    1. Should we be worried that Alabama has half as many offensive linemen on the Outland watch list as we have on scholarship at all? Not good.

  2. lolz @ Jonathan Hankins being on the Nagurski list. An instate DT clearly talented not offer worthy? Not skinny enough to be a DT at Michigan. That's why RR no longer is employed at U of M...
