In today's fishwrap ....



"Bryant doesn’t possess off-the-charts speed, but his leaping ability and 75-inch wingspan allows him to get separation from defenders and and make catches in traffic."

Maybe one of those "possession" receivers ?
They're nice to have.

Other than a missed td pass vs the Hoosiers, he's shown good hands.
And there's nothing wrong with his speed.

Was he the one that dropped the weird HB pass from Brown? Like it kinda surprised him?

Don't know if it was Brown. Could have been.
It looked like he mis-timed it and jumped too soon. Hit both hands. Maybe a db obstructed his vision ? If it was Brown, the ball may have been moving a little slower than a ball from DeVito. Lol.

It appeared a defender got in his line of vision for a second and might’ve thrown off his vision of the pass. When it was thrown it appeared to have a lot more zip on it than it should have and even surprised me. I was like damn that seemed awful fast and hard of a throw than need be. So it might’ve surprised Bryant as well.

If he keeps developing, he has the size (6’3”) to do quite a bit of damage in his career here and in the future. Only a sophomore.

Additionally, what the fuck happened to Casey Washington after his freshman season, he’s sucked. He is terrible.

He's shown hands before.
Maybe it's just taking some time to get used to a qb who can throw a catchable ball.  ;D

Nick Saban has issued a stern warning over the way that Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) legislation has been implemented in college football. In a recent interview with the Associated Press, the legendary Alabama coach said "I don't think what we're doing right now [with NIL] is a sustainable model."

"The concept of name, image and likeness was for players to be able to use their name, image and likeness to create opportunities for themselves. That's what it was," said Saban. "But that creates a situation where you can basically buy players. You can do it in recruiting. I mean, if that's what we want college football to be, I don't know. And you can also get players to get in the transfer portal to see if they can get more someplace else than they can get at your place."

I really feel for you Nick.  This damned NIL and transfer portal kinda cuts into your business model.  4-5 star kids are less likely to be patient waiting in the wings for a couple of years for their chance to shine.  Now they can reap more immediate benefits.  Suck a lemon!

It is highly possible that his motive for saying this can be questioned, but the content of what he says can be true. In fact, so highly possible that it can be correct.

Not sure what the solution is, but I know the current format is far from ideal.
I am a former 5-star general. Or maybe it was 4-star.
Nichi claims a guard with a 1.3 assist-to-TO ratio is a good passer.

Yes, this would be a HUGE get for us. Could be an important game changer in recruiting. Much like Ayo was for the basketball program.

Impressive.

"Meanwhile, the Illinois defense — which was strong in Year One under coordinator Ryan Walters — has an even better sell after a dominant first half of the season.  The Illini rank No. 1 among FBS programs in scoring defense, total defense, pass efficiency defense and interceptions. Walters’ group also is No. 2 in passing defense, No. 3 in rushing defense and No. 6 in sacks. That amounts to a lot of ammunition in recruiting."
