The coaching staff believes Dominick Jackson is the best JuCo player in his class.

Not surprising really. From what I can tell, Cristobal values mean, nasty, play through the whistle type linemen above all else. Jackson appears to possess an excessive amount of those qualities.

I could see him coming in like gangbusters next May and bumping Austin Shepherd to RG. Not necessarily for something Shepherd did wrong, but because he's practiced there and the recurring rumor of displeasure with what's currently at Guard depth wise.

Jackson seems to be the inverse of Leon Brown on film, doesn't look like he struggles at runblocking at the POA...

His passblocking needs some work, but that's something that can be worked on. Runblocking is all about attitude, and you either have that or you don't.

Agreed.

DJ Fluker showed effort can overtake technique in value in play, save for the WKU game.

Enrolling early would do him some good, but he looks farther along than Brown did. I maintain the belief though that Brown wasn't intended as a starter year one, but as help in the LT situation in '14...

Is Ermon Lane close to choosing Alabama? A lot of movement in his crystal ball today.

Yeah...assuming Cyrus goes pro the LT depth is gonna be rough in '14. We might end up with a true freshman starter and a first year starter at QB. Not a great formula.

He tweeted something a few days back about Bama recruiting him the hardest and is apparently pretty open about his favorite on the camp circuit.

Last I had read though he was still planning all his officials and then a commitment. Could have changed...

Maybe he's talking up Bama at the Opening? Supposedly that's what he was doing at the Rivals FSC

He's good insurance at the very least.

Brandon Greene
Leon Brown
...Cam Robinson

A "fill-in" in 2014 at LT until Cam Robinson, assuming we get him, is ready. Not unlike what we did with Cyrus.

It was a Miami and USC insider that made the predictions in the last 20 minutes.

Has to be what it is then...like Robert Foster last yr who was pretty verbal I remember at a few camps (not this early though)

& to Alabamya...I'm really trying to contain myself from posting, Cap goin in H.A.M. Though

I'll keep contending that CR is a done deal until I hear otherwise, don't care what he tweets

Not surprising. He lives across the street from the Stanford campus.

We may see him in the future though. He and Cornwell could have some epic playoff games against each other.
