Someone on BOL is saying that Bradley Bozeman is heading to Tuscaloosa to enroll right now.

Who the frick dropped off the team? I hope the reports about Robert Foster weren't wrong.

I can't imagine it's him on the same day he's tweeting plane ticket photos

Just confirmed that Alabama offensive line commit Dominick Jackson is on campus visiting today. He joins fellow commit Stephen Roberts, who is also visiting today.

I'm glad. Like i said several pages ago, i thought we had the room for him (though i didn't know this to be a fact) but that the staff would be stubborn about removing what they called a medically induced greyshirt.

He may end up never playing a meaningful down at Bama but i will always like him cause he is all Bama all the time.

Having said all that he is probably just enrolling as a part-time student (that doesn't start your eligibility clock).

Like I've said before, this kid isn't a Bama lock. No such thing exists. Michigan is on the rise and Marlon is a highly valuable prospect. Shouldn't be a surprise if he wants to visit.

It appears that Bozeman is not taking Rob Foster's spot:

Glad to see Foster heading to T-Town.. Hopefully the Clearinghouse doesn't come with any B.S.

This is what held up Foster according to his high school coach:

quote:

"He took his online course and they originally okay'ed it. Now they came back and said it's a mandatory 14 day class. He made an A in it and finished up all the requirements in 12 days. The NCAA said, 'no, it's a mandatory 14 day (class).'


quote:

"He's en route to Alabama, so he's good to go," said Lyons.


quote:

"We're just waiting for the official transcript right now. He's moving forward and should be ready to go. They're going to get him right over there. Camp starts on Saturday and I believe they have a running test on Friday. He's on the fast track right now."



If they screw this kid over I'm gonna be pissed.

Great news for Bozeman. I've been really hoping that he would get to come in with the rest of his class this fall. Kid has a great attitude. Have to wait and see how a spot opened up. Guess we'll find out Friday at the latest.

Also really stoked it looks like RF is getting in. He might be inheriting the #1 WR spot from Coop in 2 years

Glad to hear it as well...

quote:

I'm pretty excited. I'm packing my stuff up now and I'll head to Tuscaloosa tomorrow. I have been busting it all summer trying to get back in shape and I don't believe I will be limited at all once I get to fall camp. I am excited to get back out there and play football again."

Bozeman said that despite originally believing he would not be a member of the 2013 Crimson Tide, he remained in touch with the coaches and several members of the 2013 signing class.

"I have spoken with Coach (Mario) Cristobal several times this summer as well as with Coach Saban and they just kept telling me to be ready to play and I took them seriously. I also have stayed in touch with Reuben Foster, who is a good friend of mine and grew up with me."

I know the fanbase will love him if true, he and the staff compares his game to Vinnie Sunseri

ETA: Thinking of Keaton Anderson for '15

He's a good player and all; just didn't know we had much interest or think we had room with the limited number of spots

I'm pretty surprised as well, especially at this point. With the news on Foster and Bozeman coming on the same day, one has to think the tie in some way.

That's a good thing. How's his talent level though?




And just been thinking.. we are 2 days away from our first fall practice report.

Guess we had to meet our white LB quota for this class

'11 - Dillon Lee
'12 - Walker Jones
'13 - Keith Holcombe

Also wonder when's the last time we had a class with 2 players from T-town. I'm going to have to go watch Holcombe and Bo go head to head on 10/18 when Hillcrest plays County
