Alabama Can't Hold on to Trey Amos

[CajunT]

Not sure. He got to play a couple of seasons for the top coach in college football history, and in some of the biggest games of the last few years. The alternative was play in front of nobody in two losing seasons. He has one more year to solidify any draft opportunities he may have.

I wish he would have stayed here, though.

Yes, and he was a role player. Did he improve his stock as a NFL prospect by playing at Alabama rather than staying at UL as a starter? I don't think so in my opinion. As a role player with 1 year left of eligibility, what are his chances of remaining in the P5? His best opportunity will probably be playing at a G5 again and trying to gain a starting position.

No need to knock Louisiana in your two annual assessments.

If he helps win a single game "1" (each) he would not have played for a losing team.

Man we have the thinnest skin in the world. Why does every analysis have to be twisted into a knock on Louisiana? Insecurity may be our biggest enemy.

Its all about equations.

Since you have an accountung degree.

If the college he plays for can’t find him, it is already a long shot that any NFL team will want him. Some slip through the cracks at the college level then make it in the NFL but that is more than often the exception as opposed to the rule and an exception which is rather rare.

He played one season, started only one game, appearing in twelve. He logged a grand total of 12 tackles (6 solo) and 5 pass breakups.

Look, the kid bet on himself thinking he could start or be a significant part of the Saban defense to boost draft possibilities, but unfortunately for him, it didn't work out. Hindsight is 20/20, but looking back on it now, he probably should have stayed.

I hope we are using instances like this to re-recruit our guys to stay.

You definitely have a misnomer here. Very few equations in accounting. Accounting is generally simple math.

Fair enough but equations are connected by the equal sign and by hypothetically adding him back and saying he would automatically experience losing is poor math, simply because it ignores his contribution to the equation.

There is no longer any simple path from high school to the NFL these days anyhow there is an advisor on every corner.

Maybe, but can't really fault an athlete who wants to try and be a starter at a program like Alabama.

Tangent aside, I think Louisiana wins one or two more games with Trey Amos on the roster.

That may be a sleeting thought on a day like today . . .

Thanks for providing what actually was rather than going with some of the revisionist narrative provided a misread

Trey ain’t gonna end up in a better place than Alabama.

So is it gonna be t
Tulane or Nichols?
