Although not a surprise, Alabama Football fans were disappointed on Saturday when 5-Star, Perry Thompson flipped to the Aubies. The change will be only a blip on the Crimson Tide’s future roster radar. Not that Thompson lacks the potential to become an outstanding player. He could become a game-changer for Hugh Freeze. Auburn is woefully short in such elite talent. Nick Saban will just add another highly talented prospect instead.
The Aubies are celebrating the flip. That will go on through August fall camps across the SEC. Auburn fans can continue to rejoice after week one of the season, following what will be a massive beatdown on the worst FBS team, UMass.
