Alabama DB announces he's entering the NCAA transfer portal
Alabama freshman DB Scooby Carter was a 4-star player in the 2019 recruiting class, choosing the Crimson Tide over Texas A&M, Oklahoma and others.
This season, he’s appeared in one game, recording only a single tackle. Now, it appears his time in Tuscaloosa has come to an end.
On Monday afternoon, Carter took to Twitter to announce that he was entering his name in the NCAA transfer portal:

Carter was suspended for the Mississippi State game due to an academic issue, and his return for this week was questionable. Now, it appears he’ll explore his other options.
Per the 247Sports composite ratings, Carter was the No. 9 cornerback in the class of 2019 and the No. 15 overall recruit from the state of Texas.
Sounds like a baby.
I’ve said it repeatedly, players are tired of playing for us. They would rather play against us. Even some of those that thought they wanted to play for us, really don’t as evidenced by this article.
They don’t need us to make it to the NFL.
Everyone field interview on T.V. that Saban has, I have to turn down my brightness or i will be blinded by his ever-growing ozone hole.
His increased-pace balding is a metaphor for our program.
Welcome to the new era of NCAA Division I football. Free agency, aka “If I don’t get to start as a freshman, I am leaving.”
They need to dub it “The Butthurt Transfer Portal.
Or the “my name ain’t Kyle Trask Portal”
Wadeless…I have followed Trask’s ascent to the Starting QB at Florida & he really has impressed me…strong arm, smart, looks thru his progressions & makes good decisions and actually understands that there is no “I” in team. And I’ll bet you he is going to graduate and have a career…either in the NFL or in business. Good kid, listens to his coach and has performed very well. Good luck to Kyle in all of his future endeavours.
Fan, I believe Trask has already graduated.
This is what Saban said would happen several years ago. I’m not surprise after hearing that Alabama was the third team he committed to during his recruitment.
He left for the same reason Bo Jackson didn’t go to Alabama. He didn’t get all the playing opportunities that he probably wanted or deserved.
Except Bo was so good, he would’ve changed their minds after the first couple of practices. Bo would’ve gotten on the field by working harder and being better. Most people aren’t Bo.
Maybe the days of Bama getting guys to sit the bench for 3 years to play are over. I hope so, will bring some balance to the conference.
He sees practice and knows the depth chart and talent around him. Once it becomes clear that you won’t be starting where you are, considering a transfer is just logical.
Enjoy TCU, Scooby do.
TCU? The most likely landing spot is OU or A&M by far.
Scooby Undoo.
Good luck elsewhere.
My guess is he is off to join the Sooner Nation.
Sooner Nation.
Kids leave all the time, in today’s “instant gratification world”. If I’m not getting playing time, I’m gone. Gone is the day that an athlete commits and stays at that University. I can see it from both sides, as every signee believes he can make it to the NFL. But everyone doe NOT make it to the NFL.
