I try to keep up with Louisiana kids ho go to other schools and was wondering about the ones at Alabama. I kno Collins is starting and will probably be in a few Pre-Season magazines. Anyone else about to make an impact? Robinson maybe?

Sylve

Sims and Hootie just recently reported. Haven't heard anything yet but both are at positions with a lot of upperclassmen. Will need them both to step up in '15

CNS seems to really like Sylve and he's penciled in as a starting CB at the moment

Williams had a great spring and A-day. Not sure he's big enough yet to be an every down OLB (like Devall) but he might could have a role as a pass rushing specialist this season but he'll have to fend off incoming frosh Rashaan Evans.

Falkins was getting a lot of hype this time last year but didn't get much game action. Like with Sims, we'll need him to step up in '15 when we lose Cooper, White, and Jones

CRob will likely start at LT

Sims and hootie haven't really had the chance to shine yet as they just enrolled in the spring. I really think Williams can be a player for us, as he as gained a lot of good weight and he has quite the first step off the edge. I think Tim will contribute a lot on third down for us this year.

Sylve has stepped up as well and looks to be a leading candidate to play at one of the corner positions, especially with the uncertainty of the severity of eddie Jackson's injury.

Sylve shouldn't get beat deep with his speed, something we lacked last year.

I want him returning punts and kicks immediately.

Was kind of surprised Sylve has never gotten more serious consideration at punt return. At least I don't recall any notes from camp since he's been here. Jones still scares me back there.

I'm rooting for Collins, I talked with him at Dutchton his junior year and he was LSU but I think he just decided out of state he wouldn't have the expectations/people mooching off him.

I'm ready to watch him blow up this year
