Ryan Bartow and the BOL staff have confirmed that Nick Saban has granted Alvin Kamara a release to transfer to any school outside of the SEC.
Sources tell us that Kamara met with Saban this week to discuss his future. There have been numerous reports that Kamara has not bought into the Alabama program and it was believed it was in everyone's best interest for him to transfer.
Kamara will be allowed to finish classes if he wants. At this point, he is the only player we are aware of to ask for a release.
"Numerous reports that Kamara has not bought into the Alabama program". WTF does that mean? What kind of cult shit is that?

Did you watch Training Day?
Alvin "Hoyt" Kamara turned down the cash and it made Nick Alonzo's crew nervous. So they have to drop him off at Smiley's.

Wasn't he one of the ones here at AU with Foster trying to recruit our guys to go to UA, when Dismukes saw through the shit and told em to fuck off?
Yeah...Karma Al. You feel it now.

Yup. Dismukes told him, in no uncertain terms, to get the fuck out.

One of the top QBs in the 2015 signing class, Ricky Towns, decomitted from uat. Interesting thing, he initially picked uat over his childhood favorite USC when they had Lane Kiffin as their HC.

Not surprising. He knew Coker was coming, and he can probably start from day 1 at USC. Coker will have two years of eligibility at Alabama and will more than likely be the starter in September. Not saying that Town isn't talented, because he certainly is. And in that sense, Coker sure as fuck better pan out. If he really was nearly even with Winston at FSU as their coaches say, then I feel pretty good.

Or maybe he thinks Lane Kiffin is a useless douchebag. That's another valid theory.

Possibly, but it's a moot point. Bottom line is, if Coker was coming to Alabama, Town wasn't.

You do realize that Town is a 2015 QB recruit...right? Meaning Coker would've been a Senior and Town a incoming Freshman.
But, hey, keep trying to spin it as, "Town is afraid of competition as a incoming Freshman against a Senior."

No I'm sorry the correct answer was the moops.

Even more amazing, Coker and Birmingham have the same dermatologist.

He probably figured out the "We don't get Juco QBs here at bammer. That's what them barners do. We love our own here" line was BS.

Wow. Nice hat. Certainly can already see that he will fill the douchey-yet-redneck-arrogant-prick niche that is an Alabama QB nicely.

*snicker*

Maybe I missed it, but how is he able to transfer without having to sit out a year?

He gradmeates in May.
-
He won't be able to go through the spring with Kiffin, but that's no problem for an All-World QB built in the mold of AJ McTats.
-
He gradmeates in May.
So he will play 1 year or 2?
-
So he will play 1 year or 2?
2 He graduated as a Redshirt Sophomore, so he will technically have 2 years to play 2.
-

Eligible for 2.

So is the SEC office okay with this?

*snicker*
You'll really snicker if Coker doesn't work out, because it will be a fucking train wreck.

will be? Is.
Trying to copy Auburn (again) will meet with predictable (failed) results.

This is an NCAA rule.
The SEC may have an addendum that says if you transfer internally, then you have to sit. But FSU is not in the SEC (just thought I'd let you know)

I don't know if it's an SEC rule but most scholarships don't allow for transfer to at least some in conference schools--at least that's what I've been told. I remember the RB who transferred from UF to us (Blakeny?) had to get special permission from Muschamp in order to come. I think he left soon after transferring anyway.
-
I'm not sure, but I think he has 2 years of eligibility left.

Yes. But Coker is GRADUATING, not transferring. Big difference.
He will have to take a masters in something that FSU does not offer.
-
Just so we are straight...Its okay with the SEC office if a player with 2 years of eligibility left takes advantage of the NCAA loophole where a player can transfer and play immediately in pursuit of his post graduate degree. Yet the SEC will not allow it if the player only has 1 year elgibility left?
or simply..
Russell Wilson + 1 year of elegibility left = Hired assassin.
Jacob Coker + 2 years of elegibility left = Academic scholar.

Well, not really. The only reason Coker is seen as a academic scholar is because he is going to uat. And everybody know uat does not get QBs from the JUCO/XFER ranks. They already got all the good ones.
And we all know why Sims wont get the job.

Don't understand your point, Russell could have come to us, he wasn't barred by the SEC. He choose Wisconsin because in his infinite wisdom Chizik wouldn't guarantee him the starting spot. I mean can you blame him he would have had to compete with Kadizil and Moseley.

I think he's referring to some rule that the SEC came up with and I can't remember the specifics of it. IIRC, it did make transfers more stringent than the NCAA requirements.

And if he would've signed he would've been the last player allowed to do so by the SEC...

Entering last week, four proposals were tied to the SEC's quest of better controlling oversigning in football. A fifth one oddly attached itself to the hot-button topic when SEC Commissioner Mike Slive announced new policies last Friday.
Call it the Jeremiah Masoli rule.
The SEC ended its graduate-student exception allowing players who have graduated to transfer into an SEC school and play their final season of eligibility immediately.
There were about six or seven athletes in the SEC who took advantage of the graduate-transfer rule last year, SEC Associate Commissioner Greg Sankey said. Because the rule won't go into effect until October, free-agent quarterback Russell Wilson could still play at Auburn in 2011.
Graduate-student free agency never sat well with the SEC, which initially voted against it in 2006. Many people in the SEC, including Slive, felt the rule wasn't in their best interests.

Interesting, I don't think I ever saw that rule happen. So saban exploits a loophole again, go figure.

That article says it's no longer allowed, no?
What's the loophole? How is Bama getting their own set of rules this time?

I don't think it's his "final season" of eligibility but I'm not certain. I will use this new web site called googles to find out.
