Alabama has “too may nice guys, not enough dawgs” says former Tide national champion

Alabama fans have been scratching their heads in trying to figure out this team.

People cannot seem to diagnose the problem, but one former Crimson Tide player has the answer.

Mike McCoy, a native of Brandon, Miss., played wide receiver at Alabama from 2006 to 2009. He was on Nick Saban’s first national championship team and was a leader at receiver. As the founder of Maximum Performance Institute, the athletic trainer kept things real with Touchdown Alabama Magazine. McCoy said this team has “too many nice guys, not enough dawgs” on it.

One can’t be nice in a violent sport, especially when competing for championships.
