don’t understand how they made the DBU list lol


Produced a lot of very good DB's over the years and Champ Baily is arguably a top 5 NFL CB ever

I think we might be a little high on the LB list.

ETA

Two #1's drafted recently (Baker and Stokes) and if you wanna go way back,Jake Scott (All Pro 2X AA) and Terry Hogue (consensus AA) in '83

I’ll accept QBU for Oklahoma, well deserved.....

Seems like Oklahoma should also be RBU, Peterson, Sims, Owens, Pruitt, Washington, Mixon, Petrine, Vessels, Griffin, Murray

I know we have had a couple of good DB drafts in the past few years, but in recent memory I can't think of anyone in the past 5-10 years that has made a huge impact in the NFL.

Yep, that was wishful thinking. Rolando McClain, Donte Hightower, CJ Mosley, Reuben Foster, Reggie Ragland, Courtney Upshaw, etc, etc.

BAMA is still the home of the greatest of them all, Derrick Thomas and Lee Roy Jordan. Throw in Cornelius Bennet and Woodrow Lowe in the top 5.

In short, blowing the list for the all-time defensive line is a much less mistake than missing on Linebackers at ALABAMA.

Nick Saban has 2 positions at BAMA that have been filled with super talent throughout and has been the backbone of all that success. Linebacker and running back.
