I will go back to what I said last year before Ardarius Stewart signed...I think the best spot for him is at safety. The kid has all the tools you could want at FS.

Right Bucs?

Hall didn't show up to his OV for the LSU game. I think we slow played him because we thought we had Hootie and Hampton in the bag. Turns out the bag has a hole in it.

Damn. Hope it isn't another Connor/ Bell situation.

Hootie must have just been informed that HaHa is coming back
This just means Bama will get the #1 safety in next year class because of the immediate playing time factor, no worries.

ArDarius Stewart is an excellent (even elite) athlete with a lot of the tools yes and he will play whatever position he is told and I'm almost certain he will succeed, just a damn fine football player

Had his parents not been pissed at Gardendale staff he likely would've been a 3-4 yr starter at QB for GHS in their 1st season in the murderers row 6A district before they were recently rearranged.

With him and Jordan Howard (who led the state in rushing despite that sched) with the right coach would've likely won the state, that's how good of an athlete AS is and instead he went to Fultondale HS and played both sides of the ball and mostly at S some CB on D and had a FHS record for INTs

He has a long frame and great size for a move over to S

Ok now on Hootie, heard some nasty rumors (not about him decommitting) but about him being cozy with an LSU booster, didn't wanna believe it but it got louder and louder then it just so happens that he decommits and S&S comes out and says they heard he had this planned or whatever pre-commitment, so why commit of you are unsure and I can absolutely understand him being unsure since he seemed to be not sure and all the comments etc on Dec 2nd

The kid wanted to play for LSU, grew up as a fan, but saw all his closest friends who were athletes commit to Bama then his parents who really had a great time and seemingly favored Bama (that might just be though because they want him happy) to commit to Bama, I may be viewed as optimistic but I believe since AA PW was signed and Saban, Kirby, Napier, & Burns can have contact and a handful of his friends are already committed to Bama and aren't wavering, then couple that with the fact that Les and D staff have been practically BEGGING Adams since and arent just gonna turn him back away, that he ends up back with Bama

Some of you really need to chill out and take a look at this class that has already been assembled

I guess we've still got time to sort things out this year.

With the way things have been going, I'm not counting anyone as a lock. Even our commits.

I don't think I've said it enough. We have a great class assembled, but it is a momentum game. We've had 3 players decommit with our last two committs being average players. Not worth. I think we are all joking ourselves by saying our DB situation is okay. This year was horrible. I don't see a stud corner on our roster. We are still in a battle with MH And Tabor.

I guess reality will set in for some of those who think 5 stars decommitting is whatever when LSU finishes with the number one class.

I know Saban is basically the db coach, but do any of you guys think that Greg Brown not being a very good recruiter is hurting us with all of the db's we have had decommit?
