Maybe not the best idea……

 

[Crazy Balki]

Good lord.

I know that many Bama fans aren't the sharpest tools in the shed, but how could somebody be this oblivious? Not only the dumbass wearing it, but the dumbass who made it.

The shirt is legit, but the "Killin' our way..." part on the back looks like it was made with iron-on letters and aren't part of the original shirt. The university would never have approved that shirt from a licensed manufacturer. If it's a genuine Bama fan, I hope they permanently ban the guy. Odds are, it's an Auburn or Texas A&M fan trying to cause embarrassment. Someone will identify him soon and we'll find out.

Poor taste but I’ll admit I laughed

So the fanbase that produced Harvey Updyke couldn't include this idiot? That's a stretch.

Sorry Bish and T,… but,… If it’s found out/ruled to be a ‘fake’ I’ll go all in it was still put on by Bama fans to make other bases look like they’re actually the nut bags bc that would be completely on brand.

Spent the weekend in Nashville for the SEC tourney and can confirm, Bama fans are the absolute worst. Brandon Miller always had the loudest cheers and boos. The civilized Bama fans I talked to all said the same thing. ”You have to let the legal system play out”

I brought up that he should have at least been suspended and disciplined and the coach saying wrong place and wrong time was the most tone def thing ever. They gave me that look and shrug. Bama fans are awful.

Kinda begs the question as to why ND would want to “compete” with institutions that are willing to move the goal posts to this extent. College athletics was kinda a cesspool pre NIL. Shit has gone completely off the rails.

I don’t believe it. Bama shouldn’t be playing ball but they don’t care about standards. They care about wins and nothing else matters. I can’t believe Vandy stays in this conference.

What is it you don't believe and why shouldn't Bama be playing?

 

[irishff1014]

I can see how people would think he is a fan from Another fan base but I don’t think so he is. I think he is a Bama guy. Most Bama fans I run into are ignorant.

You have straight up thug playing college basketball. You have a coach that played it off as a minor issue. When in reality in the NFL or NBA he would have been suspended.

But again it’s Bama. The only team that might have any good in them at Bama is the softball team. But I am not a Bama fan so there’s that.

I will say you and T man are pretty good on here though.

 

[Irish#1]

The kid should have been suspended for a couple of games, no ifs or buts. Do that and no one is talking about it anymore, but because they didn't, Bryant Gumbel took the opportunity to get a jab in at the start of the tournament seeding show.

 

[Sea Turtle]

Hey Bishop2b5 , can you tell me about Emil Ekiyor? Why he wasn't drafted and what you you think of him as a player.

 

[INLaw]

Hey Bishop2b5 , can you tell me about Emil Ekiyor? Why he wasn't drafted and what you think of him as a player.

Good question he was from Indiana and I thought had a pretty good career at bama

 

[SeekNDestroy]

Hey Bishop2b5 , can you tell me about Emil Ekiyor? Why he wasn't drafted and what you you think of him as a player.

Same reasons HH didn’t recruit him to ND even though he would’ve crawled to South Bend. His body type (short height, short arms.)

 

[Bishop2b5]

Hey Bishop2b5 , can you tell me about Emil Ekiyor? Why he wasn't drafted and what you you think of him as a player.

I think he's a little shorter than what is considered ideal for his weight and position, and supposedly teams were a little worried about a knee injury from a couple of years ago, though he got a clean bill of health on it at the combine. Not totally sure what's going on with him. He was a solid 3-year starter at Bama, but never quite a superstar.

 

[MacIrish75]

I think Ekiyor is a day one starter for the Colts at RG. Not necessarily because he’ll be great, but because of how bad Will Fries has been in that spot.

I thought Danny Pinter was getting the reps? Either way Ekiyor should be an upgrade over both.

I had heard his size wasn’t ideal.

For those that follow Alabama closely how did Keon Keeley's spring practices go?

He had shoulder surgery in February. I don't think he participated in spring practice, but is expected to be fully recovered and ready when fall practices start in July or August.

Thanks for the update, he is going to be good for Bama...wish he was wearing the gold helmet.

What's crazy is that Alabama signed a 28 man class and 25 were EEs. Keon, Richard Young, and Yhonzae Pierre were the three that enroll in June. Keon is already slated in BAMA's 2 deep behind Dallas Turner. Justice Haynes, Kadyn Proctor, Caleb Downs, and Desmond Ricks look to be starters/early contributors.

We needed this class. Our 2021 class was the highest rated in CFB history, and only 3 or 4 guys from it have made any real impact. Not a complete bust, but WAY below what was expected. A few of the top recruits from that class have hit the portal, and most of the others have just not developed so far. Dallas Turner and Koolaid McKinstry are the only real studs.

No you didn’t.

They haven’t done anything of note. That Bama 21 class is terrible. That’s not how to win a championship. I want Saban gone.

does anybody know anything about the bama crimson tide baseball coach being looked at for or trying to fix a baseball game recently. was listening to the college sports channel on xm radio yesterday and caught the ending where the two hosts were talking about him being accused of him fixing some recent game where he scratched his starter for that game just before it started. didn't catch the beginning of them talking it and so this is all i know as of now.

Saban calling for parity screams going against his own self interests doesn't it?
