Bama transfers

[Anegada1]

Thoughts on any possible Bama transfers with the unexpected coaching exit ? I don't know enough to speculate on who might become available, but it feels like there could be some opportunities .

Not a transfer but

Portal is closed, right? It supposedly closed Jan. 3, but for team in NY bowls, they had five extra days. If that's business days, they had until Jan. 10, which is when Saban announced his retirement.

Was he holding them hostage to Bammer?

Don't think it's closed for a coaching change.

Thanks. I see they have a 30-day window when there's a coaching change.

"SAs receive an extra 30-day time period to enter the Transfer Portal if there is a head coaching change or if aid is canceled."

Opens up after a HC leaves. 30 days.

Or if the player loses their scholarship.

Of course they were told to wait, though its probably in and of itself good advice to not make brash decisions. I wonder if Alabama will have a new head coach in a few days?

There is an automatic 30 day window opened when a coaching change occurs.

Telling the players to wait has zero effect. Some will want to wait any way just to see who the new coach is but rival schools will be contacting them immediately to beat other schools.

Whatever happened to those backups from Bama Frost brought in? That safety and DT.

Good question, seems like they never emerged from deep on the depth chart.

It seems like Alabama transfers are nice options because of their high HS pedigree. But unless a coach really knows a player well, I think it's buyer beware. Even at an Alabama, if a kid is older and still not playing much, it might be for a good reason.

The DT Wynn? He was here in 2022, and went to Ole Miss for 2023. He was alright. Nothing to brag about. Don't even remember a Bama safety.

Kaine Williams. Moved to LB, buried on the depth chart.
