2017 5 star SG DJ Harvey has a offer. Doesn't know if he will take a visit here but we are recruiting him the hardest along with 5 other teams. Arizona holds the CB lead.

Grad Transfer Julian Walters hasn't heard from Bama according to his coach...

John Petty isn't a lock to Kentucky. Sources close to him want him to stay home and rep Bama. CAJ and Left stopped by his school last week. The staff has been on him pretty hard.

The staff didn't make it in to see Jamal Johnson or Austin Wiley last week...

Christian Vital probably won't be able to visit due to him wanting to commit in April...

Talked about LG Gill didn't mention Bama in the update soo...lol

I think Avery thought his name alone would attract top recruits and he was somewhat right but not like he thought. He's got many recruits to consider us, but now the staff has to step up and when they're considering us, finish it! Get them to commit! I think Avery is doing a decent job for a coach who's never recruited before but the staff has to step up if that stuff is true. Don't get me wrong, I think they're doing a good job tho. I think he'll learn from his mistakes and get better throughout his time at Bama.

Yall multiple comments in the update was about how hard Avery and his staff have been going after some of these guys. We've been down a staff member for a lot of this, so now we will also have Pelphrey out there too.

That's what I'm thinking the problem was. They had to recruit and were down a staff member at the same time. Had to make time to interview Pelphrey and show him around while recruiting at the same time. They've been busy and they've still done pretty good. The main thing I'm happy about is they're going very hard after Petty.

This. We've already seen Avery's work ethic from last year. Just because he didn't have time to visit a couple recruits doesn't mean he's been sitting on his arse. They're probably just prioritizing the transfer market and got swamped.

Ferg committed to Arizona. I remember he said his grandmas death made him decommitt from us, that was a lie bc why would he leave Bama to go to Zona when he lives in Texas?

That sweat-hog coach must have promised Ferguson the world. Didn't he visit Arizona right before us or right after us?
