Maybe he shouldn't say anything. I was for Freeze and still am. But when he makes statements that he was recruiting and not involved in the game plan or going back and forth on to take a QB or not it gives the appearance of being in over your head.

Not better than Thorne?

My criticism is simple. He can't make his mind up. First he's all in on Thorne, then a week later he seems to pivot to he needs a QB. Did he just realize this after the bowl game? He has a 13 game sample size to judge Thorne. Now he is scrambling to find a QB.

Why uneasy? Who's gonna be brought in to challenge him

We should have went after KJ Jefferson. Rented him for a year and called it a day.

Thorne is sitting in his apartment, laughing his butt off. 🤣

Not sure it matters at this point. We don't have a QB to protect

I hope I eat these words. But , currently, we absolutely SUCK at working the transfer portal. It's like Freeze is clueless. It's astounding.

That was quick, just got to AU today LOL

We cursed lol

Just an FYI. TRobs contract at Bama expires Feb 29th. Hasn't been renewed at this time

It would only be in title. Hugh will call the shots on offense

Anyone else hearing that Ron Roberts has been fired as well?

Kinda related to the topic. Can anyone name a coach that Saban has fired since he has been at Bama? I can't think of a single one. The ones he wants to get rid of ie Kiffin and Golden got "other opportunities ". Shrewd move if it saves on a buyout although some coach's have it in their contract to get paid full money even if they take another job. For some reason Montgomery was given this kind of contract

I think Charles Kelly will be the DC. There is a reason why AU hasn't officially announced Kelly. It's because his job ain't open yet.

Yes and yes

And so it begins

He opted out of the bowl game. Didn't want to play against his future teammates

From what tea leaves I've read. Info is locked down right now. Sources aren't saying anything about coaches or transfers. This leads me to believe that negotiating is going on with portal targets including QB

Little addendum here. Players could submit papers to enter the portal up to midnight last nite. Then the compliance dept has 48 hrs before actually entering the name in the portal. That's why u see so.many announcement of players planning to enter the portal but their name doesn't show up for a day or 2. End of the weekend is the key date for Any Au player to show up in portal

That's what I'm wondering

So are u saying there aren't conversations in the nest that aren't shared on the general forum? Ive been told several times by different posters that things are discussed in the nest that the general forum isn't privy to. Not a big deal to me either way, just going off what I've been told

This is strictly a guess. But I think Cam Ward is still in play. Along with Salter

Somethings up. Everything is buttoned up. Nobody's sources are talking.

Need to spend that on a QB
