Phillip Ely considering transfer from Alabama

[TheChief]

I certainly can not blame a kid for transferring. It's just inevitable sometimes. At the end of the day, the players have to do what is best for them. That's it. These kids are only kids once. Ely has a VERY small window of time to play ball. Now is the time to do it, and he has to go to the place that gives him the best chance to do just that. In a few short years from now, he won't be "old" per se, but he will be older. He can't sit on the bench somewhere until he's well into his mid-20's. It doesn't work that way. I hope he does well at USF.

As for the generational thing, well, that's just funny. All I know is, age don't mean squat! I have witnessed some much older people (well past 50) do some very immature things. (Like laughing about gas passing). And, I have met some people under the age of 30 who were very mature and down to earth.

You don't? Man, that's funny stuff. Don't tell me God didn't have a sense of humor.

Ever do one in the shower that sounded like a duck?

Now, tell me you didn't laugh.

Ah, yeah, the old duck sound!

Chase Goodbread said the "Phillip Ely transfer" was just internet rumor. He has spoken with his parents / viable sources and they all confirm the Philip will be competing for the backup QB job this spring at Bama.

Certainly good to hear.

Was about to post the same thing. Dude was obviously looking for an argument, but still. All of this for a rumor that wasnt even true. Furthermore, he was ready to commit character assassination based off an Internet rumor.

Welcome to the internet my friend, where facts do not matter.

I was glad to hear Rodney Orr put this rumor to rest Tuesday night. I will say this, similar scuttle about Phillip Simms was going on around this time and then he left AFTER the A Day game. Not saying it's gonna happen but it could happen the same way.

Exactly, lots of things can still happen after spring practice.
