Now the mean part of me says it couldnt happen to a nicer snake in the grass than kirby. What irritates me is when he left for Georgia i remebered thinking well wishes for him but now i hope we playthem and then proceed to beat them 59-0 and it would be poetic justice to have 4 or five of their players flip on them :biggrin:

For the most part, CNS is going to get the kids he wants, regardless of the ratings, and develop them according to his plan.
Relax...and enjoy the Process.
we are incredibly fortunate.

I've heard it both ways.............but I have also heard that some of them think they will get more playing time early at UGA..............I think Bama will do alright In any case
Well, I don't think it's beyond the realm of possibility that Smart would engineer last second flips to UGA. If he could enlist kids to tie up slots until the very last, then flip when it's too late to recover, yeah, I could see that. Pretty scummy...but hey!

I think it's very possible.............probably has already happened, especially with the whole rumored picture thing. However, it's going to be difficult if they don't get immediate playing time, especially if that was what was promised to get the flip...... The good thing about Dean is he hasn't committed anywhere, and I think Bama still has an excellent shot at him.............but it's a game of chance with many of these kids, being as impressionable as they are

The opportunity for Dean to come in and start for Bama or at least get playing time is excellent. Chances are that Wilson will go early to the NFL and open a spot for playing time. I don't know if anyone else Dean is considering can offer that. I know he's close to his family(mother) so the fact that we are closer couldn't hurt! I hope he'll Roll with the Tide!

Been happening. It’s the latest fad among coaches with the “I’m gonna outsmart Nick” syndrome.

Any good news or bad news?

I heard a local radio guy say that it looks like Dean is down to LSU and Ole Miss. The radio guy mentioned this during a discussion on a different subject; it was not a recruiting discussion and he is not a "recruiting expert" but he is part of local sports talk radio and community. I don't remember his name; just recognize the voice when I'm flipping channels... (Dean's school, Horn Lake, MS is local to Memphis.)

Not the case at all.... Bama/UGA neck and neck with LSU third, IMO.

Playing time at Alabama is decided by the player himself. IF he is good enough, IF he can learn the playbook, and IF he does not miss assignments. IF all those things happen, the kid will play as a freshman. We have had so many freshmen play and, in some cases, start. CNS will play those kids who give him the best opportunity to win -- doesn't matter if they are freshmen.

Read these recent updates on Dean and the Eagles came to mind, Crystal Ball prognostications make it sound like he’s “Alllllll Ready Gone.” Hope they are wrong

At least according to 247 he`s not been on campus since June and his official was in April (? ). If number of visits was any indication, he`ll be a rebel.....shark...black bear... type thing..whatever the hell they are this week( ??? ). Anyhow, I`d say it doesn`t look/sound good. Come on over Henry!!

Dont pay attention to the Crystal balls unless its Tim or Hank the rest are honestly following the visits or guessing. Tim & hank wait until they get a great feel for it
