Jaylen Mbakwe

He had to let that route develop across the field too, right? Yeah.

With Mbakwe in coverage on that second one.

Yeah.

Hell of a play.

Hell of a drive.

Hell of a game.

was better than I expected.

Um, I think there's plenty of talent there.

Now they do need the guys coming off, off major injuries, you know, Parsons, Mbakwe, um, Wyatt.

They need those guys, and Tu- and Tucker Kraft.

They need those guys to come back and be good players, and that's asking a lot 'cause with those injuries they had, not everybody does come back as strong.

He just wasn't going to play here at Alabama.

Georgia Tech, some of these guys, I mean, I got to tell you, I'm a little frustrated over the Mbakwe situation, how that worked.

His insistence on moving to wide receiver, which was spurned, by a dalliance with the – spurred because of a dalliance with the portal.

I hate how that worked out.

100%.

Any other depth chart takeaways from you fellows? Is Mbakwe starting over Cree Thomas or Boo Carter then, CMC Glazer?

Yeah.

I mean, he would have no leg to stand on with that because he doesn't have any production.

Uh, they, they don't wanna be in shootouts.

Um, I do think, you know, this defense has gotten, uh, they've got a few transfers, some Alabama kids, uh, Noah Carter, uh, edge rusher, Jaylen Mbakwe is gonna play cornerback.

You know, he was an athlete at Alabama that didn't quite get to settle into a position, but he is 100% cornerback and, and maybe punt returner here now.

Those guys are gonna have to show up.

And it's different.

I know he had the podcast with Mbakwe, and he's still a kid.

And I'm not pretending that he's not.

But I think it was media day.
