I hear we're talking to a grad transfer OL from Bama. 

 

[texasdalton]

Which one and would he be a starter for us from day one?

 

[drgilbert]

Apparently J Ellis is on campus as well 

 

[Sirhornsalot]

He and Hand are now following each other on twitter.

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

Reached out for confirmation on this. 

Confirmed with Higgins that he visited campus today. Spent the entire day talking ball with the staff.

How many OL have transferred out from Bama now? At least 3 right?

Yea he wants to play SEC ball but a SEC rule is blocking that. Pretty big deal on the web right now

2 for sure. One I read a article is actually gets 2 years eligible which is a rare find. That would be some top talent to get ahold of

Apparently is in a battle with Alabama over transferring to Tennessee or Auburn. They don’t want him to stay in the conference. 

Seems silly to do all of that over a reserve center, but that’s just one man’s opinion.

You beat me to it. Bama had similar issue with a DB who wanted to go to UGA. They eventually relented and allowed it.

Yea supposedly an SEC rule not saban rule. Unless he sits out a year

I wouldn’t call it normal. Unless they are absurdly deep along the OL it’s actually kind of alarming.

isn't it any in-conference transfers require 2 year sitting period? its how it use to be

I’m not sure on all that. I just read where Saban is using that line for his excuse. You are probably correct though

If you allow one to transfer within conference, maybe you have to allow all to do it? I could see someone wanting to sue in the future and they would state "You let him do it, why not me?". It's the world we live in.

The Maurice Smith case definitely opens them up to scrutiny at this point. Not sure if they will or can sue, but they will certainly raise a fuss about it.

Calvin Anderson got the Gil Brandt stamp of approval.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

This is an example of the delusion aggy fans allow aggy mods to feed them.

1. Yeah right, not worried about Alabama. In your dreams, fool.

2. The implication seems to be that because he knew this would happen, its no big deal. lol okay.

3. His last line where he lets the world know how naive he is . . what says he doesn't take multiple visits, late? He makes that assumption because it feels good. He literally has no idea whether or not Leal will take visits in the fall/winter.
