That is elite saftey speed. |

IIRC, Keenan Davis came from the same school as Adrian Arrington and had initial interest in Michigan which was never recpirocated. However, his non-offer is only an issue now due to the change back to the pro-style offense and the loss of Stonun. Hankins' non-offer was perplexing both now and then. |

Would have been nice to see him in the class |

I think the demise of the Alabama defense may be over stated. With that being said though, I'm not sure where they'll stack rank in terms of toughest defenses we face next year. By the end of the game, they had two true freshman (Trey DePriest and lightly recruited Vinnie Sunseri) looking like All-Sec players. But this was partially due to LSU's poorly schemed and executed offense. With the fortune of catching all of Alabama's new starters the first game of the year, MSU may actually be the best defense we face next year. Thoughts? |

Mr. Rolle might end up being 0-4 against Michigan |

I think the key thing you need to keep in mind is that Inge gets paid $6.6 million. That's the root of my dislike in Brandon Inge. I find it hard to believe Tigers can't find a similarly skilled defensive 3rd baseman with a higher career average than .237 for $6.6 Million a year. Inge is an expensive option for a slightly higher fielding percentage. If I had to guess, I would bet he's one of the highest paid third baseman (if not the highest paid) in the AL Central and probably statistically the least productive
EDIT: I do think he's a great role model and positive clubhouse personality though |

And agree very much with the content. I think people tend to get caught up too much in star rankings (though I do agree there is a positive correlation between star rankings and being a good football player). I think the reason that TP was a 5 star was mostly based on his 4.3 speed (which is also another component of the media hype machine) and the fact that his high school competition in Pennsylvania was "stronger." Also, 3 years ago, the appeal of finding the next "Vince Young" was a lot stronger than it is today. |
| 3 years 39 weeks ago | Excellent acceleration |
They should play that music at the big house |
| 3 years 40 weeks ago | Van Slyke |
I also thought that Van Slyke was ahead on the depth chart too, has anyone heard anything about Kovacs before today? |
| 3 years 40 weeks ago | With the Exception of the Last Touchdown |
He didnt compound the problem by missing tackles after they connected on the the deep outs and comeback routes. Yes they scored a lot and gained a lot of yards throwing at him, but the key of making those few tackles [instead of them breaking them and housing it like last year] and making them work longer to score ultimately could have reduced the total amount of offensive possession that ND could have had. |
| 3 years 40 weeks ago | Agreed |
I don't think anyone's giving up on JT Floyd yet, I think they're merely stating that Michael Floyd is already a tough enough match up for our 5 star stud corner who had a pretty impressive opener, let alone our 3rd string option. |
| 3 years 40 weeks ago | No Koger |
Sad, looked like Mike Williams from 4-5 years ago. Also, I thought the same thing about the double pass, can't wait to spring that one |
| 3 years 40 weeks ago | Tay Odoms |
He didn't play much yesterday but he threw a nasty block to spring denard loose |
| 3 years 41 weeks ago | Looked good |
He forced the fumble, but we need to see how he reacts when he actually has to face some O lineman |
| 3 years 42 weeks ago | 1) He did nothing but voice a |
1) He did nothing but voice a simple observation. At no point did he say "Rich Rod is stupid, doesnt he know he's putting his number 2 cornerback at risk!!" Which would then warrant your bitchy response. |
| 3 years 42 weeks ago | Fought Liddell Twice |
He also defeated him in a Pride Grand Prix (different format than the UFC but the original poster was technically correct in saying that he defeated Liddell twice) |

He'll most likely wait til summer training camp is over |
| 3 years 43 weeks ago | Antonio Bass' injury was much more severe |
And Adrian Witty was able to come back and play part of his senior season and run track. Did his torn ACL scare away programs? Sure it did. But to assert that we would have offered a scholarship to a potentially useless athlete just to pick up his teammate is inaccurate. |
| 3 years 43 weeks ago | All-State |
Adrian Witty was also 1st team all-state his Junior year before the injury |
| 3 years 43 weeks ago | A Young Stevie Brown |
Same kind of early praise as an up and coming safety, pray that he goes a different direction |
| 3 years 45 weeks ago | If JT Turner doesn't qualify |
If JT Turner doesn't qualify I would expect Michael Williams to play the nickel back spot while rotating in another safety (assuming he even starts at safety). If Cissoko or Warren get hurt though, we're probably screwed given that Williams is probably not suited to play out and out corner. |

The title of your post is enough to make this post retarded |
| 4 years 2 weeks ago | Soooo....... |
Can he still play basketball too? |
| 4 years 4 weeks ago | Arguments of yours I don't get |
1) I dont know how you can say the situation is worse when player A practices with the team and doesn't think he fits into the scheme any more and leaves compared to player B who thinks he fits into the program and is trying to remain on the team and is booted off. 2) We don't need to free up scholarships, we already have enough available (in fact Rich Rod just discussed giving scholarships to walk-ons in the same interview that started this discussion) 3) You say that only Grady "CAN justify being booted from the team" I'm assuming you mean cause he's in legal trouble. So holding that constant, how many of the 15 spots that Alabama freed up last year can be "justified" by that same standard? |
| 4 years 4 weeks ago | A little early for the optimism |
I'm rooting for Dontrelle just as hard as anybody, but maybe we should A) Wait for him to string together more than 1 quality start ...before we start claiming that the tigers have the best staff in baseball. These question marks leaves the whole back end of the rotation in doubt. If we still had Jair Jurrgens then I would agree 100%. Also, as well as Rick has been pitching I worry that he will eventually hit a wall once the innings get up. I would prefer he go back down to the minors so he doesn't go the route that bondo went (Dombrowski said that Bondo being pulled up so early was the worst thing for him since he never developed a change up and has only relied on his fastball and slider) On a positive note, Edwin Jackson has been the steal of the offseason. People thought I was crazy when I said Edwin Jackson would win 15+ games during the preseason since he didnt even make the ray's starting rotation during the playoffs but you can't teach that talent. If it wasn't for our poor run support on his days he'd be close to the lead league in wins right now. |
