No worries man... there's a lot going on and some news gets buried quick in the replies. Armstrong is a good hire though... One of those young guys who is shooting up the ranks and is really bright. Also think it is important that he's a guy that wanted a job at Alabama... worked his ass off and now has it. Would bet the house that he's going to be an elite recruiter very soon too.

Very much so, he gets along very well with his players and has that ability and charm that will get him in the door with the family. I honestly expect big things from him in the future.

Saban's focus is also heavily on recruiting right now. One of those tasks he can back burner and still get done, the other he can't really afford to as it is the lifeblood of the program. At this point, I don't believe it is anyone's job to accept yet, and other staff movement is still in play as well.

Will not read the article as I simply couldn’t care less what Finebaum has to say about anything going on at Alabama or anywhere else for that matter.

You're right. Recruiting is always going to be the most important thing to a program. And I'm sure Saban has been in talks with a few of his candidates. But, this waiting patiently is starting to take a toll on me.

Saban's working hard on 2024 already. Love it, shows he's determined even more than before.

Question: how is he effectively recruiting when they don’t have coordinators? If I’m a big time player, I want to know who is going to be calling the plays and how that affects me.

I think people Trust that Saban is going to be able to get them to the next level even if the OC/DC aren't decided. That being said, I think once the dead period hits at the end of the month we will have some news on those subjects either then or shortly after.

Probably more of an assuring message and discussing what Alabama can do for them academic and for future potential. Sittinf and reviewing film with coaches and such will come over Summer I imagine.

How does a tree grow without knowing how much rain and sun will be in the future? You have to start by planting a seed. There’s plenty of time before the next signing period.

Saban points out what they have been in the past and what they will continue to be and tells the kids how they will fit into the system, not how we will build around them. Trust the PROCESS "young grasshopper!"

That article was honestly beyond stupid. I wish I could have my minute of my life back

I wonder if Ryan Williams can/will declassify to the 24 class?..My goodness. He is one of the most electrifying kids with the ball in his hands I have ever seen,and I have seen a bunch. The young Hampton kid from Texas is nice also,and is slotted to be a WR at Alabama. I am assuming that Coach Wiggins has developed a strong relationship with these 2 already. Along with Perry Thompson. I am assuming that Mbakwe will be a CB....???

@Brandon Van de Graaff What are you hearing on Wiggins and Sark? I'm getting "that's one to watch" notes.

This isn't dead.

I'm of the impression that Bama fans are a lot more enthralled with Schumann than Schumann is enthralled by Alabama.

 

[RollllTide!]

Must be a good reason that we haven't heard anything concrete yet

 

[AirForceBamaFan]

I get what you guys are saying, but

This isn't dead.

is this Wiggins going as Sarks OC?

Brennan Marion was their wide receivers coach/passing game coordinator last season. He left Texas to take the OC job at UNLV leaving that spot open in Austin. I haven't heard a peep about Sark replacing Kyle Flood—that would come as a big shock.

Well if mama calls and he doesn't answer, there will be consequences! (That was the case when I didn't answer my mama!)
