Former Alabama 5-star recruit enters transfer portal - al.com

That onside kick recovery vs Ole Miss was a huge play....salute to Ben

I think he and Jerrell Harris had similar pitfalls at BAMA.

It appears a lot of SEC HC's and the recruiting services rankers shit the bed on Ben.


Ben Davis, the No. 10 overall recruit in the class of 2016, said he entering the NCAA transfer portal in a Twitter post. AL.com confirmed his name appeared in the portal shortly after making the announcement.

Does this make room for To’oto’o (or however it’s spelled)?

I assume Nick had room for Henry before Ben made his decision otherwise he wouldn't be speaking with Henry and his father.

Jackson State still have room? That would be where the cool kids seem top be heading.

 

[BamaFan334]

Wow, did not expect this. I figured one more year with getting on the field would be enough after all the sitting he's done. I understand though. He graduated and wants that last chance.

Play like him too!

Best of luck to Ben. He covered his commitment to Bama. Hope he finds another gear wherever he lands.

 

[Tidestalker]

He saw some real snaps this year, so the progress is happening. Just in a tough situation with all of that talent on the roster.

I hope he finds a great fit... Kid just needs to get on the field and let it rip!

A transfer counts against initials unless it's a grad transfer.

I also hope he finds a good C-USA type team ......
Gets lots of PT...

Surely Ben Davis has graduated by now.. he isn't Tommy Boy. He should have his Masters by now...lol

Good luck to Ben. Great kid.. great family. Expectations aren't a players fault.. that is on the media and the fans. I am sure his goals were higher than what he achieved but he changed positions like two or three times to help provide depth, worked hard and stayed out of trouble. I am happy he got a great education, learned from the best coaches in the world and has an opportunity to go play one more year to see what he can accomplish.

Ben has been beat up a lot in his time at UA. Nagging stuff, not as serious as Tyler Love, but enough to drag him.

He's been as loyal to this program as any I've seen.

I believe he has a MS? Dual degree somewhere if I recall correctly.

 

[alabama mike]

I wish him well at his next stop.

 

[Davestwin]

The humility it must take to come in as a sure thing 5 Star and not play up to it ... yet stay with the program for 4 years. Says a whole lot about his character and you can bet his parents are more proud of that than they would have been for his play had he been a superstar. I so hope he has a tremendous final year of football where he lands.

 

[Elderfalsedemigod]

Farewell Ben Davis. Best wishes. May you attain the success you desire for yourself. In the eyes of this fan you have succeeded

Yet people still want to talk shit about him.

How many times have you heard about him off the field or as a bad teammate?

But hey, it's easy to snipe from the cheap seats.

I heard Texas has been talking and there is some smoke there.
