um... :boom: BAMA Title: Re: Henry To'o To'o announces transfer to Alabama Post by: Chechem on May 09, 2021, 04:38:40 AM This is perhaps the first example of what will likely be a trend caused by this new era of free agency. Henry didn’t transfer because of playing time. Alabama took Tennessee’s leading tackler because he wanted to be at Alabama.

Jalen Moody chose Bama, came in, worked hard, and when opportunity presented itself got on the field and played well. Now ToTo comes in and want's to displace all the hard work Moody has put in. To me, playing time is the reward for hard work and improvement, and ToTo hasn't put in any hard work yet.
He missed spring ball. He'll get in school in the summer. Let's see how he does learning Bama's sophisticated D. Moody already knows our D. ToTo is a good player. He's proven that and I'm glad he's finally found his way to Bama. But for my 2-cents, I'm pulling for Moody to be the starter.

But for my 2-cents, I'm pulling for Moody to be the starter. I agree, and I worry about Moody's point of view. BUT... 1. That LB position is the weak link of our D, and lacks depth. 2. ToTo has been enrolled in Alabama classes all spring. Not sure why UT allowed that, but they did. 3. The alternative was Ohio State getting ToTo; much better scenario having him at Bama. 4. His heart is at Bama, so now his azz is too! :lol2: Title: Re: Henry To'o To'o announces transfer to Alabama Post by: N.AL-Tider on May 10, 2021, 05:21:29 PM I figured he just got tired of losing on the 3rd Saturday in October every year... but whatdaIknow? :dunno:

I feel certain that Coach Saban guaranteed nothing, but an opportunity. That being said what if Coach has a plan. Like Coach Bryant and the wishbone. 3-4, anyone? BAMA |
