Re: *** 2016 CB/ATH Shyheim Carter Commits to Alabama ***

Carter just wrapped up his LSU camp today. Here's the latest on him, he finally got an LSU offer but has stated that won't change his solid commitment to Alabama. In fact, sources close to him have mentioned that his inner circle and family , particularly his mother, really want him at Alabama and are 100 % pushing him that way. Great news for us!!Apparently Carter made it known at the camp he was " upset" with the flagship state school for offering him so late. Furthermore he did not want to hang out afterwards to talk to the LSU staff when camp was over. Its along way till 2016 esp. with a highly coveted LA recruit, but as of right now Carter is solid to the good guys. He did mentioned that he will be open to taking his official visits down the line and will listen to what other schools have to sell. Nothing earth shattering there, its recruiting and he knows he is elite. Sit back and enjoy the process.

Are we trading Shyheim to LSU for Dylan? I say we should at least get a third rounder for next year's draft too!

Re: 2016 CB/ATH Shyheim Carter Decommits from Alabama

UGA is the team to keep an eye on for carter's next possible commitment. Carter's teammate committed to UGA for 2017 recently. playing time and young talented depth are factors on his de commitment from sources.

Thanks SJC. We do have a lot of young, good talent at CB which he was projected to play. I don't like losing a guy like him but have faith the staff will target someone else to take his place if we do not get him back in the fold.

Re: 2016 CB/ATH Shyheim Carter Decommits from Alabama

Like SJC, I've seen folks point to UGA as a possible landing spot for Carter. Strange that he goes public with his decision today and the two teams I've seen mentioned with him are UGA and in-state LSU because he just finished a two day trip to Ole Miss.

Well of course everyone is reminding him that Bama has 3 really talented Frosh CBs. Humphrey (RFr), Fitzpatrick and Sheffield. I guess that could make some players "shy" (pun intended) away when other schools are offering you the world and with Ole Myth, even more. LOL.

Well, Trevon Diggs can play CB.......

That is what I was saying, maybe he just didnt want to compete.......I guess other programs must think he cant compete with those 3 players....that is how I would turn it on them.

Re: 2016 CB/ATH Shyheim Carter Decommits from Alabama

Personally, I don't fault a guy for looking at a school that doesn't have a loaded depth chart. We've seen too many highly touted recruits arrive to Tuscaloosa to only get bogged down in the depth chart because of experienced players already on campus.

I wonder if Freeze offered him a guarantee of 4 years Liberty Bowl Participation Rings?

Yeah, but on the other hand we've also seen a guys leave after three years for the NFL. I think that more comes down to if the guy thinks he's ready to play from day one, because we've seen plenty of guys find playing time as true freshman. But... that is contingent not just on ability but on development of course.

Re: 2016 CB/ATH Shyheim Carter Decommits from Alabama

Would love to have his talent on our team, however, the way our program is run is not for everyone. Better to part now than after using a scholarship.

Maybe he changes his mind on what he wants before February 2016.

He just might and I'm sure the staff will not stop recruiting him hard.

I imagine it's really difficult for these guys to come in and work as hard as they do and not get to play right away, but that's just validation of how solid the program is.

Re: 2016 CB/ATH Shyheim Carter Decommits from Alabama

Look out for knott. He's been number one for months on our board. He recently got injured but should be making a decision within the next few months. The guy is a freak corner. And yes I know a guy from Mississippi. Also, carter may or may not come back but the staff will continue to recruit him among other guys like Hardeman I miss spelled that but kid from Georgia. Also, warrior is our number one safety and we've made huge inroads and taken the lead for him.
