Re: DE/LB Jarez Parks commits at 9am CT

Wow that would be pretty remarkable to get a 4-Star Grayshirt. Kid must REALLY want to be here.

How we not have a scholarship for him NOW though with all the transfers, graduating seniors, and NFL draftees leaving?? I thought we had room for 4-5 extra guys going into today??
If my numbers are correct, 12 seniors, 3 leaving early, and the 2 QB transfers.

Without knowing hard numbers, we're signing 25...so there are no extra spots available scholarship wise. We'll have more attrition likely just to fit this entire class.

We still have three committed not signed yet the kicker, James, and Brannan so it may be room before it is all said and done.

Again, if Parks knew months ago that Bama it was ... then sign the dotted line! Waiting is always risky with Bama! I just wish the media would stop slamming us like we did something wrong!

Re: DE/LB Jarez Parks commits at 9am CT

I have a ton of respect for this kid. It sucks that the stupid SEC signing limit leaves him hanging like this, but it appears he's going to do what it takes to play at Alabama. Those are the kind of guys you want, and to reiterate, it's the stupid SEC signing limit that brought this about. Without that he could have has his ceremony, signed, and may be, if he had to end up delaying his enrollment. Instead Alabama has to tell him to hold off because once again the SEC has a stupid rule that only the SEC has.

No he's going JC route and hopefully qualify in Jan.
Where was that reported? I know Markail has grade concerns, but I haven't seen anything saying he's going to JUCO.

Bama already announced he's signed, too.

I work with a guy very close to the Central program, according to him Benton has no grade issues take it for what it is worth.

Very possible since he's got a 4.0 GPA.
If this young man has the academic chops a grey shirt could be very advantageous to him. It lets him get some classes under his belt before clock starts ticking on his athletic eligibility. If pro ball is not there in three or four years, he could get much of his masters degree paid for as well.
