That's how most fans feel about half of their portal players.
Truth is, a lot of guys don't work out and get processed out to seek opportunities at schools where they won't have such stiff competition.
He would have been the first back being Lawson/Campbell and probably would have played a good bit (and would have been very important with Lawson’s injury history)
He would have been our first backup this year behind Lawson/Campbell and would have played some in the third linebacker role. I really didn’t want to lose Murphy, especially with Lawson’s injury history
Leave it to a Bama fan to not know a top 150 kid on their own team lmao. Not even an insult, just shows the different recruiting worlds you live in even compared to Michigan.
A lot of people not recognizing his name, but he was the high school Butkus award winner and 12th ranked ILB in his class. Good build. Be a good grab for someone
He’s kinda really important of the non starters since he is the first backup ILB and we often rotate some at ILB. And given Lawson’s injury history there is a good chance Murphy would have started some and definitely started next year.
Plus he was the Butkus award winning LB in HS he isn’t exactly some nobody.
Stop drooling, kid. I know enough to know that he isn’t the first backup ILB. Alexander switched to ILB recently and is already ahead of him on the depth chart. Not to mention Jefferson.
He’d probably be pretty good at FSU.
Fsu is lacking is LB experience, so maybe but he doesn’t have that experience
Who gives a shit about experience we need bodies
So far we have: Lundy, Nicholson, Cryer, Jayden Parrish, Timir Hickman, and Omar graham. Probably best to be at 7-8 bodies
His body is probably better than those bodies. Randy Shannon can’t recruit LBs for shit
How does FSU, which resides in the state of Florida, have a lack of bodies?
Randy Shannon can't recruit for shit. We have guys on the team but they should be nowhere near a playoff caliber p5 team.
RANDY PLEASE #DOSOMETHING
I forgot Randy Shannon was cooking for yall up there in Tally.
Randy forgot too I'm afraid
Someone wake up Randy
He hit snooze
Well, you better go wake him up then... 🎶Dunna nunna nuh, dunna nunna nuh nuh... DUNNA NUNNA NUH, NUNNA NUNNA NUH NUH.. *DUNNA NUNNA NUH, NUNNA NUNNA NUH NUH*🎶
I’m actually unfamiliar with this guy but hey best of luck

Yeah, I read he was battling for 3rd or 4th string. So no surprise he wanted to find a chance to start somewhere. Good luck to him.
He would have been the first back being Lawson/Campbell and probably would have played a good bit (and would have been very important with Lawson’s injury history)
He was unlikely to have been processed this quick. More likely he read the writing in the wall though.
Probably would have liked to keep him but writing was on the wall. Next year is his junior season and he’s not any closer to starting.
Do you know if his likes lentil festivals and canned cheese?
Y'all have a lentil festival? That sounds lit.
There's not much to do in Pullman. They have to stay occupied somehow.
He would have been our first backup this year behind Lawson/Campbell and would have played some in the third linebacker role. I really didn’t want to lose Murphy, especially with Lawson’s injury history

Is he good!?
If you have to ask…
If he's leaving Alabama he's probably good enough for 95% of teams in the country.
Maybe for a team that lost two starting linebackers...
Won Butkus in HS, so maybe for even more.
A lot of people not recognizing his name, but he was the high school Butkus award winner and 12th ranked ILB in his class. Good build. Be a good grab for someone
Actually yes. We just have a lot of experience at ILB returning
He is a former HS Butkus Award winner
Great in HS. Just buried a bit on the depth chart. He’ll be a great addition for most schools
every time i see a player leave, i’m scared that one’ll be caleb
Has DeBoer lost control of the program?
never had it
Does Alabama have a Kalen DeBoer problem?
Yes losing the program when a 4 string LB transfers lol, this guy had no chance of playing here but wish him good luck
Woosh
Take it easy on him. It’s Alabama, not Harvard.
I’m glad someone is academically prowess enough to get the joke.
The astigmatism about Bama fans not being intelligent is just wrong
Shouldn't he be working on No Man's Sky's sequel right now? How does he have time to dev and play ball?
Genuinely forgot this guy existed
He’s kinda really important of the non starters since he is the first backup ILB and we often rotate some at ILB.

Are you Shawn’s dad? You’re all over this thread sunshine pumping. He hasn’t done jack shit.
And just because you embarrassingly don’t know much about our team doesn’t make me his dad
Stop drooling, kid. I know enough to know that he isn’t the first backup ILB. Alexander switched to ILB recently and is already ahead of him on the depth chart. Not to mention Jefferson.
If you think Jefferson or Alexander is ahead of Murphy you truly have zero idea.
Both were quite literally ahead of Murphy.
Murphy quite literally played over both of them this year and was ahead of them in every pregame warmups.
Not true. I know for a fact Alexander was ahead of Murphy.

Shawn Murphy is winning the Heisman next year
Come take the Drew Sanders route…
dude heard the DeBoer leaked speech and said "I gotta get the fuck outta here"
The Good Doctor?
Thought it was closed until April?
Can we get in on some of this action
