Left guard Chance Warmack said the first team hasn't missed a beat with Kelly at the center of it all.

"He's an exceptional young player that catches on very fast with the scheme of things," Warmack said. "I don't really see him as a young player. I see him as a veteran.

"He's keen on carrying me and taking control in terms of making the right calls, knowing the scheme, what it takes to be a starter at center on the offensive line. He's doing a really good job."

Kelly was a three-star prospect out of West Chester, Ohio, but he was recruited like a four- or five-star. He was one of Alabama's first commitments for the 2011 class, as former linebackers coach Sal Sunseri led the charge to bring Kelly to Alabama.

Jones will play. He was on a radio station a few days ago and said he will be ready. The boot is a precautionary measure.

In my experience only fools spend any time wondering about whether oppositional stars will show up to play against you. And Kelly is no fool, nor Diaco. You practice as if the players who play will in fact get off the bus. What you hope is that when some guy doesn't suit up, your own guy who has been revving his engine doesn't relax and look for a shadetree to lie down under every second play. I doubt that there is any of that in Big Lou at all. The opposing jersey is all he needs to rock and roll the tide backwards.

Is there a general Bama thread? Idk where this belongs but Sarkisian is leaving to take Atlantas OC position to replace Shanahan.

Edit: Dublin beat me to it in the silly season thread.

Yup, just heard on the radio that Sarkisian has taken the job.

Departures - OC (Kiffin, Sark), WR coach (Napier), TE coach (Cristobal)

List of candidates for Alabama offensive coordinator after Steve Sarkisian bolts

(Locksley, Napier (after one week away?), Helfrich, Chip K.)

Steve Sarkisian leaving Alabama for Falcons amid disagreements with Nick Saban

Multiple sources have confirmed to SB Nation that after meetings with Alabama head coach Nick Saban following the Championship, the relationship between Saban and Sarkisian deteriorated amid disagreements in β€œsystem philosophy,” per one source. Both parties planned to move on following Signing Day last Wednesday, and Saban was aware of Sarkisian’s contact with the Falcons.

One source described the problems between Sarkisian and Saban as β€œtoo similar” to the relationship between Saban and former coordinator Kiffin.

My stance is the same as when it happened last year with Cam Robinson: I'd like to see Saban make an example of him to get the point across to every other player on the team, and send him packing. I doubt it happens, but that's what I'd like to see.

From what I've heard on podcasts, Saban does punish them pretty hard. Robinson had to do like 100 hours of community service, and then spend like 16 hours riding around in a cop car on traffic stops, as well things I'm sure were unreported.

Saban doesn't care what people think, I actually don't mind how he punishes them. One could argue the community service and spending time with police offers is a better punishment than sitting out a football game.

That's just classless. At least the girl filming it (or someone at her table) was apologetic.

"Bama fan or player acts rudely or otherwise without class" is such a common trope that it's not even worth mentioning. It's like "Michigan fan acts arrogant because his trailer is within walking distance of the nearest Walmart" or "USC signs 20 five star players, wins 7 games, under investigation for X."

USC and Michigan, I'll give you. Bama fans I've met are generally pretty cool. As long as you acknowledge the dominance of their football team, of course.

I would respond but I don't know what trope means. I did fix your screen name for you however. You had left out a few letters MoroNIrishman. Enjoy.

Kmoose likes to follow me around and troll me and in general just to be a nussaince. Its not an isolated event.

Jesus Christ, you are a sensitive girl, aren't you? The link you posted was put online about 25 minutes before April 1st. It's not that much of a stretch for someone to mention that it might be an April Fools prank. Take some fvcking Midol, for Christ's sake. You aren't important enough, or even remotely interesting enough, for me to follow around.
