Alabama Can't Hold on to Trey Amos

[CajunNation]

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

Well, in the age of NIL, we are told that we can't fault guys looking to make more money as well. Previous poster mentioned his possible draft status being hurt by leaving here and NOT being able to start for Alabama.

NIL/Portal chasing is a HUGE gamble for the already elite, highly respected players. If they have been told they have a good draft eval, their best bet is to stay where they are.

Are you lost CajunNation said that.

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

Amos would have been the magical 4th pick six needed to beat JSU. ;-)

Thats the game.

Amos was ok for us. Was he our best DB? I don’t think so but I’m sure he would have helped us this year.

I will predict he ends up at UH.

A. I thought portal was closed
B. If one returns to original school does it count as two transfers or do they cancel each other out?

I think you are right his position was definitely a liability at times.

[CharlieK]

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.

Draft stock, maybe. Actually making an NFL team? I doubt it. He got better coaching, and a dose of reality that will either point him to improve or he will never make a pro team.

bama players have 30 days to enter portal due to Saban resignation. Bama DB coach also took position at new school which factored into Amos' decision to portal out.

With a head coach change, the portal opens back up....least that's what I think I read somewhere!

Any intel on whether Fitzgerald West DL is committing to UL? He portaled out from LSU former LCA star.
