RE: It’s OK to Get Frustrated with UAB Football
This article seems like it is a year or two too early. Is the writer trying to tell me something?

Pretty frustrating season in multiple ways. Wished I saw a few guys a little more than others.

Can't help but think about if we had some the guys we thought would be on the team. Greg Bryant, DJ Law, Clifton Garrett, etc.

Exactly! everybody was caught up in the great classes we signed but the majority of the players that gave us the ratings are not here. Taking the green and gold glasses off, we have some talent but i don't think we have near the talent we had in 2014 or the depth. I think depth is killing us especially on special teams.

RE: It’s OK to Get Frustrated with UAB Football
Would like to see Walker,Mccoin,and Carter a little more, see if they can make more plays. Also I thought M.Johnson had tackle experience, also Schlueger. This Oline needs the guy who signed with Oklahoma on it don't see how he doesn't start. The Dline will be fine without him with Chisholm and Easley. Pickren could help there too. LB's need Lee too.
Wouldve had guys changing positions up to homecoming to get the right guys in the right spot.

RE: It’s OK to Get Frustrated with UAB Football
I just feel that your Coach Clark is not playing the best player on the team I know for a fact that he have 3 power 5 players on that team and two of them was high school All American and one of them had between 14 to 18 D1 offers out of high school and all of them was power 5 school. Play the best player and you will get results. Guys to me that just had offers from one school is not the best player on the team. You might find a diamond in the rough that can play power 5 yyou all will see Today and when your team play a mediocre Florida Gators team

What in the heck are you trying to say? We don't play Florida for another 7 weeks. The best players are on the field. They EARN their pecking order every day in what they call practice.

I don't blame him for leaving, I hope Walker doesn't leave. This staff does seem to have their favorites already.

I hope not, was looking to see a decent amount of blueshirts to get to the 25 scholarship limit. We have a lot of walkons in that number right?

You can be a better player on paper but if you dont practise or dont listen to the coach ,,,the bench is waiting for you ,,,,
the world is full of people and comment like that ...
Dont forget that ,,,,,despite what most of people told you that you were special , gifted , smart etc ,,,,
nobody owe you anything ,,,you need to earn it

And a lot of greats was held back this way, like the greatest that never was. People have sayings for whatever fits their agenda, and everybody don't earn their keep.
