    Why is Alabama able to get their juniors to come back for their senior season on defense?

    "Loving their coach" don't pay the bills. Really, how does Bama get 'em to come back?

    LSU players love their coach as well. Take a guy like Alfred Blue, he was granted another year of eligibility. He could have come back and been Hill's number 2, and improved his draft stock. Instead he declared and didn't get drafted. Ware, Simon, Ford, Hunter, Alexander all left as 4 or lower round picks. Hunter was a 3rd rounder though. It just doesn't make sense. Didn't Anthony Johnson declare too a year early? Why?

    I don't get it either. Bama fan say it is to win championships. Maybe it's just me, but the lure of NFL money would be hard to turn down. CFB titles don't pay the bills either. NFL does.

    alfred blue did get drafted, #181overall player taken in the 2014 nfl draft. In the 6th round, just where he was projected for a player with a rebuilt knee.

    Oh, thought he was a free agent. Still, 6th is low as hell.
