Quick Recruiting Update

The coaches know more about the individual situations than we do!

are you really recruiting Kendrick as a wideout? Man, Larry has Will or Strong Safety written all over him. He has the speed and hits with power! Sure wish we could have found a position for him when he was here.

As far as stating the obvious, Kyle Jackson has committed....to UF. His best friend is Ciatric Fason. That would have been an amazing coup had you all won him over!!

I might add to this about why the staff pursues that guys that are longshots to qualify. It depends on how much of a longshot and whether the player just doesn't try hard in the classroom or he's just dumb as dirt and has zero chance of ever qualifying. IF the kid just isn't trying, there's a decent chance he can get his act together and still make it.

A shining example of this would be Tyrone Prothro last year. Almost all SEC recruiters gave up on him, thinking he was dead in the water in terms of his grades. Alabama never gave up on him and he managed to pull the chestnuts out of the fire academically. The point is, sometimes you don't give up on a guy. You have to dig a little deeper and find out what's the story with a kid's grades or test score. </font>

Yes,and I'm sure that's what CMS is doing...I believe he paid a visit up to HHS to check on a key recruit and I would be surprised if he did not do a little research while he was there. I believe CMS is doing very well in his 1st year at recruiting.

Where is Chris Nickson? Is he not being recruited by Bama? Just wondering. Thanks

Know, Chris Nickson has had an offer on the table from CMS for many months now but he wants some kind of guarentee he'll play QB. If you want a guarentee, buy a toaster.
