Exactly. No one is going to get grand-fathered in on Jimbo's team. If you take a step back (independent if it was in the players control or not) you have to earn your way back onto the field. That's a great motivator for those who get injured rather than thinking they'll take that time as a bit of a vaca and ensures we have the best people on the field at that time. We should be embracing the competitive environment if we want to be Bama.

Foster basically didn't practice in the spring / offseason and showed up to training camp completely out of shape apparently - why he was banged up day 1 of camp

Wykoff put in the work, and is being rewarded

---

Not arguing with you because I wouldn't know, but how do you throw in the offseason and still manage to show up out of shape? I know there is time between the end of track and field and the start of fall camp, but still...

---

Foster didn't workout all off-season is the rumor mills spring hall he couldn't do anything because of shot put so just stopped showing up

Basically he ****ed around, and is finding out his spot wasn't guaranteed if he didn't work

---

I've stayed out of pretty much all conversations but have to step in now that people are attacking the character and work ethic of our kid. Bryce was most definitely not out of shape and didn't "**** around" all spring. In fact he actually was a lean 315 during throwing season and got significantly stronger during the summer compared to last fall. I'm all for open discussion but please refrain from being a POS.

Let the best man play / start. Glad we have depth.

I mean when your teammate (robinson) calls you out without naming you, it's not being a POS lol

I'd like a little insight on this as well. Every time I've heard Layden refer to Bryce has been very positive and has been quoted saying as he had been great transition from track back to football. I might have missed something though.

If he didn't name him how do you know it was him he called out?

All of these people so confident in Foster starting have a different opinion than Liucci

That's the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me.
