Fox Nation’s The Tides That Binds: Inside Alabama Football featured the Tide’s wide receiver coach JaMarcus Shephard going off on the Tide wideouts in episode one.
The clip garnered a lot of attention.
“I’m tired of sugar coating for people in this room anymore,” Shephard said while talking to Alabama wide receivers in a meeting. “I’m not sugarcoating. It’s a telltale sign that our two receivers who have the most production in the room are the two taking notes right now…We gotta want it. Everybody wants to be cute. All these weak ass haircuts y’all got, all pristine. Ain’t nobody got no dog in them.”
Germie Bernard was asked about his reaction to seeing the episode of the docuseries.
“That’s him every day,” Bernard said. “My reaction to that is you listen to what he says, but it’s not how he says it, it’s what he’s saying. I watched the first episode, but I haven’t really watched any of the other episodes. But coach, he going to be him every single day. We used to it by now.
Alabama football’s wide receiver room will look to be more productive as a whole in 2025 with the return of Ryan Williams and Bernard.
