re: Tide Football Thread in honor of TidalSurge

Haynes should have played more in the Rose Bowl and the offense should have focused on using him. He is easily Alabama's best RB. Saban knows this, which is why he played him relatively early as he realized Alabama was in a dogfight, so he needed his best weapons. Then when it looked like Alabama had gained control of the game, he resorted to his "old reliables", so no more Haynes. Unless there was an injury. Haynes is just a big-time runner and player.

Who made the call to insert 22?
Who made the call to remove 22?

Made no sense. 22 and 26 are light years better than 5 and 2.

Trezmen Marshall to the draft per Charlie Potter

Here is a complete breakdown of our roster in 2024 so far. I don’t have Ryan Williams or QB Reese because they have not signed officially. I think Ryan will be in this class but just being careful not to jinx it really. When and if they sign I’ll edit. I don’t have Burton, Marshall or Jase on here because I’m assuming they leave. If anything changes I can update as we go along.

Anyone know how the russaw kid looked in practice this year? He got a possibility of starting?

Just my opinion, 2 and 22 should've been getting all the 2nd half snaps at tailback. 22 was on a heater and 2 was playing his best game of his career.

---

Its so frustrating thinking about how effectively 22, 2, and 26(with his 1 carry for 11 yards) were running on them and how we kept going shotgun for Milroe to drop back for a pass, or throw quick outs on the perimeter which Michigan was eating up all game.

I’m excited to see Caleb Odom get some passes. He’s a bit on the lean side right now but he is so talented.

With Trezmen Marshall leaving for the NFL, I could see Alexander getting plenty of reps at ILB with Lawson and Campbell... but who knows. We have a crazy amount of young talent at EDGE. How they develop may determine where Alexander plays next season.

He was our worst LB this year... I'm not sure I understand the rationale behind this decision. I will say this - I'm not sad. He busted almost every coverage he was responsible for this year.

---

None of our LBs were functional for large parts of the UM game.

Watch the first half and track how often Campbell and Lawson are running around with no idea what to do. They had us tied in knots for whatever reason with their rushing attack and it led to mass chaos in our short pass coverage. It was Auburn all over again.
