No Cam Robinson?

If yes, who gets bumped?


Some people believe Mama has the potential to play LT. To a lesser extent Ross Pierschbacher, who is a shorter Grant Hill. He's got long arms, great feet, and has shown analyst for several years that his technical skills are very advanced.

Now since Bucc of all people is excluding him, I'd ask too. He's spent too many words on Cam Rob to turn back now

Zo and Evans are interchangeable at this point in the game

I like Evans ability to play multiple D positions think Hightower, and Zo is like Hubbard

If UGA lands Evans or AU for that matter, Bama will turn up the heat and likely has a great shot at Zo if that happens

As of today no CRob and Mag is right I've been the biggest one saying we get him

So much has changed over the last month in his recruitment, and I'm referring to his desires and his immediate fam letting him know their wishes, the sister going in-state instead of Bama was a huge tell (more than it appeared)

There is still a long way to go but as of now the staffs confidence in landing Mama and taking a commitment from Pierschbacher (5 tech OL, likely a OG to me but feet and movement look a lot better than most OL in this class) I think are telling, could I be totally wrong on CRob? Sure but it doesn't lookalike he will be at Bama as of today

I think you're taking what Scout said for more than it's worth TBH.

ETA: I mean overall, not just Robinson...

I was hearing rumblings from fam member in Ouachita before that was posted

I'm hoping we still land him, but if we get him I guess bump Ermon off

Lol What's funny is I went through and put that together and didn't post it a couple days ago

Then Scout guy said what he did and it made me do a double take

I need to re-structure it I guess

Do you think we would take that many with losing who we lost etc Mag?

I think Cam Rob in the end goes to Bama. Season hasn't started, our hype hasn't even begun. Right now the other teams are riding high and will until actual games are played and these recruits see the results before their eyes.

In the end I think they have an off year, we have another great one and the lure to start from day one at a University which would guarantee him being a first rounder will be too much to pass up.

Zo is a higher priority than Evans. Evans is certainly a take, but if you look at the overall prospect board (not the positional prospect board) Bama has Zo higher.

He's similar to Zo, but has a higher ceiling.

Zo has a longer standing relationship with the staff so in that regard I agree, but with Evans I just have a feeling that staff covets his durability and his football IQ, he is one of those guys you love to have on your team regardless of position. I could see Bama taking both if both were cool with it, that's the absolute best case scenario

I'd be happy to get one of Carter/Evans. I want Carter though, he is going to kill it in college.

I'm inclined to think UGA gets one and Bama gets one, both of them together would be just unfair

JMO, but I think Evans ends up being the better player once it's all said and done.

This is what I think TS and a more perfect for at Jack which is really what we need after our stacked DL class last yr

Zo Carter has the larger frame to become a DE IMO

Carter would have to put on a shite ton of weight to play DE for us.

Some of the folks that were previously confident on Cam Rob have all but convinced me that LSU has taken over his recruitment at this point... obviously, I hope that changes soon!!!

But FWIW, Here's my take on the class:

QB: David Cornwell
RB: Bo Scarborough
WR: Davion Hall
WR: Derek Kief
TE: Tyler Luatua
OL: JC Hassenauer
OL: Dominick Jackson
OL: Damien Mama
OL: Montel Mcbride
OL: Ross Pierschbacher
OL: Viane Talamaivo
DL: Johnny Dwight
DL: Charles Mosley (Elam and Frazier stay home)
DL: OJ Smith
LB: Rashaan Evans
LB: Shaun Dion Hamilton
LB: Keith Holcombe
LB: Raekwon McMillan
LB: Christian Miller
LB: Zach Whitley
DB: Ronnie Clark
DB: Kalvarez Bessent
DB: CJ Hampton
DB: Marlon Humphrey
DB: Chris Williams
K: JK Scott

He has the frame, just like J Allen (who's frame size once he hit campus shocked the hell outta me)
