. Wow I didn’t know that.Kwon Alexander wanted to come to Bama and we passed .
He had injury issues and he was undersized at the time. Did not matter and it was a big miss on our part.. Wow I didn’t know that.
As I recall, injuries plagued him in college. I was hoping to land him as well.I remember really wanting 2013 recruit DT Eddie Vanderdoes. I thought he was really going to be special. He signed and a National Letter of Intent with Notre Dame, then quickly asked to be released so he could sign with UCLA. An NCAA appeals committee ended up deciding he could sign with the Bruins, with no penalty. He went to UCLA and was a third round NFL draft choice of the Raiders in 2017.
Didn't Zach actually become the starting quarterback for Cal one season?Keenan Allen out of Greensboro. Favorite recruit in 2010 until a NC-based handler got involved and demanded a scholarship for Allen's half-brother, quarterback Zach Maynard. CNS quickly cut bait. The handler, as I recall, eventually went to prison.
A year or two after he went to Cal I spoke at a minimum security prison in NC. While there an inmate struck up a conversation about football, UA and CNS. He had been an assistant coach and had some relationship with KA. I never asked why he was in prison...he may have been the handler. He did say that CNS was really upset that KA didn't sign with Bama...but Bama had no room for his half-brother.Keenan Allen out of Greensboro.

Except Mark Richt wanted to make him a DE. Which , given the money difference between NFL DE’s and RB’s, that may have been a good thing for DH.Henry. Best RB in the history of HS football. He was a can't miss recruit who was going to win a championship wherever he landed.
There was some debate here whether he should be a linebacker.Except Mark Richt wanted to make him a DE. Which , given the money difference between NFL DE’s and RB’s, that may have been a good thing for DH.
Might still be in the NFL. Once they adapted to the running quarterback again his numbers plummeted. He could’ve been Antonio Gates part 2Richt wanted to make Cam Newton a tight end. Shrewd judge of talent.
