Where things stand 12/11 (board update)

[TiderJack]

Look at the offer list. And Alabama didn't offer until last week, so Saban didn't create this interest in him.

Agreed. To your earlier point, kids from New York never get rated high since it is considered a b'ball state and have bad football.

He will probably get another star now

Bama bump!!!

He will probably get another star now

 

[BamaMan09]

The guy from New York has several CBs for Penn State. Distance might be a factor.

 

[BJ4TIDE]

Similar to Barmore last year (he did get upgraded to a 4* late in the process). We always tend to find a sleeper in every class.

Josh Jacobs was a big time sleeper. Guys like this are another product of Saban's "process," I think.

Latest update on Christian Williams makes it seem like LSU is a potential landing spot.

We are visiting a DT from NYC whose name escapes me at the moment....contingency plan.

It's hard to tell this time of year what noise is real and what is due to building drama.

My guess would be Hunte is a backup option for Sophser, as Ika appears to LSU bound. does that seem to be correct? Or do you think we could take him regardless given our need for depth in the front 7?

I think it may be an opportunity for added depth if we lose out on CWill. Just my opinion.

Yes, that's why I said he is a contingency plan. The only benefit of some kids waiting until Feb to sign is that we have options if others fall through.

So, if we are at 24 commits with us probably taking 28 overall, do we sign over or under 25 on the 19th?

No expert here but my guess will be under...just playing the odds!

Any chance we land Ty Robinson? Don’t know much about him. I just read where CNS visited him last week.

Nebraska.

Yea, read where after Saban visited all 11 recruiters for the Huskers flew down there and spent the entire day with him.

 

[TiderJack]

Here is an article with info on when some of our targets are signing and who they are considering, along with a list of our early signees and ones they feel will wait until Feb.

Well Scott Frost and staff are quite worried about us. I don't know if Ty is a take but he certainly is at Nebraska.

Be nice to snag him

this Gattis will get flem and we are taking his HS QB this year as a walk on. Saban told RJ he's like Coop.

Here is an evaluation article on Fleming and his highlight video is ridiculous. Big at 6' 3" and runs like the wind. This would be an incredible get out of Pennsylvania and hoping Gattis gets him like you say.

Probably not too much with Diaz being promoted.

Diaz probably helped a great deal
