Re: King Kongbo not visiting Bama now
While I get what you're saying, JB, facts are facts. They've beaten us two years running and they were the second best team in the best conference in America. Clearly, some things (legal and otherwise) are going on in Oxford.

That's a fair point. No denying that, but other teams have beaten Bama in the past and they look a whole lot more interesting than Oxford. Still, I guess Freeze is getting it done somehow. I would rather play for championships than win a few games.

Re: King Kongbo not visiting Bama now
IDK, Bama is not the easiest place to be especially if you are self-centric. Our approach is discipline not stardom. He probably sees all these other major recruits gravitating to us and wants to go where there is less competition to get on the field immediately. No big deal. Next!

The rumor is we secured someone higher on our board and told him we didn't have a spot.

Re: King Kongbo not visiting Bama now
That makes more sense. Otherwise why would he eliminate us from his list instead of someone else?
Re: King Kongbo not visiting Bama now
So because this player eliminated Alabama from his list, Ole Miss pays players (evidence please), the player was afraid of competition, he wasn't good enough, and we broke up with him first. Hundreds of players every year choose to go to a different university than Alabama. Why can't it just be personal preference? Why does someone have to be inadequate, incompetent, or dishonest? This sounds like what I have to listen to about us from UT people here in Tn. I just don't understand. How long will it be before CJM and CKS are trashed when then get players that Alabama wanted? Personally, I believe with everyone spying on everyone, especially in the SEC, high profile programs are cleaner now than they have ever been. The risk factor is just too great.

Re: King Kongbo not visiting Bama now
That's tough. He probably ends up at ole miss. Well land another d lineman, no big deal.

Re: King Kongbo not visiting Bama now
He was told we prefer a high school player over a one/two year JuCo. If we have secured another player along his lines, that makes perfect sense. Dropping us maybe face saving on his part, or he's gone all ....y pants. We'll be fine without him, just like we were without several others who went elsewhere.
Re: King Kongbo not visiting Bama now
Terrell Hall and Jeffrey Simmons are both 5* DE that are both visiting this weekend and we are very high on that play the same position so your comment may be true.
Re: King Kongbo not visiting Bama now
The Carter kid out of Georgia sounds like he's coming, too, though he's a good deal bigger than Kongbo

Re: King Kongbo not visiting Bama now
You would be incredibly wrong concerning Ole Miss. Common sense dictates many different things. There are enough red flags concerning the crew in Oxford to fill a warehouse. I expect time will tell that story. College football recruiting may be dirtier now than ever due to the pressure to win on coaches who are way over-paid and the NCAA's lack of enforcement. The rewards are worth the risk these days.

Re: King Kongbo not visiting Bama now
Yep, Carter is more of an inside guy and hope we get him.
Re: King Kongbo not visiting Bama now
From what I know and have gathered, Kongbo wasn't happy to be told to rescheduled next weekend. plus, Tennessee is back on him hard which makes sense since he was once committed to them. reading his articles, he sounds all over the place from missing home/ wanting to be near family to looking around for immediate playing time.
as far as securing another replacement, staff is very high on Jamar King who is also a JUCO prospect.
as others have mentioned, Terrell Hall and Michail Carter are priorities too.

Re: King Kongbo not visiting Bama now
All the physical talent in the world will be of little value to us if the player does not buy in to the Saban program. Let's face it, it isn't easy, and it is not for everyone.
We will be better off with someone who WANTS to take advantage of what Alabama can do for him. Don't KNOW this to be the case with JK, but it isn't a crazy supposition based on recent behaviors.
