Just a reminder that Dylan Moses, Thomas Fletcher and Trey Sanders play against Shaun Wade on ESPN2 in 15 minutes.

He is still relatively new to LB.

He does look more like a project than an early contributor though.

It was Moses he trucked before the goal line.

Moses didn't get low, and the lil fella trucked him.

Yeah, the top player in the country at ILB has got to own that fool on that play. Chris Allen would have decleated that kid on that play.

Moses flashing the speed that makes him elite though.

Bama coaches will get him coached up. Will make plays on Saturdays.

He struggles at the MLB position. It's just not natural for him. I think he will be far more effective playing OLB.

That speed and athleticism is fantastic. He is explosive.

Anybody who has actually played beyond high school knows, if you're thinking too much or if things aren't natural you aren't playing full speed.

For me, that is what I am seeing. This kid is an amazing talent though.

I'm behind on the game and just saw the Moses sack.

Does anyone else think he might be better coming off the edge? Tim Williams was his size in high school. I think he might be better as a full on attacker than a read and reacter .

As I have said this Dylan kid is elite talent. His explosiveness is off the charts.

He just got a roughing call but look at the speed at which he closes! Look at the explosive jump he makes which threw off the QB!

Man, I dont know what people were talking about when they were hating on him. This kid looks great if you look beyond the MLB and focus on his abilities and talent.

Even with playing MLB he is always in the action. He has 2 sacks and 4 or 5 QB hurries already. Don't know how many tackles, maybe 6?

He's a great athlete. No one denies that. He just looks really tentative when he has to read and react.

I think he would be a missile coming off the edge. Like you said he has two sacks already. Let him get after the QB on every down.

We have run stoppers. We need edge rushers after we lose Williams, Anderson and Allen.

The Sophomore OG for IMG that was committed to Alabama for 48 hours is playing too. His name is Evan Neal.

I don't know what number he is though.

Shaun Wade looks good so far.

The Junior CB from Trinity, 5-star Tyreke Johnson, is high on us too. One of the Rivals'guys predicted he would sign with Alabama last week.

It's hard to get excited for a long snapper, but Fletcher is a beast at snapping.

We have had some great ones over the last 4-5 years in Carson Tinker and Cole Mazza. I think Fletcher is on their level as well.

Shaun Wade is another one that has great athleticism.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him move to safety.

Most impressive player on TC is DJ Mathews. That kid looks like he would be hell in the slot

Yeah I believe the staff will evaluate where his strengths are and move him out there. He is definitely more OLB then MLB at this point of his development.

He isn't aggressive enough inside.

What a int by Wade. I take that back, no way he goes to safety. He definitely is staying at corner.

Great hips on the play. Very fluid.

Man we have to flip that kid
