Lots of ties between Alabama and these north Louisiana kids. Ronnie Clark and OJ Smith may help this class be epic.

Just like last year they thought we only offered Falkins in an attempt to trick LSU into offering him and taking up a spot in their class.




The LSU staff will seriously regret not offering Falkins in 2 or 3 years, he was a stud this Spring

So I understand that the Harris kid and the new commit, OJ Smith, are talking about playing ball together?

If we were to have a choice between Harris and Cornwell, which one would we take?

I've seen very little footage on Cornwell and none on Harris FYI.

Many look at Cornwell as more when than if. Some folks already have him ahead of Bateman and Morris, competing for the starting job as a true frosh.

Cornwell is definitely the fan favorite due to the connection being established for this long, and he definitely should be.

Everyone is pretty much on equal ground for the offer. Performance is the main thing, but the post offer reaction needs to be known before it actually happens.

Knowing which one will be your QB is probably just as important as knowing who the best one is. The best may not commit, thus it could be a fruitless venture initially...

Possibly, but one of the scout guys said they spoke with him yesterday and he was supposed to be arriving in T-Town today... TIFWIW

question, why doesn't our commit list on any site include bradley bozeman who took a greyshirt last year? he should be counting in with this current class.

Usually those guys don't get added till the end

I REALLY like OJ, he is a more powerful harder to deal with (because of his athleticism which goes a long way at NG) NG prospect than we've had since Cody

Also the question about the QBs earlier I think staff is prepping to add both Cornwell and Harris as the 2 QBs in this class and let the chips fall, although I think OJ commitment helps us with Harris Leslie isn't gonna give up since he's an athletic QB and he LOVES that type (had an offer out as a QB to ArDarius Stewart last yr before they offered a lot of other QBs, tells you all you need to know about his talent evaluation and his stubbornness toward the more athletic QBs)

This class is shaping up quite nicely IMHO

Didn't Cornwell pull away from an team he was interested because they accepted an offer from another QB?

All I know is we need to get Cornwell, he is the future of this program. That Harris kid looks really good, but in the end it comes down to who can win you the game in the end. Thats Cornwell.

Great arm, and see's the whole field.

No OU didn't offer him because they had a QB who was a legacy Sooner but not as highly ranked wanna commit

but he's never mentioned he didn't want another QB in the same class that I can remember
