Good stuff. Thanks!

6-6 QB, wow.

any rumors of any other former players looking to return?

I think the number of players that could return is very slim.

The number that would return is even slimmer.

However if they were to do it, now & in the near future would be the time because they would sit out next year automatically while the team is still sitting out.

i thought that the only people it might possibly apply to are players that were freshmen last year, transferred as sophomores this year, so would have 2 years of eligibility left.
didn't think there would be many (if any), but thought there might be a couple

If we would have come back in 2016 more than half would have come back from the people I have talked to. I'm excited about who we have and are recruiting. We will have our highest recruited and most talented roster we have ever had.

I would think that of the high school signees in Clark's first class there'd be a few since they'd have to sit out next yr & we're not playing it anyway

One of those frosh was QB Orth who transferred to USA but was not listed at that position at the end of this season. Is there any word on him or Chippoletti?

Chipoletti for sure isn't coming back. He got married, and is out in Wyoming.

He will be in our prayers.

For getting married or Wyoming?

both.

Don't think she was interested in moving to Birmingham.

Wyoming isn't that bad - some pretty back country up there though not sure I'd enjoy the winters there

Wyoming: where the men are tough and the women are tougher.

Warning- compounding the DERAIL:
I grew up in CO, and one of my favorite places to go as a kid was Wyoming- usually for hunting/horse shows/rodeos. Pristinely beautiful without the crazy CA folks like we experienced in CO.

Alright, that's all it for the derail down memory lane.

I think that I'd love living in Wyoming for about three to four months out of the year.

Wyoming is called "The Equality State" because it was the first state to give the vote to women. While driving to Yellowstone Park, happened to pass through Kennamer and found the "Mother Store" of J.C. Penney. Two of our largest retailers began in such small towns.

Another useful ==> useless spiral

Fennis Dembo who played for Wyoming (& played against UAB many years ago) was from Mobile.
