BOL Round Table

Ill start with WR cuz it just excites me! Our recieving corp i believe is the best its ever been in alabama history! I believe our top 4 recievers if I had to pick right now would be Christion Jones, Kevin Norwood, Kenny Bell, and Deandrew White. All 4 of these guys are electricity! Super fast, great hands, can get off and get seperation from the defenders, can block, and have great verticals! Ask the Honey Badger for instance about Kevin Norwood! LMFAO! But wait theres more! Not sure how Marvin Shinn or Danny Woodson have progressed ( which im sure they have made strides cu i mean this is bama the nfl in the making factory) We signed 3 guys this past year that are amazing talents! 5 stars Eddie Williams (6"4 210 a monster physical specimen with sub 4.5 speed), Chris Black ( A true possession reciever with speed, vertical, great hands, pretty much everything u can ask for but is a lil under weight as he needs to pack weight on and im.sure cochranis building him up but height is good at a lil over 6"0), and prolly favorite of the 3 for the future, 4 star Amari Cooper( Our deep ball guy with great speed, vertical, top notch hands, and great route running ability like chris black. Cooper is tall and lanky and reminds me of a shorter AJ Green and will be an amazing reciever for us at Bama!) Now the hard part who will be MCcarrons go to guy. He distributes the ball well but in the NC game he seemed to really like Norwood as Norwood made some key and clutch catches for us that game including making the honeh badger look bad several times. Kenny Bell is prolly the most experienced and is becoming a great reciever with good hands, vertical, blocking ability,ball skills and elusiveness and the ability to out run defenders for the long ball! Christion Jones now he is fun to watch and reminds me alot of tyrone prothro! A slot reciever with excellent elusive skills and good hands. Great at getting seperation and his learning curve was alot shorter than most as he is a true sophmore this year showing lots of promise in starting a few games for us last year. This guy can get seperation from a defender when no one else can he is great at it as it showed in the A day game when it looked as if MCcarron was just gettinv rid of the ball and jones completely left veteran Lester in his tracks to make a full speed both feet in sideline grab! He is special and it will show this year for sure and not just at reciever he will be our special teams main returner and is prolly better than Arenas was! Deandrew White is a guy I hve been waiting on to shine and I believe he will this year! Our fastest reciever and has the most ability to make u miss. Hightower praised him last year stating that at practice one day we caught a lil quick slant and made 6 or 7 first teamers on the best D in the country tied in a knot and took it to the house! Also is a very good deep route threat as he can get there in a hurry and has the vertical and excellent hands to make the grab, u throw in his elusiveness and he makes 2 ppl miss and hes vapor! Another stud star WR for 2012! If u do t believe me right now hit me back bout the time we are going to Atlanta in December and ill take a ("Wow you told is so!)" Critics how can yall say we are hurting thus far. So far we are better or just as good at every offensive position I have mentioned. Next the up and coming star H-Back position smelley played last year and TE.

