Title: ** Alabama football PRACTICE REPORTS ** Post by: Chechem on August 07, 2019, 05:17:29 AM Quote Tuesday afternoon... — First-team cornerback Josh Jobe was in a black non-contact jersey ... :dunno: — Miller Forristall (foot), defensive lineman LaBryan Ray (ankle), and backup cornerback Nigel Knott (undisclosed medical issue) weren’t practicing.

Quote For the first full day in pads, Alabama head coach Nick Saban was at least slightly merciful in his practice venue. The Crimson Tide went inside for its Wednesday practice, ...avoiding the 93-degree humid Tuscaloosa heat. Tight end Miller Forristall was back for the practice after sitting out the last week with a foot injury... Major Tennison continued to work with the first unit at tight end, followed by Cam Latu and walk-on Giles Amos. Cornerback Josh Jobe was back at practice after missing Tuesday’s workout with an undisclosed injury. Defensive end LaBryan Ray and defensive back Nigel Knott continued to be out of practice. ... https://www.tidesports.com/alabama-practice-notes-august-7/ :popcorn2: Title: Re: Alabama football practice reports Post by: 2Stater on August 08, 2019, 05:06:42 AM Thanks Chech.

Title: Re: Alabama football practice reports Post by: Chechem on August 08, 2019, 05:22:32 AM Thanks Chech. I sure hope we can cut down on the injuries this year. Just comes with the territory. Maybe Tua learned that he can't stand back there for 7 seconds waiting for a receiver. I'm betting we play more 4 wideouts and quick passes. Splitting out a TE, like we did last year, isn't the same. We've got enough WRs, and Tua has enough experience, that we should have a great quick-passing game. :popcorn2: Title: Re: Alabama football practice reports Post by: Chechem on August 08, 2019, 05:46:54 AM Saban:
Quote “We don’t have to really decide who we’re going to have to coach this early in camp, but I think how they respond on Saturday's scrimmage goes a long way in telling you if a guy has the right stuff relative to the maturity to be trustworthy to go out there and do a job, whether that’s special teams, offense, defense or whatever part of our team. That’s going to be the No. 1 priority for the scrimmage on Saturday.” ... https://247sports.com/college/alabama/Article/Five-Alabama-football-practices-in-and-scrimmage-coming-soon-Nick-Saban-is-looking-for-players-to-do-things-with-discipline--134279251/ Title: Re: Alabama football practice reports Post by: ricky023 on August 08, 2019, 07:40:00 AM Well I am going to be very curious as to our Special Teams work this year.

Title: Re: Alabama football practice reports Post by: Chechem on August 11, 2019, 06:24:22 AM Saturday's first scrimmage:
>:( >:( >:( >:( >:( https://bamahammer.com/2019/08/10/alabama-football-first-scrimmage-news-nuggets/ Not good. The biggest news for Alabama football at Saturday’s scrimmage is the possibly serious injury to senior, inside linebacker, Josh McMillon. Josh was expected to start next to Dylan Moses against Duke. There has been no official diagnosis but all reports are the Crimson Tide staff is concerned it could a serious injury. Adding McMillon to the list, five key starters were sidelined Saturday. Mike linebacker, Dylan Moses and right guard, senior, Matt Womack were withheld from the scrimmage. Neither is expected to miss much work. LaBryan Ray and D.J. Dale are out with a foot and knee problem. Both are expected to return no later than Duke game week. There is also an unconfirmed rumor backup defensive lineman Stephon Wynn was banged up during the scrimmage. Based on carefully leaked reports from some present, there were plenty of positives from the Crimson Tide’s first scrimmage. Redshirt freshman, running back Jerome Ford broke a couple of good runs. Multiple unconfirmed reports are Terrell Lewis, Anfernee Jennings and Chris Allen had strong performances. Will Reichard was 4-for-4 on field goals with one being in the 50-yard range. :popcorn2: Title: Re: Alabama football practice reports Post by: Chechem on August 11, 2019, 06:30:55 AM More from Saturday:
https://alabama.rivals.com/news/the-3-2-1-alabama-crimson-tide-fall-camp-nick-saban “They did really well today,” head coach Nick Saban said when asked about the kicking units following the scrimmage. “I don’t know exactly what the stats were, but both punters — Will (Reichard) and Skyler (DeLong) — both punted the ball really well. Will was really good on field goals. I think Joe (Bulovas) was pretty good on field goals.” According to reports from those in attendance Reichard was especially impressive, connecting on all four of his field goals with a long of 50 yards during the scrimmage. This comes after the freshman nailed a 43-yard kick during the A-Day game this spring. Meanwhile, Alabama fans will welcome positive news surrounding Bulovas after the redshirt sophomore delivered a disappointing 1 of 3 showing on A-Day. The success in the punting game is also an encouraging trend. DeLong averaged 47.5 yards on his four attempts during A-Day and looks to have finally put his freshman demons behind him. As Saban mentioned, Reichard is also a candidate for the punting role after averaging 42.2 yards on six punts during A-Day.

https://www.al.com/alabamafootball/2019/08/alabama-practice-report-notes-on-linebackers-secondary.html Quote — Markail Benton was the other first-team inside linebacker next to Dylan Moses, stepping into the spot that had been manned by Josh McMillon, who is likely out for the season due to a knee injury he suffered during the Crimson Tide’s scrimmage on Saturday. Freshman Shane Lee and Ale Kaho were the second-team inside linebackers. The third group consisted of Jaylen Moody and freshman Christian Harris. — Outside linebacker Anfernee Jennings had a brace on his right knee. — Nose tackle DJ Dale (sprained knee) wasn’t practicing. Neither was reserve nose tackle Stephon Wynn, who sustained an undisclosed injury during the scrimmage on Saturday. — Freshman Jordan Battle was the second-team strong safety.

