KN has update on 4* CB Jalyn Armour-Davis. He is hoping to commit this summer. Armour-Davis says it's a tossup between AU, BAMA & FSU. Travis Williams has taken the lead on his recruitment and chats with Armour-Davis at least every other day. Says a lot of the time they talk about stuff that isn't related to football. T-WILL and Greg Brown both visited his school this spring. Malzahn talked to him before his track state finals as well. We wanted him to visit for BCW but doesn't sound like he will. He has an interesting plan for visits. Doesn't like to come to camps or junior day but instead pop in during the week so he can see what it's like to be a student athlete at the school. He committed to play in the Army All-American game yesterday 

Seems like Bama has fought their way back into this one. I am still hopeful we pull this out in part because of Travis Williams and fact we were his first offer. But sounds like this is a real battle. Need him to visit again before committing. Personally I think Armour-Davis is a more important target than Justyn Ross. AU doesn't get many chances to sign elite instate CBs and so they need to capitalize on this opportunity especially if Carlton Davis has a good year and leaves early. We will see what happens
