At this point I don't care. Looks a bit ridiculous when all the other places have some of these guys so high and rivals acts like they don't even exist.

I wasn't really being serious.

So how good is this Nkemdiche guy? I've heard we lead for him, is he a legit top five guy for next year?

Extremely good. At this point, many analysts consider him the #1 prospect

May be the best in the country for the 2013 class, and Alabama is way out in front right now.

He's basically a lock. In a Rivals interview the other day, he said "it's going to take a whole lot" to beat out Auburn, and he almost committed at the minicamp a few weeks ago


Auburn hired his former high school coach as a GA. So, yeah.

He wants to play Jack in Alabama's 3-4, but he's most certainly going to grow by fall 2013. He's probably looking at DE in two years.

That was my initial thought based on the pic.

He's got the frame to add a good amount of weight, no way I see him planing jack in the future.

Multiple analyst have said he would be a 5 star if he was part of the 2012 class so that says allot about him.

I'm not high on Yeldon or Kwon. A lot of people were high on Kwon based on his highlight video.

He's a tweener. He should go to TCU and be one the best Dog LBs they have ever had.

Then you must just be high. Both players are absolute studs. I do not care about what others said about Kwon at this event. Dude shiwed out at The Opening. That's where much more talent was than in Hoover. Kwon ran a sub 4.6 forty there. Nothing stiff about that at his size.


(would offer my thoughts/praise for yeldon too, but he's not ours so I wont bother)

I'd rather him just be a DE.

He's just as good or better than his friend Rueben Foster (Bama Commit). Both look to be Top 10 players in 2013. Well on all the sites except for Rivals that is.

Straight line speed has everything to do with stiffness

yeah. You're right. I've seen tons of stiff guys his size run a sub 4.6 forty.

(we all have the eye roll emoticon, freshman. Know when to use it. You dont know as much as you'd like us to think about football. I played the game for 7 years - including time as a walkon in college - and coached for 3 years. I know what I'm talking about here friend)

He's not that big really. Even if he bulks up to 225 he still doesn't have a position at Alabama. My question is could he add 20 pounds and still run like that? It's all about frame when it comes to that issue.

I have actually seen stiff guys run sub 4.5's. Jimmy Johns comes to mind.

I'm not knocking the kid. Five years ago we would be begging to get him to Alabama. I'm just not as high on him as some people are.

By the way, not that we have to justify opinions, but I have coached for nearly 10 years.
