Also, pretty sure Simmons had something to do with the Bo Davis fiasco, so if we landed him, we prolly would have been in some legit NCAA trouble. Kids a baller though, but we dodged a bullet there.

Here is an Al.com article with video included of Derrick Henry getting his first TD of the season. He flat out threw a guy and then trucked another one

Also, there's the domestic violence issue with Simmons beating up that woman. After the Jonathan Taylor fiasco, Saban probably wouldn't have been able to keep him anyway.

Tony Brown is one of my favorite players. He's messed up, been in the dog house, but he didn't quit. I respect the hell out of him for sticking with it.

An official visit to Alabama is in the works for newly-minted five-star defensive end Eyabi Anoma, and there is a strong feeling in the recruiting community the Baltimore St. Frances standout will wind up with the Crimson Tide.

However, the 6-foot-5, 230-pound prospect said that is not the case.

In addition, Amona spoke about where Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State, and UCLA all sit with is recruitment. He also gave his thoughts on Alabama.

Anoma is the No. 20 prospect in the 2018 class.  He is also the No. 2 defensive end in the class.

While some of Alabama's commitments are still facing scheduling changes following Hurricane Irma, the majority of the Tide's future played over the weekend, including a new addition to the list in Vernon Jackson.

Here's a look at how they, or in the case no statistics have been provided, their team performed.

2018

Stephon Wynn, DE, Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy -- The 2-0 No. 1-ranked Ascenders' game against St. John's College (Md.) was cancelled due to the after-effects of Hurricane Irma.

Xavier Williams, WR, Hollywood (Fla.) Chaminade-Madonna -- The 1-1 Lion's game at Blanche Ely was cancelled due to Hurricane Irma.

Jalyn Armour-Davis, CB, Mobile (Ala.) St. Paul's Episcopal -- The Saints moved to 3-0 on the season after a 9-6 win over Williamson. Armour-Davis injured his knee in the first quarter. There's no word on the severity of the injury at this point, however, AL.com reported that, according to Saints head coach Steve Mask, it's not expected to be season-ending.

Cameron Latu, DE, Salt Lake City (Utah) Olympus -- The Titans moved to 3-2 on the season with a 45-42 win at West. Latu hauled in a 69-yard touchdown catch in the victory.

Quay Walker, LB, Cordele (Ga.) Crisp County -- The 3-0 Cougars' game against Rutland was cancelled due to Hurricane Irma.

Tommy Brown, OT, Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei -- The No. 1-ranked Monarchs moved to 4-0 on the season with a 62-14 win over over Bergen Catholic. Brown kept five-star USC quarterback commit JT Daniels upright and able to throw for 299 yards and five touchdowns.

Jordan Davis, LB, Memphis (Tenn.) Southwind -- The Jaguars moved to 4-1 on the season with a 42-0 shutout of Overton. Davis complied nine tackles, including three sacks, three tackles for a loss, and one forced fumble. 

Vernon Jackson, ATH/LB, Boling (Texas) -- The Bulldogs lost their season-opener 49-14 at Halletsville. Jackson managed to run for one touchdown in the second half, and played safety and a little bit of H-back in the loss.

Jarrett Bell, OG, Norco (Calif.) -- The Cougars dropped their third straight at Orange Lutheran, 41-28, falling to 0-3 on the season.

Slade Bolden, APB, West Monroe (La.) -- The Rebels moved to 3-0 with a 50-12 win against Wossman. Bolden threw for two touchdowns and ran for another in the victory.

Skyler DeLong, P, Fort Mill (S.C.) Nation Ford -- The Falcons got in the win column for the first time this season with a 14-7 victory at Lancaster.

2019

Trey Sanders, RB, Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy -- The 2-0 No. 1-ranked Ascenders' game against St. John's College (Md.) was cancelled due to the after-effects of Hurricane Irma.

Pierce Quick, OT, Hewitt-Trussville (Ala.) -- The Huskies moved to 3-0 on these season beating Grissom on the road 49-7. Quick helped keep quarterback Paul Tyson upright and able to pass for 287 yards and three touchdowns.

Deyavie Hammond, OG, Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy -- The 2-0 No. 1-ranked Ascenders' game against St. John's College (Md.) was cancelled due to the after-effects of Hurricane Irma.

Alabama remains in the hunt for the nation's top slot receiver, Jaylen Waddle, who announced his top six on Sunday night.

Along with the Crimson Tide, Florida State, Oregon, TCU, Texas, and Texas A&M made the cut for the Bellaire (Texas) Episcopal product.

Waddle emerged as a top target for the UA staff heading into the summer, only to solidify his standing after two stellar camp performances in June and July.

Last month, the four-star receiver caught up with BamaOnLine following is return from Tuscaloosa.

“The competition, that was my favorite part out there," Waddle said. "It was different, way different. I liked how the Bama guys held each other accountable."

Tide wide receivers coach Mike Locksley watched Waddle play on Friday night. Alabama also had the 5-foot-9.5, 175-pounder in attendance for its season-opener against FSU.

Waddle told BamaOnLine last month that the Tide would receive an official visit, the date of which has yet to be set.

The U.S. Army All-American is rated the No. 11 receiver and the No. 67 overall player in the country, per the industry-generated 247Sports Composite.

The Crystal Ball currently reads in favor of Alabama at 33 percent.

One of the 37 Ohio State mods made some interesting CBs today:

Nicholas Petit-Frere to Ohio State.
Jackson Carman to USC.
Justyn Ross to Clemson.
Micah Parsons back to Penn State.

Chris Rumph was underwhelming as a recruiter at Alabama. But looks like he's going to be a thorn recruiting Miller to Florida.

Definitely getting the feeling Bama's DL class might have a flip or 2 to them.

Still want that wardaddy from FSU's class...

With Texas not doing amazing right now, I could see us flipping Coburn. I think we will pull out a good dline class when all is said and done.
