coach Oats provided his perspective earlier today on Charles Bediako and the process of him becoming eligible to compete for the Crimson Tide, I wanted to follow up with some additional thoughts. I think it’s safe to say the majority of us have concerns about the state of college athletics and are all for uniformity versus inconsistencies.   There are many programs across the country with former G League and EuroLeague players on their rosters who have been deemed eligible. At the end of the day, these are men with professional basketball experience that are now playing in college. The distinctions between those cases and Charles’ situation are without real differences. A professional contract should be a professional contract. Why should a student-athlete who earned millions competing professionally overseas be eligible to return to college, while someone earning $50,000 annually in the NBA G League is not? Similarly, an athlete who leaves high school for professional basketball returning to college later is okay, while a student who entered the draft during college, perhaps based on incomplete or poor advice, may be barred. These distinctions are impossible to explain, undermine confidence in the system and do not meaningfully advance the educational mission of college athletics.   That said, we must remain competitive and act in the best interest of our teams. As Coach Oats stated, Charles is still within his five-year window, is 23 years old and started classes again this semester to work towards degree completion. He’s also not taking away any opportunities from a high school prospect or anyone else with there being a vacant roster spot.   If this particular case can help shape the future of the sport, and better regulation of college athletics as a whole, we welcome that.

@FredShalwtz_ @CoverCrimson I’m not saying the kid has no shot. I’m just making the argument that his stats are meaningless because he’s never done it at this level. I hope he turns out to be as good as Landon Dickerson. I’m pulling for him because Bama might need him.

Roster not finalized but for now, Alabama may feature only seven seniors in 2026 …Hubbard, Sabb, Woodson, Umeozulu, Thompkins, Lewis, Chergwin. Very young football team loading.

@InEdWeTrust_98 @CoverCrimson That was a fluke until I see it becoming a trend. Just like Auburn winning in 2010 was a fluke. College football has produced some strange results in the past. There will be strange results in the future. This was just the next one.

@FredShalwtz_ @CoverCrimson I have seen and played in football games for more than 50 years. Back to the Bryant era. I have seen good and bad players come and go at Alabama. You’re hyping a kid who hasn’t put on a crimson jersey and you want me to get excited? Nope. I’ll wait.

@Impactic @mikerodak @RyanCFowler You’re not wrong. Experience beats talent when talent is there. That’s the high reward. If he plays well, great! Love it. If not, if he struggles in SEC, 8 and 5 would be a good record.

@Elons29228child @AtlasMighty @mikerodak @RyanCFowler I only say his job is in jeopardy because it’s impossible to run the ball if the interior line can’t hold up. DeBoer won’t survive another season where his offense gets 2 yards a carry. They won’t have Ty to bail them out.

@LisaFitsU3 @Bamakc25 @mikerodak @RyanCFowler I don’t think that. Other than tackle, center is the most vital position on the offensive line. I’m making the assumption that they brought him in to start. If so, this is risky. If he transitions well then it looks brilliant.
