The james Lang saga just won't go away. It now appears that his mother has taken charge of the recruiting. She's even hired an attorney, and it looks like she's gotten Ken Harris out of the picture. (Whatever happens, I hope that Harris is gone, for Lang's sake. ) She has said that James will take all of his visits and that his recruitment is wide open.
That being said, I still think that James ends up in the NBA next year. There appear to be serious academic issues to be resolved before he can qualify, some say that it is next to impossible that he will qualify. If he goes to college, Louisville is his choice. It isn't clear who mama likes best. If, and it is a huge if, he becomes eligible and decides that he wants to come to Bama, it is a sure thing that we'd find a schollie for him, even though we already have three commitments for next year. Taylor is our only commitment who looks like he could be a 5, and he seems to be more of a 4. Davidson looks like a 4, while Atkins seems to be a small 4 or big 3. We really haven't had a true center type since Roy Rogers.
