Re: GA. Wide receiver Tyler Simmons commits to Alabama

This is a head scratcher to me. Do we still have room for A J Brown and Keith Gavin? Those guys are much better to me. If he had speed to burn, I might understand, but he gets caught from behind a lot. No flame please.

Him going public today after possibly being a silent commit for months indicates he got the clear from the staff. The numbers game is fine.

Replaces Riley. He is a burner. Very fast. We wanted Riley but he shocked the staff by going with USCe. Obviously Riley wanted to be his own man. But we got a speed merchant in this guy. I have not seen him get caught from behind.

Not as highly ranked as Ridley and like someone mentioned already our staff was shocked by his announcement, and that news is what allowed this commit to come out. But this guy looks like a pretty good replacement, and I would rather have him than a player that commits to us just because his brother plays for us.

Re: ***WR Tyler Simmons commits to Bama***

On jet sweeps where someone had an angle or after he juked someone.... kid is a ball player and very smooth. Not a 3 star, imo.
My point is he was getting caught by high school players. It will be a whole new ball game as you know when he gets to Bama. I hope I am wrong and you are right.

Glory, I'm with RTO on this one. Never saw him caught from behind. Saw him tackled after he outran or broke the tackles of 5 guys and the sixth one got him.

I wouldn't worry to much about being right or wrong, that is coach Saban and his assistants job. None of us on a fan forum will be in jeopardy of losing our jobs if he turns out to be a flop. I do think coach Saban and staff have done an exemplary job in recruiting and developing so far in his tenure. No worries here for me! ;)
