Rivals' latest article says 2011 Valley (Ala.) safety Enrique Florence — expected to be one of the very best in-state players next year — has named Alabama as his new leader after camping at Bama.
He had previously named Auburn his leader, but said he never really had very strong feelings about them. He also said all his family are Bama fans, and his mom wants him to go to Bama.
Why would he name Auburn his leader in the first place if the above is true. Makes no sense. Great news, nonetheless.
Looks like Coach Saban and staff are already well on the way to locking up the top ten prospects in the state of Alabama for 2011.

I said in the prospects thread at the top that it wouldn't take Florence long to re-think his decision to have the barn out in front, and well there you go.

WR Maurice Harris a HS teammate of Keenan Allen has an Alabama verbal offer. He was offered after attending the Nick Saban Crimson Tide Camp II. Harris has expressed interest in playing with Keenan Allen in college.

I'm just going to give everyone a heads up. I'll electronically slap the first person who raises a question about this kids speed because of his listed forty time. I'm just sayin', you've been warned.

With that said, give me game day speed over "listed" speed anyday of the week, twice on Saturday.

I'd say that is pretty fast considering he is asleep.

Imagine how fast he is when awake.
Nicely done. He does look like he's napping!

Does anyone have news about WR Pat Milliner from Millbrook? I would think he's related to DeMarcus, as they are both from the same hometown.
