Was DL not a priority this year because it seems to me we really didn't make a push on too many defensive linemen?

Nevertheless, Saban has hauled in another Top 5 caliber class.

We are still recruiting 2 4-star players (Liner and Reed) and 2 5-star players (Vanderdoes and Robinson) that project to the D-line. They just haven't made up their minds yet.

I know we are more than likely going to get Liner, but where do we stand with Reed and Vanderdoes?

Vanderdoes is all about the visit. If we can wow him and his dad he will come to Bama.

I think that Vanderdoes has a spot if he wants one.

I think Reed's offer is based on what A'Shawn Robinson decides to do. Simply put, if we get Robinson, Reed goes elsewhere.

Yes.

Would anyone with a Rivals account care to post what Andrew Bone says in his article called "Insider Report: The Finish?"

Don't copy and paste, just summarize.

I don't know why, as soon as I do, people will just say Bone doesn't know shite like always (but seriously)

*Robinson expected to go to Texas
*Reed is a take at any time, his appearance at Ole Miss this weekend may be a tell
*No room for Bell
*No room for Poggi, unless he pays a year or Bama misses with 3 other DTs
*Tunsil to UGA
*Vanderdoes still an unknown
*Foster likely to Auburn
*Will be a surprise if Conner commits to anyone but Ole Miss
*Liner to Bama

Tenpenny signs with Bama, as does Jon Cook(grade concerns).

BOL is dropping some Nuggets in about an hour. I guess we could bump them against Bone's stuff and see what's what.

But for the record, who the hell does Bone think we land for there to be no room for Bell and Poggi?

He basically has us missing on most of our remaining targets.

Is this a code word for a recruit I don't know about?

That's what I am wondering. He has us only getting Kamara and Liner on signing day so how can we not have room for Bell and Poggi?

Nothing new. Just a lot of people doubting/questioning that he was never someone that Bama made a push to sign
