Reminds me of qb resse commitment or maybe bray Hubbard. Won't be ranked high but he will rise a bit. Impressed the staff at camp enough to get an offer. Great frame and size really good sideline to sideline but could add some speed.

A developmental guy but remeber no one knew anything about qb Reese and he had a great camp this spring and out worked a lot of blue chips guys.

Worth the time to develop

If these are his 9th grade stats starting for the varsity then he's a player.
I did a little digging on him. It was indeed for the varsity. He finished the regular season with 43 TDs and 0 interceptions, so I guess these stats are including playoffs. He went 17/18 and 7 TDs in his first game as a 9th grader and he threw for 696 yards and 8 TDs in the regular season finale lol.

no matter what he wont be in the class and thats not a bad thing. Nolan is the one to watch. Golding still in there but likely ND.
Golding under-achieved as a DC in Tuscaloosa, and I absolutely do not understand why Saban kept him for so long.

Still, the guy is a great recruiter. But Ole Miss vs. Notre Dame? For a list of reasons as long as my arm, I'm going ND every time.

Those stats would be good against air.

Certainly helps his dad is a coach and big bro is about to be a star at Bama!!!

And I will add after watching his highlight video he is an instinctive, athletic LB that can run. I really like this pick-up.

Good morning old friends,
Not sure how many of you remember me, but it has for sure been a while. Life changed for me the last couple of years. I took a leap of faith, stepped away from my 9 to 5, and started my own company. It has truly been a blessing, but took away a lot of my free time.

I will say that I am very impressed with this new staff, and the direction that things are heading under them. We have had a really good week so far in recruiting and I expect that to continue into July. Our WR class should be wrapped up by this time next week. Anticipate us finishing with Cedarian Morgan, Brian Williams Jr, and Owen Cabell. This staff definitely has a WR type that they love with the smallest of this group being 6'3. Also, the LB Xavier Griffin should be announcing for Bama this Sunday. This has been a BATTLE behind scenes. Like with our recent 5 star addition at RB, EJ Crowell, Texas has been pulling out all of the stops, and offering crazy amounts of money. The familiarity with the state, originally being from Alabama, development and scheme fit, and relationship with our staff is what put us over the top. He and his mother are also huge Bama fans which is always a plus, but doesn't guarantee you a kid in today's recruiting landscape like it did before NIL. Huge recruiting win for this staff. Also, anticipate us adding 5 star safety Jireh Edwards when he announces in July. We could potentially be done at DB after his addition unless a CB or S that you just can't turn down decides to double back. Offensive line wise, we have two really good guard prospects in Chris Booker and Sam Utu. Both are projected at guards, but also are versatile and have the ability to play tackle. Utu was recruited as a tackle/guard, and UGA was trying to flip Booker and was talking to him about playing tackle. Really good evals by this staff especially Booker. We were on him and took his commitment before other big schools got involved. At tackle, things aren't as clear, but I anticipate us taking one and being done. Deacon Schmitt will most likely not be Bama. I think Oklahoma has the edge, but don’t quote me on that. I hadn't been updated on his recruitment in a while. Once a kid starts leaning elsewhere unless I hear something different about us having a shot, I stop asking for updates. The staff would have loved to have Malakai Lee who committed to Michigan yesterday just like the DL Titan Davis who committed to Michigan earlier this week. The staff will stay in communication and still pursue especially in Davis's case. I think our best shot at OT right now might be with our current TE Marshall Pritchett's old high school teammate Wilson Zierer. This is shaping up as an Alabama vs Auburn battle. He really like Auburn's aviation program. We don't offer that at Bama, but did present him a really good alternative major that has him thinking hard. On the defensive line front, We lead for Nolan Wilson, but this will be a battle with Miami and Ole Miss. This is another one where relationships might win out. We were in on him early before everyone else. Also believe that we lead for Tank Jones. He is being recruited as a Wolf LB, but also our Bandit position. The staff could see him growing into a defensive lineman like LT Overton since he is already 260 as a senior in high school. Like I mentioned above, Titan Davis was a big miss on the defensive line front, but we positioned ourselves nicely with other prospects. I'll try my best to pop in time to time when I get information. Roll Tide!

Competition was pretty good, beat a good Covington team twice, once regular season and in the playoffs, gets the ball out quick, most of his yards he threw in first half's of games, he's the real deal, word in West Tennessee is he likes Kiffen
