The hype train

Alabama's starting left tackle just got arrested on felony gun charges. Alabama also gave a former 5 star JUCO olineman the boot.

Things happen

 

Well that's it. Alabama is going 8-4 according to Indy

 

Want to bet?

 

Has Robinson been told to take a walk? Last I heard, he hadn't, and they were saying 1-2 game suspension, max.

And let's not sit here and pretend that he's anywhere near as valuable to his team as guys like Hurd or Dobbs are to ours.

 

Why are you doing this again?

 

I believe you were offered the dobbs or Hurd pass and frankly Robinson is more valuable than Hurd. He's being charged with a felony. I don't think he comes back

 

Maybe we can organize a consolation bet on whether Robinson plays this season?

 

No shot

 

there is a reason why tackles are drafted with regularity high in the NFL draft and only two rbs over the prior (what 10 years?) fit that bill

 

I'll bet anyone he won't

 

I assumed you were defining value as their value to their teams, not their draft stock.

 

I'd say there is a significant difference between the value of RBs in the NFL and the SEC.

 

I am. The value to their teams is shown in draft stock

 

I'll offer you a free second to retract that before I go into how utterly moronic that is.

 

Probably , but unless you have fournette I don't think that gap narrows enough have a rb be worth more than a projected first round left tackle

 

I guess you think Jared goff is the best player in the 2016 draft?

 

What are you talking about? If you think Robinson is worth more to Bama than Hurd is to UT you are outside your mind.

 

Why? Because Alabama is good? There isn't a coach on earth that wouldn't trade Hurd straight up for a first round NFL tackle

 

This isn't as bad of an argument as arguing Nick Foles is better than Cam, but it's pretty bad.

 

Wait, are you arguing against your own argument here?
