Robert Lester intecepts passes he will move up. RTR!

He refuses to go down. It takes the whole defense at times to get him down. I keep having flash backs to that great run he had against Arkansas as a true freshman.

Title: Re: Four Alabama players picked as preseason All-Americans Post by: XBAMA on March 24, 2011, 10:06:36 PM Dont'a should be first team this year. Preseason nonsense. you got that right , utter nonsense !!! :( and Trent 3rd team ? seriously ? geesh ! :-\ Title: Re: Four Alabama players picked as preseason All-Americans Post by: Marshal Dillon on March 24, 2011, 10:25:06 PM I fully expect Robert Lester to be All SEC and All American. I think Hightower is even more likely to be All SEC and All American. Hightower is on a mission to show he is back and Lester just gets better every game and he's a big play guy.

Pre-Season stuff is all about whose name is already known and wild guesses. Might as well consult an ouija board. Title: Re: Four Alabama players picked as preseason All-Americans Post by: ricky023 on March 25, 2011, 01:19:48 PM Pre-season is fun to write and discuss but as a wise man has said (CNS) preseason stuff is junk. lol, RTR!
