I believe in some ways Milroe was A cancer on the team!

Bad coaching

[@jimmiecalvert3572]

The good news is Jalen Milroe is gone The bad news is the transfer portal and the NiL as a lifelong Alabama fan, I don’t think I can continue watching college football until this stuff is gone

1)Fundamentally and mechanics-wise? The poorest QB play I can EVER remember in my 68 years.... 2)Overall way below average WR room. Now I know that the QB was a HUGE issue and we had some guys flying open a lot and NOT get a target.But we have to be MUCH improved in 2025,and I believe we will by additions(Horton,Hopefully healthy Hale,Bak,Meadows,+Brooks) and by ridding ourselves of all the unproductive dead weight. 3)A truly average TE room athletically. Blocked OK at times and did make some catches. But my opinion(And I value it MORE than any)is that we spent WAYYYYYYYY too much time in 12 Personnel. 4)A RB room that was wayyyyyyy below the standard that Alabama is,and should be used to. Just hard to believe how poor the room really was. Now I know they never got lathered up much(Miller's 28 carries vs Auburn the exception). Getting rid of Haynes was huge. Such a disappointment.Miller is average at best. Young or Hill will be hitting the road after Spring. Maybe both. Depends on the development of Dear+Riley. LOVE the Washington Add on.He is really talented. Will see if we add another one by summer. 5)An O-Line room,besides Brailsford,that was barely average to piss-poor nearly all year. Will NOT be an easy fix,but would be made simpler if Big Mike,LLoyd,or even DeBose can come in and push for snaps. 6)A D-Line room coming back that "COULD" actually be a strength. And we WILL play add-on 1 more time on the Interior DL...James Smith,LTO,Beamon,Hill,Timmy K,Faga,Collins,Renaud,+Keeley are a youngish,solid nucleus. And active. 7)Our ILB+EDGE rooms have a lot of potential also. Trust me. Even though I am NOT a big Lawson fan, Coach Morrell has kept the guys he wants.Even the young kid from germany Okoronkwo leaving was NO accident.And I believe we play add-on after Spring. 8)Our Backend should be a Big-Time strength. And deep and experienced.
