Re: RB Joshua Jacobs Updates

and isn't A. Thomas a linebacker? Thats impressive too.

I didn't realize D. Harris is that fast.
I did not notice Adonis and yes he is a LB. BTW, love the name.

That is why Damien is/was one of our return guys on kick-off. He has some jets, just has not had a chance to show it much.

Re: RB Joshua Jacobs Updates

Feedback on his visit? Based on hearing little so far today, are we assuming this fellow is a "we'll know Feb 3" ?

Sure would like another RB with Emmons in this class.

Re: RB Joshua Jacobs Updates

According to Barton Simmons 247 staff, a close source indicates it's a battle between Alabama and Missouri for Jacobs. Depth is a concerned for him according to the source. Aside from Bo and Harris, Jacobs need to realize that he can battle for playing time against Gore and Marks and Marks is not your every down back. Furthermore Emmons is not a guarantee to qualify. You can't have too many backs on the roster and it's not like the NFL is calling for you after your freshman season. Not too mention, rotation of backs will be hugely beneficial for his health and longevity. I hope he sees the bigger picture down the road.

24/7 CB says Bama 57% OU 43%. Guess we'll see.

Re: ***RB Josh Jacobs commits to Bama***

I thought I had heard he had just earned a 4th Star? Maybe there wasn't consensus? It looks like the system he was playing him held his evaluation back more than anything. We can work with those tools though.
