| love to hear that about Tiny - he just has too much potential to keep off the field another year and if weren't for his injury I think we would have seen him last season more
He and JJames at the tackles is putting a lot more talent on the field - hopefully some combination of Dthomas,Fulton, MJackson, Bullard can get it done on the 3 inside spots |

At least in a clean legit manner like CDD seems to be doing it in. I'm sure Bama boosters helped in their own special way when they were on probation to make sure the talent didn't dip to far.
CDD has been more positive as of late and I think he is finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Still some humps to get over, but seems he feels he can get over them.
I'm pumped for this season to start!!!

Also, Dooley gave a very passionate speech saying he is going to run a tighter ship, and that included demanding more from players, himself, and the rest of the coaches. He promised everything was going to be more disciplined this year.
Just a few notes that I thought were interesting. |
Maybe it’s the competition that we have...no more lack luster playing because we have depth....that sure does build character  | |
