I've been here, just been posting in the DBZ thread on the M/TV board, avoiding whatever is happening on the OTB, and hanging out with my brother. It's been a pretty slow recruiting time up til this week.

'14 MD OT Damian Prince still lists Bama among his schools he thinks about and has no schools that stand out. Currently he admits he has the best relationships with Rutgers(3 visits already) and tOSU. He hopes to make more trips to those schools, along with USCe. He wants to get down to Bama, Florida, and FSU IF his schedule permits.

He has also dropped 20 pounds, down from 310 to 290. Really showed in his face, doesn't look like his profile pic as much...

DT Dontavious Russell committed to Georgia. We were his leader at one point.

Gerry Hamilton from 247 projects Cameron Robinson to sign with Bama.

Speaking of Robinson, do yourselves a favor and read the thread about him being aggravated on the LSURb. Pure comedic gold.

I believe his last visit before he decided was suppose to be his Auburn visit this past Saturday, yet now he's visiting Bama on Thursday.

Looks like they finally offered, which puts them well into play for him.

RB or S? S is my guess.

He's an athlete good enough to play either like Landon Collins could have, but Starks is being recruited as a RB and wants to stay on offense.

He's a big back, but with very good speed and receiving ability. He has shown out at camps and 7-on-7s, which is hard to do as a RB. They are calling him the best RB to come out of Bishop Gorman, and Bishop Gorman produced Demarco Murray.

Highlights of the 2nd installment of Lorenzo Carter's Recruiting Diary (free content):

LINK

quote:

Since the last time we talked, I made a visit to Alabama.

It was a few weekends ago and it went real good. They really wanted to get me up there again, and one of the main reasons I went was because my parents hadn't been there yet. I think they had a good time, too. They got to talk to Coach [Nick] Saban a lot, so that was good.

To be honest, my mom talked to him the most.

It was her asking questions mostly, while me and my dad just sat there. She wanted to know about the recent incident with the players that got arrested. She brought that up. A lot of her co-workers love Georgia. You know Georgia fans were going to say stuff about Alabama. Anyway, Coach Saban let her know they really work with their players on growing up and being men. He said they try to develop you not just as a player, but as a person. I think she was satisfied with his answer.



Then, for some reason she was trying to talk about defense. I still haven't fully explained to my mom the difference between the 4-3 defense and the 3-4. So she was asking about that, which was kind of funny. Coach Saban seemed pretty cool with it, though. People say the 3-4 defense will hurt you in the long run. But he said they're actually wrong because a lot of NFL teams play the 3-4.




Alabama and Georgia are locks to make Carter's top five.

They'd have me play the Jack linebacker at Alabama. I like that and it fits me. I played linebacker as a 10th-grader. I like coming off the edge as a rush standout, having to go head up against some 6-feet-6 corn fed offensive tackle.

I definitely like Alabama. They'll definitely be in my top five with Georgia when I put that out.


quote:

Right now, I'm running track. I'm doing the 100 [meters), 200, 4x100 and the shot put. I just won the shot in an event. I threw it 43 feet. I still haven't run the 100 in a meet yet. I ran a 22.97 in the 200, though. That was so bad. It was snowing and I didn't even stretch.




quote:

Right now, I'd say Alabama and Georgia are probably recruiting me the hardest. But I get a bunch of letters from Ohio State. When I was in Memphis over the weekend, my mom called and said I got 20 handwritten letters from LSU. They still haven't offered yet.
