Surprisingly there are no Ole Miss players. Are they tied to another team?

 

[josebrown]

Yes, they are on the Memphis team roster.

 

[AlCoDog]

I was excited about the Memphis team, and even started looking into season tickets. Then I realized 2 things. The roster is full of Ole Miss and TN players while Birmingham has rights to the State players. Also, the liberty bowl in February and March is one if the coldest places on planet earth. I’ll be rooting for Birmingham.

 

[TheStateUofMS]

I recognize 1 of the several Bama players and that's Blake Sims.

 

[GloryDawg]

I loved to watch some Nick James play football. Get to see it again. Also will Wells be the fastest guy on the team?

Trent Richardson

 

[Shmuley]

There are several Alabama names on the roster. Most of them saw virtually no playing time. Alabama player names you will see on this roster in the future: Nigel Knott, Scott Lashley, Brandon Turnage.

 

[The Fatboy]

You don't recognize Trent Richardson?

I didn't count, but isn't the number a lot more than an NFL team? Maybe they make cuts at some point.

B'ham will play at Legion Field, then in 2 or 3 years move to the new stadium that's allegedly being built near the civic center. They had a groundbreaking a few days ago, but I read that they also had a groundbreaking about 10 years ago for a stadium but it was never built. UAB will also play there when it's finished. It's smaller than Legion Field, but plenty large enough for the Iron and for UAB. The capacity will be about what Davis Wade was before the last refurb.

It's going to be interesting to see how the Spring football league will fare.

 

[The Fatboy]

Looks like this one is actually going to get built.

 

[TrueMaroonGrind]

I will pay money for a Nick James Birmingham Iron Jersey

 

[HotMop]

Over under 1 year for this league.





Under.

 

[Cary Hudson's little bro]

Bama's Chris Black, who transferred out was a 5* recruit

 

[dogstain]

Are these games going to be televised, or will it be streaming only?

 

[RocketDawg]

Yeah, quite a few things are being built in that area. If they can keep it safe all will be well.

 

[Shamoan]

Your one post a year avg, and you are going with that?

 

[dogstain]

Actually, I was Destindog through the mid to early 2000's until I moved from Destin and changed my name to Dogstain. So well less than 1 post per year. I have made 3 posts today, I'm on fire.

I am actually wondering if the games will be televised. The AAF website doesn't say if the games will be televised, but I think I saw where they indicate they are developing an app, which I assumed was for streaming.

 

[Shamoan]

On a heater. Love it. My heaters go pages, but I have a lot of nothing to say.

 

[TheStateUofMS]

Forgot him. That's 2.

 

[jethreauxdawg]

I’m hoping for a Nick James
