Alabama moved around its linebackers at the outset of practice Wednesday. Read more...

Both Rashaan Evans and Dylan Moses, two inside linebackers, were working with the outside linebackers in individual drills. Evans would later move back to his usual position when the back seven of the defense went through the motions in the nickel package. It should be noted that both Evans and Moses have the capability to play inside and outside. It's also conceivable Alabama is preparing Evans and Moses for the "nickel rabbits" package that the Tide used with great efficacy against Tennessee last season. In that set, former inside linebacker Reuben Foster was positioned as an edge rusher....

Good stuff.

[/quote   I noticed in the scrimmage that RS freshman Ben Davis was getting a lot of reps rushing from the outside spot. I had read an article that they liked his speed and were going to try him there this Spring. He was very quick but seemed to need more time learning to use his hands better but he looked very promising.

We are loaded with top LBs.  I'd love to see Davis play this year; also Mack Wilson (if he promises to not kill anyone!).

BINGO!, that was a goodie!

Then Gary started his "helmet-to-helmet" rant, which is ONLY called when a player is defenseless.  Otherwise, every LB tackling a running back running between the tackles would be flagged EVERY series.

Hey Gary complains about anything against us. If he could he would penalize us on every play. RTR!
