decent read on Murphy, goes a little into the DL for next year. this part in bold caught my eye - we all know this now, but I just thought it was cool for him to say it.

"I’ve gotten stronger. I’ve matured a whole lot more. This is a serious team. I’ve lost a lot of weight and I’m just getting back into the groove of things, learning how to play this type of defense. That was pretty much the hard part, learning how to play this defense.

Looking forward to this. He was an unbelievable HS player at Hoover, an incredible athlete for one so large. I'm glad things are coming together for him. Even with Cody moving on, we'll be just fine at NT with Chapman and Murphy.

With Murphy and Chapman holding down the NT position, we could get the Ivory kid and reshirt him to get a year stronger in the weightroom. Wouldn't that be scary?
