2021 Prospect: 2021 Recruiting Targets

[gtowntide]

Great news! Welcome and Roll Tide Jalen Milroe!

 

[TiderJack]

Jalen Milroe just flipped from Texas to Alabama! RTR! I told you all a few weeks ago, Bama wanted a QB in this class, and they got one.

Wow. What a great pull this is and we got our elite QB for this class.

 

[Tiderollin32]

Love getting the quarterbacks named Jalen out of TX

 

[Evil Crimson Dragon]

Well, this class is certainly shaping up to be a great one!.....now, let’s finish it and get the rest of them

 

[Down4ttown]

Oline - check
QB - check
RB - check
WR - check
DL and DB need some work still
LB’s - check
This class is going to have it all

 

[Mke4Bama]

I'd take those as well as the Milroe kid IF he decided to flip.............man, that would sting the Horns real good

Didn`t they just get a commitment from a kid who`s supposed to be " generational " at QB ?

Yeah, he’s supposed to be really good......:

I don’t think we’ve gotten a RB commit just yet. Any idea of who it is or will be?

We are loaded at RB I don't think they are taking one unless it is a very elite guy. Look for us to focus back on that position in the next recruiting cycle.

We are loaded but we will be losing two this year and I agree the RB will need to be elite. 5* Camar Wheaton from TX is the main target but he is trending to OU. The 3* kid from Texas discussed earlier may be another one (he will be a 4* soon) if the coaches want one in this class and we miss on Wheaton.

He will definitely be one to look for in the ‘22 class!

 

[JustNeedMe81]

what about Camar Wheaton ? I've seen his name mentioned couple of time.

Who is he?

 

[JustNeedMe81]

RB. https://247sports.com/Player/Camar-Wheaton-46050152/

Favored to land at Oklahoma. he's a 5 star RB.

 

[deliveryman35]

I know he’s committed elsewhere, but are we still recruiting Latrell McCutchin?

Not sure if we are but I would not doubt it. I did see we are still in contact with an Oregon commit (don't know the name since premium article). I'm sure we are pursuing KoolAid real hard and Marshall who committed to FLA. It looks like we want to add 1 or 2 more CB's to this class.

DT 4 star Tim Keenan is announcing this Saturday. I posted awhile back that many believe he's not a take for Bama and Georgia has made him a priority. it looks like Alabama may take him after all according to Tim Watts of BOL. its still unclear at this point esp. due to the tight numbers particularly on the DL. unfortunately he's not really a fan favorite ( barely 6 feet tall with short arms and not very flexible) , but what the hell do we know

Keenan had a nice season opener with a scoop and score, sack and several tackles.
just a reminder, many Bama fans weren't too excited about another in-state DT 2 years back ( DJ Dale) and we all know how that turned out...

Tim Keenan, Alabama Crimson Tide, Defensive Line

2019: As a junior, helped Birmingham Ramsay to a 10-3 record and an Alabama 5A state quarterfinal appearance.

I re-watched his junior year highlight video and he does run better than I recalled. I think if he plays in the 320 lb range he can be a factor at Bama. I guess we will see if Watts is correct this weekend.
