I saw that the Tn linebacker was in the portal. Would love to see him in OandB this fall. He was a monster at Tn. He surely would shore up that part of the def.
Doesn't fit the mold of our type of transfer (looking for more PT), I'm sure he's looking for an upgrade from Tennessee.I saw that the Tn linebacker was in the portal. Would love to see him in OandB this fall. He was a monster at Tn. He surely would shore up that part of the def.
I would say Ritchie Petitbon disproves that....but when you think about it, maybe he's actually evidence in favor?Yep, like I mentioned before with a potential 'Bama coach considered here, just bring the odor of the Alabama locker room, a blade of grass from their field, maybe some fibers from their uniforms.....good for 1 win per year.
Petitbon did quite well in his one year adjusting to a new team/culture/system so yeah I think he'd be evidence in favor.I would say Ritchie Petitbon disproves that....but when you think about it, maybe he's actually evidence in favor?
Yeah he was no superstar (Kramer and Green were both better players), but he was solid and reliable, and you hope that anyone who has been a player in good standing at Bama will be like that. And that does really help a team.Petitbon did quite well in his one year adjusting to a new team/culture/system so yeah I think he'd be evidence in favor.
Maybe more since we had 5 early enrollees who might be back-counted (I don't know if anyone has the intel on this).So we're at 20 total newcomers based on 247's numbers. Not sure what the roster size was at but with attrition (granted there hasn't been too much) I assume we can use the entire 5 openings for transfers/freshman?
I was under the impression that, even though the 25 additions/yr limitation is still in effect, there are currently no roster size limitations in place due to the free year from the pandemic.So we're at 20 total newcomers based on 247's numbers.

That's a great pickup. I was looking at his offer list out of high school the other night and my mouth dropped.
My understanding is that it is still a cap of 85, but your own returning seniors don't count against it.I was under the impression that, even though the 25 additions/yr limitation is still in effect, there are currently no roster size limitations in place due to the free year from the pandemic.
Believe you are correct..only the 25 Are a limit factorI was under the impression that, even though the 25 additions/yr limitation is still in effect, there are currently no roster size limitations in place due to the free year from the pandemic.
Devon Witherspoon is a pretty good DB to work with.Take Eddie Smith, Beason, and Adams that gives us three good db's for the coaches to work with. Did he get much playing time at AL? But his offer list is impressive. Now if we could get the lber out of TN that would really help.
His defense and footwork on Penn State's first play from scrimmage(75 yard td), not withstanding.Devon Witherspoon is a pretty good DB to work with.
We can blame that on the scheme and the lack of coaching from the previous regime. Adams, Smith, Beason and Witherspoon is a good start for the DB coach to work with.His defense and footwork on Penn State's first play from scrimmage(75 yard td), not withstanding.
