Gump Day: Actual sports! Tide Football begins mandatory workouts!

Boils and Ghouls, we have actual honest-to-god sports news today.

Yesterday, the University of Alabama Crimson Tide began its mandatory workouts for the TBD fall season. But, not everyone was attendance...and aside from that, there’s not much to report from these conditioning workouts.

Still, I wouldn’t read too much into player absences. On Monday, Cecil Hurt reported that most players would be available, but that some would not be around.

Though it had been expected, the pickup of 4-star Texas LB Kendrick Blackshire was nevertheless a big one.

The recruiting plan for the Tide has been pretty self-evident leading into the meat of the ESP recruiting fights: Linebackers and Wideouts.
