What??!!

There is a special on mental health that was done at Bama.  Bryce was sort of championed for normalizing the help.  Which is a good thing.  I mean, these are humans.  And football at the end of the day is just a game. 

Young spoke on the pressure when he got there.  About being in a bad place mentally when he got to Bama (things weren't going his way for the first time really in his football life) and seeking help for it.

Explains why he was benched over a sore ankle. He was going to implode and see nothing but ghosts if we decided to keep him out there at the rate things were going. Smart play by the staff, but a shitty situation for all of us knowing this is our future "guy".

What the entire  f*** man? As much as these draft prospects get dissected why wasnt this ever highlighted? Look, i get it. I think mental health is important but based how this kid was hyped you would think he never had mental health issuses. Stroud was actually microscoped for his dad going to prison, he had to fight his way threw a rough up bringing to get where he is. Bryce was the one who seemed like he has gotten everything handed to him and everything to goes his way and to know he has had mental issuses when things dont would be a red flag in a draft process like it or not.

Good gawd.....the pressure of the NFL and playing on a shat team hopefully doesn't crack him. Not a good look for the GM and coach picking and  pushing a guy who may not be physically ready for the job, nor emotionally/mentally able to handle it.

I mean the calm demeanor and soft spokeness just makes too much sense now. Stuff like this is what makes me hate Alabama and nick saban even more. Alabama not known for putting it out great qbs no more than ohio state,  all this propganda to push this kid so that program and saban can shake that label. I could careless about a college program reputation, i care about the panthers. But this ownership and FO fell for it.

To me though that seems what Tepper has always wanted. He doesn't want a big larger than life character at QB. When they said they were really close on pulling the trigger on Richardson or Bryce and had excluded CJ, I was like we're taking Bryce. Since Tepper got rid of Ron and Cam, have we had a QB over 6'2" who wasn't plain, non seasoned, mushy rice to give to fans?

It was a huge reason I didnt want Corral, nothing personal but playing NFL qb is hard enough without getting into your own head.  Countless examples of people simply losing their mind and never becoming good qbs because of it

      2024 College Football Thread

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game.

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.

      I did, but again we're aware of the practice in college of inflating height/weight as well as what is considered normal and his freshman weight tells a lot. There was a recent Raw Room episode where at one point they were discussing putting on their "big boy weight" when they go to the pros. It's common for guys to have to slap on 20lbs over the summer, but King Dunlap mentioned having to put on 30 and how much of a toll that took on his body. That makes the idea of putting on 50 at the college level even harder to believe. I've got experience with cutting weight and that type of drop sounds just awful... and that's even if doing it healthy and not just turning yourself into a piece of human jerky. Having to add 50? Noooooo thank yoooou. I can understand wanting to take Scourton at face value, but we didn't take Bryce at face value either (and for good reason!). Give the recently posted videos a shot. I watched the one you linked even though I've already seen it, so why not extend the same courtesy? I think you'll find yourself getting more excited about his Purdue tape than you will being irritated by what you believe are false narratives being pushed. 😄
