Rave reviews from Bama commits and targets from Mike Farrell: LINK (free)

OJ Howard won "Lightning in a Bottle" and "Physical Prowess" awards:

quote:

I have never seen a tight end with so many gifts in my decade-plus covering prospects and his performance would have been even better had he been targeted more. Howard is a clear five-star, there's no hiding that, but can he make a push up to the top of the rankings charts?


Rueben Foster was honorable mention for Physical Prowess Award.

Cooper Bateman won the Poise Under Pressure Award

Matthew Thomas won the Mr. Pick Award:

quote:

This award usually goes to a defensive back, but Miami (Fla.) Booker T. Washington linebacker Matthew Thomas had three interceptions in one game against Georgia quarterback commitment Brice Ramsey from Kingsland (Ga.) Camden County and came very close to a few others


Carl Lawson won the Most Disappointing Award

This guy is a complete stud and what some forget is he still has a year of HS left. I also believe he is completely solid to Bama. He will create many match up issues.

Racean Thomas

-Wants to stay close to home(kept reiterating it), have family see his games.

-Wont wait till NSD to make a decision

-Right now depth chart not a concern, could be later.

Bone also says he doesnt think Matthews is 100% committed to UGA, but went onto saying he doesnt see him in this class.

I think I read a month ago that Bone said he doesnt think Matthews has a committable offer.

Most likely, but doesn't change the point I was trying to make. He will be a 5 star and will have an immediate impact on Bama's offense in 2013.

Matthews told Rivals.com at The Opening that he, "was going to commit to Alabama, but jumped the gun a little by committing to Georgia."

Oh look. The new Bama recruiting thread is full of Auburn and Georgia fans posting nothing of substance. That's something you don't see everyday. Great job admins. You've really outdone yourselves.
Who cares?

Chicken didn't anchor the first thread and ban posters due to discussion like what's going on right now. He anchored and banned posters due to them posting premium info. It was an honest mistake on their part, and I fully expect Chicken to bring them back if they want to come back. Since then, the premium info posting has dropped around 99%, and I'm not saying it was all Alabama fans doing it. But Chicken made his point clear.

We can discuss, at will, what we want to, as long as it deals with recruiting.

I can't see him commiting anywhere other than Alabama.

If I had to guess, based on things I've read, his top four (in order) would be the following:

1) Alabama (way out in front)
2) Georgia
3) Clemson
4) Florida
