just a heads up, Blackshire announced on his Twitter page yesterday that he will be committing soon.
all the major sites have CB him to Alabama. as I posted last week, Blackshire has been a silent commit for quite sometime per insiders and it was just a matter of when not if he was going to make it public.

This guy already has a SEC body and is a thumper. Probably needs to work a little on his speed but going to be a good one. These last 2 classes of ILB and OLB is going to be epic.

He doesn’t look like he is in high school. Reminds me of how developed physically Shane Lee was last year coming out of high school.

He's already dropped 15-20lbs...and the new S&C team will definitely get him where he needs to be..

Appears to have spent his entire missed Junior season in the weight room. Unbelievable muscular development.

Some of you may remember Derick Oden from Hillcrest Tuscaloosa. He was jacked too when he was a senior. This guy may be a little bigger though.

My son and I were in the end zone seats at the LSU game, when he made the goal line stand. Never forget the play. Marvin ended up breaking his leg on that play. LSU wanted time put back on the clock to be able to run another play. Which they did not. When we were outside the stadium. There was fights breaking out. I ended up knocking two LSU fans off of a Bama fan. Police jumped in quickly. It was total chaos down there.

anyone remember Keith McCants?

Looks like Tarzan, plays like GODZILLA. Or at least I'm hoping. This is a guy i think has been on bama's radar for years. Good for him to be so dedicated in the weight room, it's only a part of the deal, but it's a good start. Hoping to hear good news soon.

You can tell he is dedicated in the weight room but I think some of it is genetics also.

I remember that play like it just happened. I hated it for Constant the kid could have been special.If memory serves that ended his career.

Most of us could work out 18/7 and not look like that...but he has had to work hard to achieve that success. Good for him...
