🏈 Alabama defensive lineman Jamil Burroughs has entered the transfer portal

I can see how it appeared that I implied that. Didn't mean to. I have no idea who is more at fault.

I do want to say however that a typical black player's response to being challenged by an older, less virile white man yelling white southern coachspeak to them that they never hear or use in their peer group or family changes when being yelled at and challenged by a younger, buffer, black male who went through a tougher and more austere Saban program a decade ago than players endure today. Probably resorting to a few N words here and there too. Poor youth, especially black youth, can usually be triggered by superficial things like this due to how familiar it is with how they grew up.

Have we not seen a rise in player-coach conflict since former black players have trickled more into the profession??? I never remember hearing about altercations between players and white coaches. Heck, do you even hear of white players assaulting coaches, black or white???

Am I clearer now?

Maybe they should have a get right room, boxing gloves and a ref…sometimes it is best to let men handle it…. If they both chose too… or would that be hazing… that way maybe Burroughs could’ve stayed humbly with a new found sense of respect..that’s the old military way..

Rich Wingo was our S&C coach my freshman year and we had boxing gloves. If guys ever had a beef with each other, we went into the plyometrics room and straightened it out.

Dude came in as a fullback but was switched to Mike LB then went to NG!! Came out of tiny Houston Co HS in South Alabama.

And never changed out of that 34 jersey, if I recall.

@UAgrad93 it wasn't even 5 miles. Houston Co High was in Columbia, Alabama and was on the Chattahoochee River, literally on the AL/GA line. Columbia sits about 15 miles east of Dothan.

State Docks...Bank of Columbia...Ross Clark Circle...bars at the Ramada and Holiday Inns...Conestoga Steak House...boy, that was a time ago.

I went home to visit my folks this past weekend. The Conestoga is still kicking. Wagon Wheel chandelier with cob webs and a damn fine steak.

Nah I didn't whistle. I think I was quite clear. If clarity is needed however, words arranged in the form of a question are a much better retort than memes and photos.

I've got to get back down there and have them warm one up for me.
