LEGACY SNATCHED: Alabama Crimson Tide to SNAG Kenneth Simon in Recruiting POWER MOVE

April 29, 2026·34 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Alabama Crimson Tide are poised to flip Tennessee legacy linebacker Kenneth Simon, shaking up SEC recruiting dynamics. Can the Crimson Tide outmaneuver Tennessee for this blue-chip defender? Luke Robinson and Jimmy Stein break down Simon’s pedigree, on-field versatility, and the rapidly shifting landscape shaped by NIL demands and the transfer portal. The conversation also highlights Brentwood Academy’s impact as a recruiting hotbed and debates whether recruiting rankings still carry weight in the era of portal parity. Attention turns to Alabama’s bold offer to mammoth 2028 quarterback Charles Scott. With “preposterous” arm strength and a frame reminiscent of Ben Roethlisberger, could Scott be a program-changing talent or just a future position switch candidate? The hosts also spotlight walk-on wide receiver Cooper Mollison and tackle the controversial expansion of the NCAA basketball tournament to 76 teams—raising big questions about tradition, fan impact, and the future of college sports.
