That visit was sudden. We have Troy Brown on campus for an official next week at least.

I think when it's all said and done, Sexton will be at UA. I think that relationship is too strong.

Never count out the blue bloods and their ability to sell.

I'm sure this will be a stressful weekend on the coaching staff with targets like Sexton, Reese, and Jones all visiting elsewhere.

I didn't realize it when I saw when they were visiting, but we will have Jones and Reese visiting the same weekend (Sept. 30th)

If anyone has ESPN insider, this would be a good article to post for us. The picture is of Avery Johnson so I imagine Alabama is one of the schools discussed.

It would be cool if we could go ahead and close on a recruit. The longer we wait, the more nervous I get.

Ok he sent me screenshots of what it said. Nothing we don't know. Just said we had a big commitment from T-Ferg and then he left and went overseas. And then it listed all the recruits we have a good shot with.

I would post the pics but I'm on a phone and don't know how

Edit: Here it is on imgur LINK

Thank you for posting.


That is some pretty terrible info for ESPN to be charging for though. All of that could be found for free within 5 minutes of a Google search. I'm ready for some real news. Hopefully some articles start popping up after the visit this weekend and weekends to come.

I think in-home visits can start September 9th so we should be hearing news soon about what prospects they're going to see.

I think we got a favorable draw only having to play UK, Florida, and A&M once with 2 of those being at home.

Yeah for sure, and I'm not really worried about SOS or RPI because our out of conference gives us plenty of chances for quality wins.

I can't believe we finally get to play on CBS on a Saturday. We host UK on Feb. 11. Coleman will be packed and CRAZY that day. Good shot to beat them I think.

When is the last time we got to do that? That's pretty exciting.

Tough stretch between playing @AU to the home game vs Kentucky. Would like for us to go at least 2-2 in the road games and 2-1 at home. Other than that, if we are to be improved this year under CAJ, then I'd say that's a pretty manageable schedule.