Our H-Back position last year was a star go to guy and brad smelley did a good of it! That being said he now resides in Cleveland Ohio with his new Fam, The cleveland browns. Before A-Day thjs year i heard of Brent Calloway making th switch to the position. When I heard this i couldnt believe I didnt think of it before. Recruited as a HB first LB second after watching his i believe he found a position home. Has all the ball skils of a RB and now with our top notch strength and conditiining program is putting on the pounds and strength to man over the position and has all offseason to learn the position. Smelley was a seasoned veteran with heart but when it comes to overall talent, another guy couldnt have been selected to fill the spot other than Calloway! Has good hands and like i said putting on the muscle, brains, and size to block linebackers and safetys! Has excellent listed upper 4.5 speed and RB skills if he gets this down he will take the H-Back position to a whole new level! May take a few games under his belt to get comfortable but when he does he will be a machine! Now this could be ( but it wont trust me) be a bust and smelley to me even after the NC game would be our most missed but if this guy can put in the work and dedication he may one day be a top 3 round or better pick! Couldnt have picked a better guy to me to fill this void. Now at TE we return our 2 year this will be third year returning starter in Michael Williams. Now if ur a Bama fan he needs no introduction. This guy is super tall, big and rangy almost like a super fast extra tackle in the game that can catch. A seasoned veteran and a leaded for this team i look for Mike to make lots of key block and clutch key catches in our Offense this season. Also the guys bebind him have been in the system a year and are ready to step up. ( Brian Vogler and Harrison Jones). These two guys are big prototypical TEs that can recieve or block. Jones is the younger brother of forever and still starting center Barrett Jones and i eard the apple do t fall far from the tree. If thats true I expect Jones to contribute as early as this year if he learns the rope. Vogler was one of the top ranked true TEs in year before last. Decent speed, route running ability, and. Blocking. I look for Harrison and Brian to take over completely next year and be the best TE tandem in the country. The sky is the limit for these guys. Also i note that Reggie Ragland a true TE recruit and possible H-Back will be here when Fall begins and I know u cant judge a book by its cover but if hes as good as he looked on film and the raves and reports that were given about him it might be hard to keep him off the field as early as this year! ( Although he could with his speed and physicality end up at the Mike linebacker position). Either way look for him to contribute possibly early if he can get it down and work hard. Also I note that for the upcoming class Oj Howard is currently commited to us. He has the potential with his size and talent to one day be the best we ever have had! Yea H-Back wil be a learning year possibly but i really and truly think we are better there now especially talent wise than we have ever been. Not alot of depth that I know of there either thougb so we need to load up some guys or train some other recruits for the position but im telling u Reggie Ragland if put there can be the man at some point! Also with our returning beast veteran TE returning i would go no less than to say we are just as good as last year here! Thats the H-Back and TEs. Before I go to defense i wanna give some quick hits. With Phillip Sims transferring he left a scary huge black hole in the depth. U have Blake Sims who is a dual threat qb that was moved to running back that I look to be moved back to Qb. And even if Phillip Ely or true freshman Alec Morris steal the spot I think Sims needs and should be utilized as a wildcat QB! Would give OC'S fits especially if he can throw the ball well. All i do know is we cant afford for MCcarton to go down. To make it a happu note though we recently got a commitment from Cooper Bateman a top notch elite passer that is the future face I believe of the crimson tide! So as I have touched on this subject in the offensive side, seriously how can anyone with common sense think we toom a step back?! This is Alabama we dont step back we reload and move forward! We are the juggernauts and love for u critics feed us fuel to help the already hungry and motivated bama football team to stay motivated and know our destiny! TO WIN CHAMPIONSHIPS 1 AT A TIME, OVERLOOK NOONE, PREPARE EACH TIME LIKE ITS THE CHAMPIONSHIP, TO PROGRESS TO THE BEST OF THEIR ABILITY, TO STRETCH PAST OUR GOALS AND NEVER BE SATISFIED, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY TO TURN BOYS IN TO GROWN ASS MEN! WE ARE THE UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA! ROLL TIDE. Next ill prove our defense and i hope yall bama fans enjoy. THE QUEST FOR NUMBER 15 BABY

As i have already talked about offense, now i.will talk about what the critics are saying the reason we wont repeat is, DEFENSE! Before i get started i just wanna say I hope u bama hating jealous fags are reading this. I mean this is Alabama football! If we know one thing its defense. We have had a top 5 defense the past 3 years even in 2010 our so called let down year! I mean we arguably by many ppl, many ppl not even bama fans had the best defense ever in the history of college football this past season! Yea we lost 4 players to the draft in the first 35 pick (WOW) but the spots we are filling we are filli g with guys that have had starts under their belts, that have experience talent and skill! The depth at Bama right now is untouched by any team i have heard of in my life. Two years ago we were very talented but now we are depthly talented. Like in Bear Bryants days he took a guy out and put in another guy just as good with no drop off! Yea well like it or not we are back from the long sleep we had for years to true championship winning beast mode Crimson Tide form. Im bout to prove my point starting with each position and talk about the projected starters a lil depth at the position and a comparison and why we are each year a totally different team but hungry for the same thing, NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS!

Thanks for the insight. Keep on rolling with the defensive breakdown.

hey...people would read your stuff, just space it out a little better. Right now, it's just all pushed together. I tried to separate your ideas to make it more readable 0----^ ...That's the sort of "layout" that makes it easier on all the readers here, and will get you more responses and traffic... Keep up the good work!
