Aucoin... not highly rated yet, but appears to be an excellent blocking TE prospect. Bama wants one of these badly this year.

Josh Perry... I don't know much about him myself. Just know that Bama's coaches are high on him.


You guys end up with these two.

As for White, someone whose info I trust a lot has been saying his dad has wanted him at Bama for a while now.

Bama's in good position for Rashan Gary,

I'll add to that and say that if Marlon Davidson transfers back to his old HS in Montgomery, Bama feels like it has about a 50/50 shot

We'll see. But I really don't see Lawrence anywhere but here.

Amen.

I'm not gonna sit here and cite sources that I don't have. I just feel like the opportunity for early playing time his dad being a legacy and new energy with coach o, who has coached multiple NFL defensive linemen, will eventually have Lawrence at LSU. I do think grimes is an amazing recruiter, and I hope Allen ends up at lau

He's going to be an animal for whomever he plays for. This is the type of kid you want on your team because he just lives and breathes the game and is a ballplayer. He's not one of those ":( :( :( they want me at safety but I want to be a quarterback" guys, he just wants to be on the field.

His recruitment will be interesting considering a lot of LSU, Ole Miss, Alabama and Arkansas fans think they're the frontrunners.

I don't think bama gets Lawrence. As stated, he is better suited in our system as a gap penetrating DT, not an edge setter at DE. I don't know what to feel about White. He seems to enjoy the royal treatment from bama, but I think he'll be on LSU's campus next month. Bama will likely keep Shyheim Carter and pick up Josh Perry. LSU has some higher rated guys in the fold above Perry. Perry is friends with Carter, so that could work in y'all favor. Mykel Jones to bama wouldn't surprise me. Our WR depth is deep, and will be for a long time. I feel better about Willie Allen to LSU after what I've read. However, he's no Cam Robinson.

I suppose he could wind up there.

And I suppose that could be Kate Upton ringing my cell phone right now.

Could be...

Correct. All 10 or so of the DL I've mentioned will sign with us, in addition to all of the Louisiana players mentioned.

Good luck stopping us on this one. You'll need it with Jones.

No. On these guys, it isn't an opinion. And I never said we were going to land all of them. Heck, that would be crazy even for Bama's recruiting standards. I simply said we were in pretty good shape for them. They've all indicated we're at the top of their list (at least top 2-3).

So, no. Not it really isn't all my opinion.

I wouldn't say that about Perry. Based on what I've read, it's thought he could rocket up the lists this Summer during the camps. Putting all your stock on "higher rated" 10 months before Signing Day isn't good advice.
