Tua interview LINK

He said he wants to OV to USC, and "nothing is final until pen hits the paper." He also stopped by Cal before going to the Opening regional.

Lol! I'm surprised the political posts didn't go further than what it did. If you want an e fight, talk politics and religion. There would be some ban hammers going out left and right. Lol Let's keep it to recruiting guys. It's complicated enough these days with the kids. They provide us much to talk about.

Of course he's gonna visit those schools. I really hope he sticks with Bama but it wouldn't surprise me at all for him to play closer to home. If I had to bet one way or the other, I'd bet he'll end up playing at a school closer to home.

Remember, visiting other schools can be a positive........a chance for the kid to get a great experience (travel, food, etc...) AND a chance to interact with other kids. Yes he may decide to decommit, but he can also use the opportunity to talk to others about Bama. Part of the recruiting game......

Last I read, he was on the fence so probably not.

I talked earlier about how much of an impact Tosh Lopoi was with teaching our outside lb's and edge rushers. Tim williams and Ryan Anderson told us about last year, now Christian Miller is. Here's an excerpt from the article.

Miller has been a first-hand witness of how much outside linebackers coachTosh Lupoi has changed the position he teaches -- both in its pass-rushing philosophy and in trying to mold his players into complete linebackers.

The former four-star prospect, according to the 247Sports Composite, watched as both Tim Williams and Ryan Andersonblossomed off the edge. The duo combined for 16.5 sacks last year in Lupoi’s first on-field season.

“I can already tell with his techniques that I’ve been using this year, I myself, my pass rushing is getting way better,” Miller said in Phoenix. “I just can’t wait until when I get out there. Hopefully I can have the same success as Tim and Ryan because, like I said, his techniques, they work as long as you take the coaching. I’m excited.”

I figured Tosh was going to be a recruiter and a coach in name only. Glad to be wrong.

I think Jeremy Pruitt will only be at Bama a year or two before he takes a head coaching job somewhere. I hope Tosh will be the next DC at Bama.

If Pruitt does leave soon, Lupoi will definitely be a candidate.

Understandable, we were all use to that type of coach with Lance Thompson

Hey man. What has happened to TSWSNBN? The only person to post there in the last two weeks has been JAG.
