Title: With minimal experiments, Tide kicks off spring football practice today Post by: 2Stater on March 09, 2012, 06:50:28 AM http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2012/03/with_minimal_experiments_tide.html
Quote TUSCALOOSA, Alabama - Spring practice is a football coach's laboratory. It's a time to experiment. But Alabama coach Nick Saban probably will stop short of becoming the mad scientist when spring practice starts today. Brent Calloway is being moved from running back to linebacker. Quote Maybe that's Jesse Williams, who is moving from defensive end to nose guard to replace the departed Josh Chapman, a two-year starter. :o Title: Re: With minimal experiments, Tide kicks off spring football practice today Post by: BAMADCHAMPSHIPS on March 09, 2012, 06:57:46 AM :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump: :jump:

But after reading the al.com story I don't know what to think. Can't believe al.com would overlook this.

Coach Saban has confirmed this. Both are recovering from injuries and will be ready to go when fall practice starts. They are both participating in conditioning drills as much as possible.

Any truth to that or is the ESPN story just badly written? I guess Eddie is still battling the turf toe too.
Thanks for pointing out it's Arie & not Cyrus. My bad. |
