There’s not really much to write about Mercer, is there? The definition of a paycheck slaughter if ever there were one. Alabama’s walk-ons could beat that team by 35 points and not break much of a sweat doing it.

His remarks following yesterday’s session were...shall we say, animated?
Among some of the choice gems was this jab at player intensity:
“Then we come out Monday not ready to practice, I guess because of respect we have for the opponent,” Saban said with a touch of sarcasm while winding up for the main message.
