Agreed on Cunningham. Big kid but seems to be a one gap DT, does not appear to have much quickness or speed.
It`s tough right now no doubt, but we`re not to a point where we just need bodies. I certainly don`t expect that to be the case as long as CNS is at Alabama.

After this weekend, I have to think we just need to be patient to see what coaches are fired or leave on their own.

This is true. It`s going to be a jumble ( and a jungle ) out there. Hard to imagine everybody that`s committed right now standing pat.

Agreed, there is a lot of football yet to play this season AND major turmoil at many of our rivals regarding coaching turnover. I suspect we will get exactly what we need in this cycle. We are going to get our guys and it will most certainly come at another school's expense.

For reference purposes, we are currently #16 in the 247 w/ 12 commits. Our average points per player is currently #6 which is best in the SEC and with the higher profile guys we are after and expect to sign it will get higher. A couple of our commits (OL Bell/ATH Jackson) will get big bumps when they re-evaluate. Clemson is currently #18 with 11 commits and I expect us and them to finish top 5 if not top 3.

Wait, you mean CNS hasn't forgot how to recruit like some apparently think???

Re: DL Caleb Tremblay

Clemson is getting all the CB's right now. I just think and hope when it gets to crunch time Saban and staff will close on him. Rarely do we lose a top 2-3 player to an out of state team.
Went and seen Ross play tonight kid is the real deal. I hope we get him he had a unbelievable one hander tonight for a touchdown with a db draped all over him. Henry Ruggs brother was playing in the game as well he is a baller too. Plays both defense and offense.

I do most of my reading from my phone so I have trouble with the blue font. I'm sure he's a solid source.

Our friendship goes back over 20 years. We swap information semi-regularly. I'd admit he usually knows something before I know it... :)

Aaron Suttles said on twitter that judging by the current buzz, Alabama is poised to close strong in its 2018 recruiting class.
It appears to me that we`re in good shape to meet our needs at DB and DE. Just need to find a couple of DT`s , ideally that would be game ready by next year. Certainly could include a JUCO. Otherwise. we may have to slide someone who`s better suited for DE. Interested in everyone`s opinion on this.
