Milso and Debra (prayers)

I just got off of the phone with our old friend Mike (Milso) and I just wanted to give a quick update. I know many of you thru the years heard Mike mention his wonderful wife Debra and I know that someone (possibly Ducky) mentioned that she was going thru some health issues about a month ago.
They still have not figured out what’s going on, she has a procedure tomorrow and then an upcoming visit with another “specialist” soon. Debra has now lost over 60 pounds and they just can’t find an explanation. I ask Mike if I could mention this on the board because I know many of you really care about he and his family.
Being believers Mike told me that all prayers for his family are appreciated so keep them in your hearts and minds right now during this concerning time. Thanks to everyone!

ROLL TIDE!!!!

CKD last night in Mobile talked about the 24’ roster…

and how he thought that it might be a better roster than last season’s roster. On offense I believe he is 100% correct. Defensively? Losing 3 NFL drafted DB’s and Downs…losing 3 NFL drafted guys from the front 7 is going to be tough to replace. The defensive depth should be really good and extremely talented…I hope CKD is right.