The saying you play like you practice is true. Remember a few years ago Chizik at the barn decided to not allow tackling in fall practice to avoid injury. They did not tackle anyone all year. The barn won 3 games and Chizik lost his job. Football is a physical sport and injuries happen. That is why depth is so important.

Title: Re: Alabama football practice reports Post by: Hannibal Lecter, MD on August 21, 2019, 10:16:03 AM 11 defensive players who we faced last year talk candidly about Tua:
Quote Clemson, to put it bluntly, was more than ready. Cornerback A.J. Terrell stepped in front of Tagovailoa’s third pass of the night for an interception he returned 44 yards for a stunning 7-0 opening salvo. “Really, we knew that he wasn’t reading the defenses that well in the backfield,” former Clemson defensive lineman Bert Huggins said. “So, we were disguising the defense pretty well and then we would move into a different defense. He just couldn’t read the defense.” It was the first of two interceptions Tagovailoa threw that night after entering the game with just four in 14 games. Clemson linebacker Kendall Joseph credited defensive coordinator Brent Venables for exhausting game planning. “We understand what he wanted to do and we wanted to exploit it,” Joseph said. “It started with trying to knock him off rhythm and get some pressure and get some hits on him and try to rattle the quarterback and I think we did a good job of that.” The 14 game tapes provided the blueprint. “What they did all year,” Joseph said. “They were a big RPO team -- a deadly RPO team so we had some plans in place to knock out the RPO and break off his rhythm. That’s how their first downs and just moving the ball. The RPO was the biggest thing we saw.” Alabama moved the ball between the 20s fairly effectively, given the final score. It was the 1-for-4 red zone touchdown success rate and the two turnovers that swung the momentum several times that night. Stopping the run-pass option plays were a challenge. “You have to definitely have the numbers in the box for the run but you have to be physical,” Joseph said. “You can’t play soft because they were just getting six or seven yards on teams on first- and-second-downs. It’s hard to call a defense on third-and-3, third-and-2. Just stopping them on first down, getting physical, rotating those safeties and that’s what we did.” Cornerback Trayvon Mullen called Tagovailoa a definite NFL first-round draft pick of the future noting his speed. “He has a great arm on him and he can run,” Huggins added. “I think the injuries were bothering him a little bit but he’s a great quarterback. I think he’s going to do good and I wish the best for him.” For the rest: https://www.al.com/alabamafootball/2019/08/inside-intel-on-tua-tagovailoa-from-opponents-speaking-candidly-about-alabama-qb.html Title: Re: Alabama football practice reports Post by: ricky023 on August 21, 2019, 11:30:39 AM I have watched the NCG more than I want to admit and I will tell you what to us that night.
We got out played by great players, and outcoached by serious coaches. We got out cheered by better fans that night and their cheerleaders and band out did us from the time we got off the bus. To win a NCG we have to play as one unified group of the whole shootin match or we get beat. That is how we lost the 2018 NCG to a better program that night. RTR!

Click the link for the full story. Quote -- The win over Southern Miss was “probably the most complete game” Alabama has played in all three phases. ... -- Asked about philosophy change in SEC where top teams are passing heavy, Saban said it’s a trend in college football in general. “I think space play is much more important than it used to be years ago," he said. “The game has opened up to where horizontally and vertically you got to cover the entire field. ... I think that has created a lot more explosive plays on offense. People with good skill players and a quarterback can take advantage of those things." -- DJ Dale and Terrell Lewis probably will not practice Monday but will return later to practice and could play Saturday. Saban called kicker Will Reichard “more day-to-day and more questionable” than the other injured players. “We need to get it right now” and not have Reichard’s injury aggravate him the rest of the season. ... -- Asked about Deonte Brown, Saban said any player must beat out another player to see the field. ... “That’s up to him.” .... -- Anfernee Jennings and Xavier McKinney have “tried to take up some of the slack” of leadership on defense after injuries to other past leaders. ... -- Saban is pleased with the progress they see in Christian Barmore. “The challenge for us is to get him to do the things he needs to do ... -- Saban said it is important to sign a “good quarterback” each recruiting season ... -- Saban said Joseph Bulovas did a great job against Southern Miss. ... Title: Re: Alabama football practice reports Post by: pmull on September 24, 2019, 06:45:24 AM I am interested to see how deep in the dog house Deonta Brown is.

Dickerson could play QB if he wanted to. The guy is solid at every position he has played. Looks like maybe the O line is getting the chemistry it needs with this new lineup. Defensively, the bottom line is, these young players are gaining experience every week. They showed flashes of a dominant D at times against A&M. Other times, not so much. But better than the performance against Ole Miss. Would really like to see them pull it all together against UT.
